***OFFICIAL NORTHWESTERN AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[fmlizard]

White helmets are BRUTAL.

they are fine, just look awful with maroon shirts and gold pants.

when the helmet is white, white stops being a neutral accent and becomes a third primary color, making everything look busy. two's company, three's a crowd.

 

[Tully55]

Last year Hull rushes 15 times for 105 yards.
So far today...6 carried for 4 yards.

 

[Drake University Gopher]

Repeat what are the odds on Kramer playing by the 3rd quarter?

Probably not high (would probably mean an injury). Surely less than the odds you’re a douche!

 

[fmlizard]

Athan...yikes.

 

[GophersInIowa]

I’m not sure where the PI was there but it certainly wasn’t uncatchable.

 

[HitMeAgainIAmStillMoving]

phaeton PI

 

[gopherguy06]

Athan needs to calm a bit and get into a groove.

 

[PhiloVance]

Only if there is an injury to AK.

Would be nice to see him more consistent in passing.

 

[BleedGopher]

This.

Go Gophers!!

I have no idea what you are talking about.

 

[salzie]

Weak call I'll take it.

 

[WayOfTheGopher]

Wouldn't be surprised if we rushed it like 60 times, AK needs the hot tub at halftime to loosen up.

 

[Tully55]

Fitz doing his best Fran McCaffery impersonation

 

[salzie]

Athan...yikes.

First home start. Not great weather.


Hopefully settles in

If passing games keeps looking off PJ will take air out

 

[fmlizard]

Athan needs to calm a bit and get into a groove.

Maybe he needs 85K hostile fans on the road? He's never had meaningful reps without them. Perhaps the calm is the problem?

 

[Breakin' The Plane]

Not sure why Fitz is shaking his head on that one.

 

[Tully55]

50 career rushing TDs for Mo...tied for 5th all time in the BIG 10.
Montee Ball (WI) 77
Ron Dayne (WI) 71
Anthony Thompson (Ind) 67
Pete Johnson (tOSU) 56
Jonathan Taylor (WI) 50
Mo Ibrahim (MN) 50

 

[Taji34]

Mo is the 7th player ever in 127 years of the B1G conference to get 50 career TDs.

 

[SPEGOPHER]

I know it’s supposed to be the RPO, but I’m shocked that we don’t have better play action considering how good our run game is.

 

[HitMeAgainIAmStillMoving]

Could this be the day Mo gets 5?

 

[short ornery norwegian]

The way the D is playing, with a 14-pt lead, Gophers may not attempt another pass today.

I was thinking the same thing. We are going to make Dean Smith's four corner look like run and gun.

 

[hungan1]

AK has jitters playing his first start in rough weather. I hope he calms down and plays better in the Second Half.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

Thank goodness Purdue won today. Northwestern couldn’t beat a freshmen team.

 

[GophersInIowa]

Can this officiating crew work the next game too? Because Iowa is notorious for their D-lineman holding.

 

[salzie]

That's targeting

 

[GophersInIowa]

Yeah that’s targeting. And should have been a late hit.

 

[Unregistered User]

Jesus, how was that buzzed down and not called on the field?

 

[BTChamp]

Why wasn't there at least a roughing call in real time?
