***OFFICIAL NEBRASKA AT MINNESOTA, BUDDING RIVALRY, $5 BITS OF BROKEN CHAIR IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[LeftofThaDial]

What an absolutely impressive game from the Gophers so far.

 

[fmlizard]

Again, I'm getting into that "I kinda feel bad for the guy" mode.

this is going to start coming up on that time when the Gophers almost killed 5* Shane Morris of Michigan in Ann Arbor and got Brady Hoke fired

 

[mnsportsgeek]

Nobody happier tonight than the GH twitter admin who has been trolling Nebraska fans all week and won't likely have to eat crow.

 

[nitramnaed]

It always amazes me about Nebraska everyone assumes they’re always supposed to be good but they haven’t been good for years.

Oh god. That was a real one.

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

Let's get at least a field goal here to put it away.

 

[Polski]

Our defense is just playing with incredible explosiveness tonight.

Aggressive, nasty.... just dominating.

It just feels different. They're playing with an edge. Keep the foot on the gas pedal till the final buzzer.

I'm not. The pain of 1983 is etched deep into my memory. Cornhuskers

 

[nitramnaed]

Please score please score. Please score.
One more time!

They've had a good start but they haven't played the greatest schedule.

Last time MN got 8 sacks...2000 vs Iowa

My birth was still a year away, but I appreciate your pain.

They turned the corner 4 times. Moving them right back where they started.

 

[JZABR]

I don't think a team that has scored 6 points by the 4th quarter can say they lost because of a blown call. You're gonna get some blown calls.

We're definitely used to it

 

[Ewert86PC]

What about 9 sacks?

 

[WindyCityGopher]

Not to distract from this great effort from our boys, but Shohei just hit his 3rd HR of the night. He also pitched 6 innings with 2 hits and 10 strikeouts. The man is superhuman.

 

[fmlizard]

"Minnesota's not the kind of team that's going to beat itself" now we know who didn't watch the Cal film

 

[btowngopher]

Are we playing to win?

 

[Polski]

Great play by Taylor to stay in bounds. Smart football.

 

[theTurning]

I’m really not used to getting the calls.

 

[mngg11]

Nebraska has officially quit.

 

[Tully55]

What about 9 sacks?

Never

 

[mnsportsgeek]

Idk if we made huge improvements in so many areas tonight or if Nebraska just didn't show up but regardless it is fun to watch and I hope it continues.

 

[nitramnaed]

And this guy’s gonna coach Penn State.

 

[Ewert86PC]

My birth was still a year away, but I appreciate your pain.

As I implied in another thread, Matt Ruhle going to Penn State and Nebraska bringing in another "Joe Jabroni" is a double win for us. This game brings us closer to that scenario.

 

[Ewert86PC]

And this guy’s gonna coach Penn State.

Yes, please!

 

[fmlizard]

As soon as they start glazing our guys for the first time tonight a guy runs untouched into the backfield for a 5 yard loss

 

[Xerxes_]

It would be interesting to watch Nebraska's OL battle their own DL. The resistible force vs the movable object.

 

[#2Gopher]

Well we went from an off topic board to a true Gopher board!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
