*** OFFICIAL MINNESOTA-SYRACUSE IN-GAME THREAD ***

[Former Goofer]

I'm speechless right now.

 

[thailleagle]

The Defense should get into the Offense's ass because they are really baling them out...

 

[zambam]

Didn't Ekpe like just turn 18?

 

[Monty519]

The turnovers, the stoutness, the solid tackling....unbelievable. Helping out the kinda dry offense...

 

[Blackhammer]

Run the ball.

 

[popeyoung5]

The d will carry this team a loooooooooooooooooong way!

 

[Former Goofer]

Shortell coming back down to earth. Seems like he, comparatively, struggles on short throws compared to long throws.

 

[Stanger86]

Best defense in B1G?

 

[Stanger86]

I like that there's been no RB committee!

 

[Dr.Don]

Best defense in B1G?

Too early to tell, let's answer that when we are well into the B1G schedule.

 

[popeyoung5]

Holding Q to 3 points? When do I wake up from this dream!

 

[Stanger86]

Too early to tell, let's answer that when we are well into the B1G schedule.

Well, we're better than Northwestern!

 

[Dr.Don]

Looks that way right now, Stanger.

 

[gopherinpain]

Love the heart of the D, creating TOs. Hate our kicking game (place-kicking and punting). Offense has issues at times, but Kirkwood is a baller and Max will only get better.

 

[GopherFanatic19]

Lets Finish CLOSE out GOPHERS!!!

 

[zambam]

Well, we're better than Northwestern!

But then Northwestern has a better offense.

 

[popeyoung5]

pound the rock

 

[Stanger86]

Haven't allowed 3 or fewer points in a game since 9/20/08 vs Florida Atlantic

 

[popeyoung5]

The Q dline is gassed

 

[Stanger86]

BTW

“@GopherFootball: Minnesota at Iowa will be on ESPN2 next week at 11 am. Just got confirmation.”

 

[thailleagle]

I hope we don't get too conservative... I'd definitely feel better with a pass play here & there...

 

[Dr.Don]

Finally I'll get to watch one.

 

[DTOWNGOPHER]

Wells is a STUD, we have a fast defense, solid tacklers, and making big plays. I couldn't even do that in NCAA12 on varsity level. Like everyone else I'm becoming a huge Claeys fan!

 

[Stanger86]

OK this is getting ridiculous!

Really? I dominate that game.

 

[Monty519]

Syracuse is antsy...the crowd, the pass rush, they can't handle it right now

 

[popeyoung5]

Claeys and this staff has done a great job. The d line is awesome

 

[zambam]

Hopefully don't get *&^!#*&^!#*&^!#*&^!# announcers

 

[Stanger86]

I'm so glad we're playing this well after watching my Mustangs lose to UMC today.

 

[popeyoung5]

chew the clock, run the rock! Bring on the Hogeyes!
