Love this defense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Stanger86]

Big play!

 

[t-docious]

damn if only james manuel was TC 22

 

[Monty519]

We're getting turnovers AND solid play defensively. We're not even selling out to make these plays like we've had to before, just awesome.

 

[zambam]

Kirkwood is just missing breakaway speed.

 

[eker0016]

Nice running by Kirkwood! If he had that extra gear of Maye he could have housed that one!

 

[Stanger86]

I'll ask again, 2012 is best Gopher defense since...?

 

[eker0016]

Kirkwood is just missing breakaway speed.

Ditto!

 

[Stanger86]

I like the MJD comparison

 

[zambam]

Fruechte seems to be used a lot for blocking.

 

[Stanger86]

Great accuracy!

 

[Former Goofer]

TOUCHDOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHORTELL IS GOD!! BUILD A STATUE NOW!

 

[Dr.Don]

TOUCHDOWN!!!!!

 

[Former Goofer]

Who committed that penalty?

 

[gopherbadgerman]

legit holding call

 

[Monty519]

Man, that's a killer

 

[zambam]

Who committed that penalty?

63 or 65 I think.

 

[Former Goofer]

63 or 65 I think.

Totally killed the momentum.

 

[gopherbadgerman]

Poor end to that drive

 

[Stanger86]

Syracuse no use no timeouts?!

 

[gopherbadgerman]

Good thing I didnt take the over...

 

[SickAndTiredOfLosingToWI]

Should be 17-3 right now. Syracuse sucks almost as much as our kicker.

 

[gopherinpain]

Dominated the half and with one play we can be trailing. Incredible!

 

[popeyoung5]

This feels like the reverse of Iowa last year.

 

[Monty519]

Dominated the half and with one play we can be trailing. Incredible!

Better than playing our best and still trailing like we used to lol

 

[MrC]

Held Syracuse to 151 yards, 82 passing. It starts with defense.

 

[TLHGO4]

They left 13 points on the field the first half. You can't do that and expect to win. These penalties have got to stop. The "D " played great.

 

[Blackhammer]

Terrible end to the half. Almost gives everyone the feeling we are behind. Offensive line just collapsed. Mistakes after mistakes. You don't do that and not lose the game. This will haunt us and we will lose.

 

[zambam]

Claeys is probably the best coach on this staff.

 

[ruppertflywheel]

Who is #63? Bak?? Kill should make him duck walk to the llockervroom
