***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT UCLA AT ROSE BOWL STADIUM IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[RogueGopher]

I don't see us losing the rest of the season

 

[Mr. 131]

Forced myself to stay far from this thread all game.....assume the first half meltdowns were epic.

There were a few. I tried to hold the line on hope.

 

[gopherbadgerman]

No, you didn’t. But he did. He also threw short of the end zone on 3rd down. How dumb.

I didn’t what? He made a good read there he gets credit for that.

 

[Mr. 131]

So where do I get Perich jersey?

 

[stocker08]

Amazing. I love everyone!

You don't know what Bleed has. He's been around.

 

[oldman]

Good adjustments 2nd half. Just looked up who UCLA played so far and they played a tough schedule with Hawaii the only Win. Penn st, lsu Oregon Illinois. We beat 2 good teams in a row.
Eric Bienimy the OC.

 

[Vandy]

How tight will PJ Fleck's pants be in the next game after this?

Yeah, the backside did appear a little "snug"....

 

[Spaulding!No!]

PJ just moved up to ‘at risk’.

 

[Word]

After the first half, this felt like the annual stinker game that we’ve had each of the past few years. The fact that the team woke up and figured it out shows some really nice growth.

We already had 2 of those

 

[Vandy]

Yeah those complainers about the punt do have to eat the shark sandwich

Please pas the catsup.....

 

[Gopherchase]

So where do I get Perich jersey

Buy a jersey and send him NIL.

 

[gopherbadgerman]

Boy Brosmer caught a lot of hell in the first half. I didn’t think he had anything to do with the issues. This is now the third week in a row that the kid has showed huge balls on a big stage in the second half when we play with a bit more tempo.

It’s possible to be crappy and then make a good read at the end of the game. He did that

 

[cheeseheadgophfan]

Ugh 16 almost rolled himself into the end zone trying to down the punt. In what universe would you down a punt like that so close to the end zone?

That doesn't matter in college football......once you have possession, play is dead.

 

[Word]

Brosmer at 70% even when he seems to be having a bad game.

 

[Hotrod56425]

Perich INT again????

Perich is quickly moving up to Legendary status.

 

[Gopherchase]

It’s possible to be crappy and then make a good read at the end of the game. He did that

He was dishing dimes all over the place in the second half and really didn’t have much chance it started in the first.

Is 70 percent, 2 TDS, 0 int crappy in your opinion?

 

[Panthadad2]

Another efficient clutch game by Brosmer. 2 TDs and 26 for 37 (70%) including several throw aways from heavy pressure. Jackson, Spencer and Taylor had quietly good second halves.

Defense pulled it together after giving up yards early.

A win is a win.

 

[gopherbadgerman]

Agree much better second half. He didn’t have a 15 yard completion until the 4th quarter

 

[Ski-U-Ham]

DeShaun sounds very defeated in his press conference, like this really was a big game for them

 

[MNVCGUY]

It’s possible to be crappy and then make a good read at the end of the game. He did that

Hold up....you think Brosmer played crappy?

He completed 70% of his passes for nearly 200 yards and 2TD. His first pass of the game was a beautiful throw that Geers just flat out dropped. Brosmer wasn't perfect but he played really well.

 

[MNVCGUY]

Agree much better second half. He didn’t have a 15 yard completion until the 4th quarter

He would have had a 30 yard completion if Geers catches the perfectly thrown ball on the opening drive that hit him squarely in the hands in stride.

 

[bleedsmaroonandgold]

Ran out, but found a case of New Coke Lou Holtz had hidden instead...

Whatever it was, it worked!

Yeah, gopherbadgerman will continue to stand in that ship even if it sinks.

 

[Ski-U-Ham]

He would have had a 30 yard completion if Geers catches the perfectly thrown ball on the opening drive that hit him squarely in the hands in stride.

And that might have changed the complexion of the entire game

Yep.

You really want to die on this hill, dog?

 

[gopherbadgerman]

You really want to die on this hill, dog?

What hill? He averaged 5.2 per pass.

He made a good read to hit Taylor to win the game. He gets credit for that.

He was not good in the first half.

 

[MNVCGUY]

And that might have changed the complexion of the entire game

You never know but it certainly would have increased the likelihood of getting points on the opening drive which can be huge.

Not at all. Was making a observation that you can play poorly and then play well later in the game.
