***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS VIRGINIA TECH DUKE'S MAYO BOWL IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[Gopherchase]

Hard to imagine Duke’s wants to highlight the announcer spitting out their product. Insult to Dove ice cream.

Well, they ought to vet the announcers ahead of time to see if they’re gonna be good sports with trying the food. The play-by-play guy is acting like a clown.

 

[Stuff]

Why did we sleep on Mangham all year?

 

[MaxyJR1]

Koi needs to get better at locating the ball, when the receiver gets past him.

Coached to play the player until they reach for the ball.

 

[fmlizard]

That play worked almost exactly like NCAA '25. Give it to Mangham on a sweep right in 3rd and long and voila, huge gain. Averaging 9 yards a carry just like his video game self.

 

[stocker08]

Yep, and when you are a freshman all American, you’re gonna get some benefit of the doubt.

lol.....you think these refs didn't call it because of Perich being a freshman all-american?

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

LOL. THAT'S your takeaway?
Maybe better off not letting the receiver get past him.

Must be lonely for you on Friday evening. Here you go

 

[Ewert86PC]

Reminds me of Hell Week

If it gets me in the door at Kappa Kappa Gamma, my future children will herald me a god.

 

[saintpauljeff]

I like Mangham

Seems like a poor man’s Josh Jacobs

Yes, I do.

Mayo is gross.....but the mascot is good. Giant eyebrows and wonky eyes....lol.

Coached to play the player until they reach for the ball.

And you know this specifically how?

I don’t think that will work at the next level FWIW.

 

[DarrenTheGreek]

End around in the RedZone? Never works

 

[DarrenTheGreek]

Spencer!!!!!

 

[USAF]

Nice play call, nice throw, TD!!

 

[btowngopher]

Nuts throw!

My kid said the same thing

 

[stocker08]

Hell yeah, Brosmer! Took a big hit too.

 

[GringaGopher]

Spencer !

 

[Gopherchase]

Spencer has played great football the last half of the year good for him. Last year was a struggle, but the kid is a player.

 

[Stuff]

Spencer knows you increase your NFL interest in a bowl game.

 

[USAF]

Yes, I do.

Are you 12?

 

[gopherdudepart2]

Hell yeah, Brosmer! Took a big hit too.

Brosmer a tough fella.

 

[46Gophers]

Spencer and Mangham looking good. Eliminate 1 bad play on defense and an average kicker and this would be a 17-0 game.

 

[howeda7]

Get a grip coach.

Most people don't know that Man Dan Campbell is his calmer level headed younger brother...

 

[beavergopher]

Where is Marcus Major?

 

[fmlizard]

Need a stop and score to end the 2nd quarter. Put the squeeze on the turkeys.

 

[Tully55]

Where is Marcus Major?

Was told he opted out

 

[MaxyJR1]

And you know this specifically how?

I don’t think that will work at the next level FWIW.

That’s why WR’s show hands at last second so DB’s don’t know when ball is arriving. He’ll be fine.

 

[GopherJack]

Where is Marcus Major?

Why did he opt out? He's not going to get drafted, is he?

With a little Mayo on it?
