***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS BOWLING GREEN QUICK LANE BOWL IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[upnorthkid]

The d sure is something today thus far

 

[DarthGopher]

Our pass rush so far is dog shit and against the team like this we should be all over this quarterback.

Our pass rush has been non-existent all season.

 

[FredCoxRocks]

Defense looking confused before every play.

 

[Bob_Loblaw]

Walley gives up the long ball, but Taylor looks good, as done Kramer. 6-7.

That was on the safety. It was a cover 2.

 

[Breakin' The Plane]

Every linebacker should wear the neckroll.

 

[upnorthkid]

don’t know if we have the personnel at this point, but probably can’t play heavy linebackers on obvious passing downs. They aren’t going to run over us

 

[WayOfTheGopher]

I see it's another game with no gold. Apparently either Fleck or a majority of the players are not a fan of this color.

Just saw that '04 Bowl game against Bama, that's the color scheme we should've gone with. Maroon helmet with gold "M", maroon top and gold pants. Classic gophers.

Our pass rush has been non-existent for many, many seasons.

I miss the gold pants with the maroon jerseys.

Defense looking confused before every play.

Considering the number of LB's and DB's not playing today, it would be surprising if there wasn't some confusion. You have a RS FR and true FR at safety.

 

[DarrenTheGreek]

4th and 8. They've got us right where they want us.

 

[Igor95]

We stopped them!

 

[WAGopher]

There’s some D!

 

[DarrenTheGreek]

Alright, credit to defense there. Nice stop.

 

[Bob_Loblaw]

Joey Gerlach sighting! Nice play.

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

What the hell was that? Just take the points.

Let it all hang out
It’s Day!

 

[SHGopher]

At halftime, Spencer to the portal???

Joke

 

[upnorthkid]

5/5 for 19 yards and a TD through one for Kramer. Racking up the yards

 

[UpAndUnder43]

Walley gives up the long ball, but Taylor looks good, as done Kramer. 6-7.

The safety gave up the long ball. They were in zone. He left his zone for the man underneath.

 

[Bob_Loblaw]

I'm sure I've missed a number of guys and I know a lot of guys get offseason surgeries before the bowl game, but there are a number of guys who I expected to contribute next year that aren't playing.

 

[Gopherchase]

Some fun stuff here with Taylor back and Geers finally getting a chance to play and the young DB’s running around. It would be nice to see Lindenberg make a game changing player or two. Kramer looks rock-solid so far.

 

[Panthadad2]

As I said earlier, BG will load the box and blitz almost every play (and they are doing that). Kramer beat them once with an outlet pass to Taylor, but there should be opportunities for something longer if Kramer is able to keep calm and be accurate.

 

[Gilthorp57]

Every linebacker should wear the neckroll.

I kinda of miss those oversized shoulder pads

 

[WAGopher]

In prior bowl games, we’ve had some talented redshirts play and show us the future. Do we have anyone playing today like this we can keep an eye on?

 

[upnorthkid]

There’s the team we all know and love

 

[CurveballJesus]

If I were coaching an absolutely meaningless bowl game, I would never punt 4th and single digits

 

[upnorthkid]

4th and 1 for sure. All single digits maybe aggressive

 

[Panthadad2]

Running into a 9-man box doesn't work very often... Gophs did this repeatedly vs Bowling Green in 2021.

 

[DarrenTheGreek]

3 and out? Heck ya! Wish we got that ball though!

 

[short ornery norwegian]

Fleck had better let the QB thrown down field a few times or the O will be facing 9 in the box all day.
