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

[GringaGopher]

Wish I didn’t feel like I have to hold my breathe every time Redding catches the ball. I was hoping to see a new return option for the bowl game.

Our defense is making BGSU’s offense look bad.

The play calling is maddening. The sum bitch just is never gonna change his best.

 

[Bob_Loblaw]

The worst thing that ever happened to PJ as a coach was that he coached Mo.

Mo, for some reason that defies logic, seemed to run just as hard on carry 33 as he did on carry 1. Granted, his body and NFL career took a hit from it, but it was an almost super human thing Mo could do at his size.

Lets assume no one else can do that. Mix in your other backs.

 

[WayOfTheGopher]

Why is everyone acting so surprised? We've seen them do this all year long.

 

[WAGopher]

So far this game has bad vibes and has me a bit worried about next year. I know we have some good players coming in. I hope we can take control of this game.

 

[Gopher Ally]

There is a reason Kramer never started. Going to have to live with running, wildcat, and swing passes, nothing vertical

 

[FanSinceTheFifties]

Possession of the ball is the most important asset. I hate punting.

 

[Bob_Loblaw]

Other than our best corner getting torched

My god your full of terrible takes.

The TD was not on him. It was clearly on the safety. Then Hilaire caught a jump ball where Walley had great coverage. Then he gave up a 10 yard slant.

 

[Word]

How did the ref miss that???

 

[Great Plains Gopher]

RUTM vs the loaded box. Gawdamn this gets old.

PJ reverting to his over-cautious mode. Won't win with that. he really needs an independent-minded OC.

It looked like PJ was swearing on the sideline after the play, so not sure if he was pissed at himself, the execution or the play call.

 

[Border Gopher]

Holy hell, got a snickers?

 

[Word]

How can it take 5 minutes to review a clear stepping out of bounds call?

 

[stocker08]

What's taking so long with this review? Pretty open and closed.

 

[DarthGopher]

This review should not be taking this long. Dude stepped out. End of story.

 

[FredCoxRocks]

And people say baseball games move slow.

 

[Panthadad2]

The penalty on the illegal touching wasn't assessed in the Vikings game yesterday. I thought the rules are the same.

 

[Taji34]

#4 made a good play, knocked the ball out before the receiver hit the ground

Football has waaaaay too many stoppages. Why hockey is the best spectator sport.

 

[DarthGopher]

Nut crunch....

 

[Word]

It didn't seem like a penalty here. Just like an incomplete pass.

 

[stocker08]

Three minutes to get a field goal!

 

[DarrenTheGreek]

The one time we call a developing pass play and we can't block the blind side? Come on....horrible.

 

[Igor95]

Ugh!

 

[nitramnaed]

Oy!

 

[WAGopher]

Quinton Redding certainly has improved his punt catching. Early in his career, it looked like he’d drop ever other catch.

 

[DarthGopher]

Ersery got smoked.

 

[short ornery norwegian]

And that will be the last pass attempt of the game for MN.

 

[skyman31]

Nubin has ZERO carries. Why?

This is my biggest gripe with PJ. You’re on a season where you’ve had to play your 5th string running back, you’re in a meaningless game and Taylor is the future of the program. Along with that, Nubin stepped up when he was needed and he deserves carries here too. Just insane that he refuses to change this after we burn through running backs every single year.
