Let's face it...this game will tell us everything we need to know about this team, Brewster & what kind of season we will have & possibly any questions regarding our team & Brewster...

Had USD not scored practically at will I would feel a lot better about our chances since USC looks *AMAZINGLY* Average this season & at least we look like we can move the ball...

I expect this game to start off slow & I also expect USC to play conservative until late in the game when they realize we're not gonna lay down & die for them...

Minnesota's problem last week was not being able to contain Warren & not being able to stop the screen...USC plays a screen heavy Offense *HOWEVER* Matt Barkley is one of the least Mobile QB's Brew has seen in his Tenure so far & the Bootleg that murdered us will not be an issue this Game...

Minnesota 34, USC 31

"In A SHOCKER!" :eek:
 

Laugh at me all you want, but welcome back Theret!
 


No Ill is giving the Illini trouble. Doesn't bode well for us next week...
 

Imagine NIU beating 2 Big Ten Teams in the same Season...
 


well this should be good...see how they respond to last week and this big stage
 

I think the announcers are live and I can still read the "MINNESOTA" writing on the seats...
Hope people flood into the stadium soon...
 





Those...are some *VERY* Ugly Uniforms...

Are we Minnesota or Texas A&M? LOL...
 

Thank God Barkley overthrew that pass because he had a few yards on his man...
 







If Eskridge had any kind of burst, he would be really good. I know. I know. If I were seven feet tall I could reach the top shelf of the cupboard without a stool.
 


Eskridge reads blocks better than Bennett, but doesn't run with as much authority. I wish Pinnix hadn't gotten hurt Brewster's first season and Eskridge could have red-shirted.
 

Boy, start the tryouts. Ellestad is playing himself out of job.
 

Is it just me or does it seem like every time we score against a good team we give back momentum by kicking it out of bounds? Is it just me?

It seems to happen quite a bit. Talk about deflating.
 

ESPN just said they are in MN territory for the first time. They must have missed their first drive, when they almost started in MN territory.
 

Defense is doing ok...they're getting killed on plays designed to the outside though...
 

it's those little breakdowns that are frustrating with Brewster. once you see USC is going for it, call the time-out instead of trying to get the different package in there.
 





Run up the middle gets nothing...can we drop this play call now?? not going to work with their D-line and our o-line.
