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

[ruppertflywheel]

Myrick.....unreal

 

[Breakin' The Plane]

I don't think the corners are good enough to have 0 safety help.

 

[GO4INLALALAND]

Please stop blitzing and going cover 0, please. It's so unnecessary.

You said it. How many freaking times do we have to get burned before they stop?

where is the safety help on any of these big plays

 

[GopherinPhilly]

If we are going to blitz and play man to man, have to either play off or bump and run...otherwise we are back in no mans land with huge pass plays against a competent QB

 

[Tully55]

well the lead is nice...

Unfortunately, it was very short lived.

 

[GO4INLALALAND]

Purdue is just licking their chops when they see us in cover zero.

Yikes!!

We're playing Cover 0. At the very least should be Cover 1 so you have the safety help.

 

[Pompous Elitist]

Yeah we're not playing the backup QB today.

I know, right? ! Jeezus. It's not just today (TWICE!!!), it's a consistent theme with Sawvel. He's been very good for the most part, but these 3rd down, Cover 0 blitzes are maddening. Purdue is inconsistent. They can't march it down on you. WTF would you keep going cover 0 and giving them the change to break one with their explosive athletes? It makes no freaking sense

 

[GophersInIowa]

Well that was nice.

 

[MGGopher]

Every run play needs to be zone read right now. Purdue is blowing away our OL

Plus, the blitz has been ineffective, so don't bother. Way more risk than reward.

Well how about that!

 

[MNVCGUY]

Not much defense getting played in this game on either side.

 

[ruppertflywheel]

Dive for the ball 88....

 

[Pompous Elitist]

Take the points

 

[GopherinPhilly]

Don't jump and dive Carter...run through the damn ball and score a touchdown!

 

[MGGopher]

Take the points

Agreed. You really want the lead at half against a team like Purdue. Although with 1:30 left for their O, a lead isn't guaranteed lol...

 

[GO4INLALALAND]

That is clearly a catch.

Go for it. This is a shootout.

 

[DoubleAlum]

I wonder if our coaches ever ask themselves why can other teams throw slants against us and catch us without proper back up coverage, but when we throw a slant it rarely goes for more than 5 yards.

 

[Sparlimb]

Let the clock run down. No matter what, I'd call a timeout with the play clock at 1.

 

[GO4INLALALAND]

QB sneak.

Pooch punt.

 

[GophersInIowa]

Try to draw them offsides, then call a TO.

 

[Igor95]

I'd kick.
