[CurveballJesus]

go for the block or the return?

 

[csom_1991]

To be honest, the D played lights out. They gave up 21 - but the first TD was in FG range when they took possession. 17 points to NW - that is one heck of an effort.

What happened to the 2-minute warning

 

[csom_1991]

'no way to stop the clock Mullet Lesbian'? wow...

What happened to the 2-minute warning

i will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that was sarcasm

 

[csom_1991]

"What happened to the 2-minute warning' - in college?

 

[thailleagle]

Play-Action?

 

[popeyoung5]

He cannot throw wide

I don't pay much attention to college football rules. Why would they get rid of it?

 

[popeyoung5]

Shortell is a dumpster fire.

don't remember them ever having it

When did they have it?

 

[BBQ Platypus]

Well, I think we can all agree that "Shortell as a viable Big Ten quarterback" is no longer a thing. If it ever was one.

 

[Great Plains Gopher]

We'd better find a QB for next year. This was pathetic.

 

[Stan The Caddy]

Please, no....

 

[GopherFanatic19]

Shortell is F-ING GARBAGE!!!!

 

[FireCosgroveGuy]

Shortell doesn't even look like a walk-on at this point.

Can we trade him to Michigan?

 

[gophertime]

We can change coaches, we can change players, we can change stadiums, but it's still gopher football.

 

[csom_1991]

We can change coaches, we can change players, we can change stadiums, but it's still gopher football.

Amen to that! It ensures I can get drunk on New Years Day and not worry about missing the big game. Besides, being a Gopher fan builds character.

 

[Blackhammer]

Year two for Kill so a little slack for him. Shortell has played enough to not look that bad. Missed a sure TD as Gray did earlier. You just can't keep doing that. We need a QB, I sure hope Nelson is that guy.

 

[Replacement Gopher]

I don't want anymore character. I just want the ball thrown near wide open players when they in the end zone.

 

[Great Plains Gopher]

In fairness, the defense did come back impressively in the second half - but what a slew of fumbles, injuries, penalties. A real mess of a game. But, as registered earlier, I didn't expect a Gopher victory. In fact, it was closer than I expected - so that is good.

 

[GophersInIowa]

Too many unforced mistakes on offense. Plain and simple. Missed receivers, fumbles, and drops.

 

[MrC]

Game of lost chances

In spite of what complete idiots think (FCG accusing coach of betting on opposition), this was a game of lost opportunity.

It will get better.

Our O line is young and injured, every other position of offense is 'okay' at best.

After a shaky start the D played very well.

I sure hope Nelson starts next year.

Haha. You've been trumpeting for Shortell all year!

 

[station19]

Haha. You've been trumpeting for Shortell all year!

That would be true.

Max seems to have regressed.

I hope Nelson starts because that would mean he is better than Max.
