***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT PURDUE BOUNCE BACK GAME IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[Border Gopher]

1st round of what?

Sorry, I missed going dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot after that one

 

[Stuff]

Let Viotto play

 

[tikited]

Leidner 2.0

Leidner was/is light years better.

 

[oldman]

Looks like Iowa has the west locked up.

 

[GoodasGold]

Purdue was obviously stealing our signs leading up to this game.

That’s it!!!

 

[Cobra]

Let’s keep this shitty coaching staff for another 7 years cuz this is the best we can get?
Right...

 

[Slim Tubby]

Did we win?

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

He’s laughing all the way to the bank.

“Row the boat!”

Do you notice the resemblance?

 

[SHGopher]

Fleck picked the ideal time to slump.

 

[scools12]

That is not an excuse for this

Not making an excuse. The reality is there are players out in the field today who aren’t ready to be out there.

Blame the head coach all you want but he isn’t getting fired nor should he be fired.

 

[tikited]

Both programs are trending towards dumpster fire territory

With the new programs coming in combined with NIL issues...The Gophers are doomed. We will not see another 8-9 win season.

 

[short ornery norwegian]

Here's an idea.
AK plays the 1st half.
Kramer/Viotto plays the 2nd half.
Couldn't get any worse.

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

I wanna see another FG

 

[GoldMedalCounty]

Kick it?

Shut the program down? Its been awful but after Brewster sure you said the same thing minus NIL

 

[From the Parkinglot]

Go score 49 today so you don’t have to rely on your defense holding again.

Like I said. Only problem is you couldn’t compete a forward pass again in the second half.

 

[Pdiddy]

Our defensive line looks like they are running on oatmeal

 

[Tech Machine]

Purdue was obviously stealing our signs leading up to this game.

Both offensive and defensive signals, obviously, cheaters!

Not this year, but it’s inevitable in a year or two the way they look. No more Big Ten West to pad the record like two previous years. Couldn’t even take advantage of that this year. Also, Purdue was playing backups on the line that destroyed us.

 

[BarnBurner]

Athan throws into triple coverage a lot.

 

[Cobra]

It’s a full blown dumpster fire!

 

[USAF]

He's not getting fired, but the players on the field are entitely on him and his staff.

 

[tikited]

Unless NIL is fixed... how can the Gophers compete?

 

[scools12]

Of course it is

 

[GoForGold]

Garbage time TD. That feels good.

 

[rivergopher]

He's not getting fired, but the players on the field are entitely on him and his staff.

If this is what it is next year a change needs to happen. Hard to predict in the era of portal and NIL but 18-19 starters have elegibilty left next year.

Correct. This is not a good team. But Fleck has put a far more competent team (over his tenure) on the field than we've seen since the turn of the century. A five or six win season isn't going to get him fired. No matter how bad the goldfish want it to be.

 

[DCinOK]

You'all do know that Everybody Poops...right?

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

Do you notice the resemblance?

With a capital T and that rhymes with P and that stands for POOL!

 

[Tucker32]

Unless NIL is fixed... how can the Gophers compete?

They are not competing with teams that don’t have better NIL than them. The only program in the Big Ten West is Nebraska. NIL is not the issue.
