***OFFICIAL RHODE ISLAND AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[fmlizard]

The Gophers are almost certainly going to win but it's always so difficult.

How do schools with less talent get receivers running wide open all the time? Brosmer threw for 430 against these guys last year with New Hampshire.

 

[MGGopher]

How many balls did the RBs catch last year…and will it be surpassed in this game?

 

[GringaGopher]

#22 tackling air as DT makes his move…

Should have hired the NH OC to come with him.

 

[Gilthorp57]

Love what the OC is doing in the 2nd Half.

Let Max cook!

Uptempo is where Max works best, play to his strengths

 

[ChromeDomeGopher]

No timeouts by PJ? New strategy?

Saving them all for a 1 minute drive after we get the ball back.

 

[Pompous Elitist]

Taylor II is special but for the run game as a whole I was expecting better than 15 carries for 47 yards.

Pj views it as illegal to adapt the offense

I'm sure that could have been arranged. The Gophers hired the sitting head coach off Maine to be a DB coach because he was making $140K being Maine's head coach.

It's like receivers get issued cement shoes with their gold helmets when they come here.

 

[Gopher Ally]

That was fun, Brosmer is getting comfortable

 

[fmlizard]

A 14 play, 8 minute drive with a 1 yard TD run at the end against a FCS team is the most Fleck/Kill era Gopher thing ever.

Pure, uncut, Gopher football.

Pj views it as illegal to adapt the offense

Yep....because we always put up numbers like 15-19 - 155 yards in the first half passing......definitely nothing different about that.

19 pass attempts, 17 rush attempts and a couple of those rushes would have been passes....yep no change in that

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

How many balls did the RBs catch last year…and will it be surpassed in this game?

Players designated as RBs caught 27 passes last season so I don't think we'll have more in this game.

5/19 with 3 drops

 

[GopherinPhilly]

Not impressed so far with our O-line

It's unbelievably cathartic seeing the offense move the ball after last week, even if it's a cupcake game

 

[MNVCGUY]

My mistake coming into a game thread.....people are really complaining about a 17-0 first half lead....wow....

 

[nitramnaed]

PJ is a genius saving those TOs

 

[howeda7]

I guess we see why RI didn't use their timeouts there.

 

[MNVCGUY]

Yep....we are doing what we are supposed to do against a team like Rhode Island.

 

[howeda7]

PJ is a genius saving those TOs

So we could run 25 seconds off and then use one?

 

[Stuff]

Catching the ball is hard

 

[Pompous Elitist]

Good grief PJ

Playing for a FG?

 

[fmlizard]

Catch the damn ball that was well thrown and timed

 

[gopherfan007]

how many balls are the WR's going to drop today, need to catch that

 

[mngg11]

We had 8 different players catch a pass last week and we have 9 already in this game.

He's a good qb. That was a beautifully placed pass to driver in the end zone too, gotta catch that

 

[LegalGopher]

Is there a reason why Tyler Williams isn't playing much?

 

[Gopher Ally]

4 drops and counting

 

[GringaGopher]

PJ is a genius saving those TOs

Then he burns more clock b4 calling the TO= classic.

 

[GopherMarroon]

78 ol Ashton Beers let sacker through
