***OFFICIAL PURDUE AT MINNESOTA HOMECOMING IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[scools12]

That probably does it. D has done all they could. No help from the offense today.

 

[RolGnav]

I think it’s more on execution but that’s just me

Well, there's not much you can do if you run 1st, and 2nd down almost every possession. I get it if we actually had the lead.

 

[rivergopher]

Yeah we just cannot lose our top rb/wr in back to back weeks and win its to bad we are probably headed to the Guarnteed rate bowl.

 

[GopherFanatic19]

Like I said, I am 100% open to PJ shutting me up.

How many times you gonna say this!

 

[mnsportsgeek]

Hey look they can make a field goal under 30 yards.

 

[scools12]

Your 6th year QB with the most wins in school history needs to pull this out.

 

[matt]

Like I said, I am 100% open to PJ shutting me up.

You are a joke. I remain 100% open to you shutting me up.

 

[laazrakit]

Well, it's Tanner time... We'll see if he's up for the task, I guess.

 

[Replacement Gopher]

they have been playing this game not to lose since the opening play. Sad to see. This is reminiscent of the Sanford years, when the offense was poor. back at it.

This has been consistent with PJ

 

[gopherbadgerman]

If we end up losing this game, you'll know the reason. The Coaches and their chicken conservative play

Well, there's not much you can do if you run 1st, and 2nd down almost every possession. I get it if we actually had the lead.

Don’t throw picks and drop passes? Tackle better? Block better? Not ripping the players but I think it’s more than that

 

[PhiloVance]

Well at least Iowa and Wisconsin are losing.

 

[dlhedlem]

True...but MO shouldn't have been in the game as long as he was last week. We still have good backs though...hopefully they can pull this one out!

 

[cncmin]

the game was lost on the last two blown offensive opportunities, where we went full conservative except for two plays, which both worked.

 

[bleedsmaroonandgold]

How many times you gonna say this!

As many times as I need to. I am willing it into being. I want so bad to eat some row tonight

 

[Grant]

Defense played great. Offense and special teams were garbage.

 

[gopherbadgerman]

I’d agree that if we lose it’s certainly not on the D. They played plenty well enough to win

 

[cncmin]

Well at least Iowa and Wisconsin are losing.

the good part of losing this game is they will be back to a more comfortable position the rest of the season - not expected to dominate.

 

[RogueGopher]

Opportunity for Tanner's Heisman moment.

 

[scools12]

Illinois the new B1G West favorite.

 

[Igor95]

Here we go!

 

[howeda7]

Well at least Iowa and Wisconsin are losing.

We can still win the West, but going to the Rose Bowl dies today. Again.

 

[Ewert86PC]

Champions are made in times like this.

 

[cncmin]

move move move time is running.

 

[RolGnav]

So now that we are behind with time running out, we're gonna have to resort to passing right? Seriously this is our weakness, chicken conservative coaches. 4th and 1 at our 30? Let's trick them by putting in our wildcat QB and run him up the middle. 2nd and 1, let's just run up the middle to get a first down and not try anything. Oh, it's a tied game? Let's go into conservative mode cause you know, we're averaging -1 yard per rush.

 

[Rickman55]

I know it’s not “all” Morgan’s fault. O line sucked and play calling awful. But I have been saying before the season started I wished he hadn’t come back. I hope we still pull it out, but very disappointing.

 

[PhiloVance]

the game was lost on the last two blown offensive opportunities, where we went full conservative except for two plays, which both worked.

Except for Legends nephews no catch in the end zone.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

who tf are you throwing to Tanner?

 

[scools12]

Would anyone be surprised if PJ plays for a FG?

 

[Igor95]

Nuts

 

[howeda7]

Just a pathetic series. This was never a top 20 team.
