Got that right.

 

[MrC]

I fear we are overmatched again. I hope I am wrong.

 

[thailleagle]

Yeah, you can tell it's just gonna be one of those games...

 

[TLHGO4]

Didn't the defense learn anything from the Iowa Game? Good Lord!

 

[Norseland Store]

Get Aaron Hill off the field

Rush Defense has been a joke last few weeks...

Run defense was a joke all year, it was just masked by the fact that teams didn't run much.

 

[mkAz]

I have a feeling Northwestern is going to be running to the left all day today. Just saying.

 

[Bayfieldgopher]

HILL. The TD run he couldnt seperate. The long run it looked like he filled an inside gap. Claeyas has to adjust now versus at halftime.

 

[CurveballJesus]

can't we slide Rallis back outside and have Beal in the middle to help the run defense?

 

[MrC]

Life is meaningless. Just saying.

On both the touchdown and the long run it was Aaron Hill (#57) that was tenative to fill the hole and it allowed the running back all the outside room he needed.

 

[Gopherprof]

People keep talking about Beal like he's actually done something this year.

 

[theTurning]

I look forward to the day we aren't automatically assigned a female announcer.

He's looked better than Hill

I look forward to not sucking!

All our other opponents have, so why not? There doesn't seem to be anyone to clean up to the left of the consistent double team on Hageman. It's been killing us all year.

I hope this isn't the start of an exposal...

 

[theTurning]

Exactly.

 

[50PoundHead]

People keep talking about Beal like he's actually done something this year.

Our LB play just isn't getting it done.

 

[CurveballJesus]

god I hate these announcers. anyone else catch Galloway saying that our coach was Mason?

 

[Gopherprof]

He's looked better than Hill

You have no earthly idea if that's true.

Our linebackers are terrible. If Beal was ready, he'd be playing a lot more already.

 

[thailleagle]

I think if we can keep it close into halftime we'll slow NW down a lot like Penn State did in the 2nd Half...

 

[MrC]

god I hate these announcers. anyone else catch Galloway saying that our coach was Mason?

God, I hate being a Gophers fan.

 

[station19]

Big if at this point

 

[westcoastgopher11]

At least the unicycle club looked good.

 

[CurveballJesus]

You have no earthly idea if that's true.

Actually I do. I've watched every game this year either on TV or in person. Beal has flashed more times than Hill has in my opinion. Therefore, to me, he LOOKS better than Hill

 

[MrGopher]

I'm thoroughly sick of being in the 11am slot on ESPN2. These announcers are seriously making me consider muting the game.

 

[MrGopher]

Q at WR again.
