Unlike Iowa, where we knew we'd be chasing the entire 2nd half. It's a completely different game if we come out and score to open up the half here.
They're selling out against the run with a safety in the box almost every snap. They decided there's no way they're losing on the ground like last year. Minnesota needs to adjust, simple as that. Sucks, but they had a good gameplan with the wind and everything.We won last year primarily because we ran it down their throat. Very different outcome today. Doesn’t even seem to be a commitment to the run at all, which is really puzzling in these conditions.
If you have witnessed an ability to run the ball today,, then you are one of few. Wisconsin loading up the box every play.We won last year primarily because we ran it down their throat. Very different outcome today. Doesn’t even seem to be a commitment to the run at all, which is really puzzling in these conditions.
We don't use TE's.Get the TEs involved with some quicker passes
No word. He was carted off. Next man up.At the game. Is Faalele coming back?
Correct.I don’t know how to improve our oline at halftime but they better get better or we r screwed! Can someone tell me???
No update but he was carted to the locker room. Seems unlikely but it would be nice!At the game. Is Faalele coming back?
The mindset matters to your team. Wisconsin had the opposite approach. Players are not dumb.I wasn't a fan of punting on 4th and 2, but I don't think it mattered too much.
We will need a big play or two to win this.
It appears we aren't winning the trenches today on either side.
The roster continues to have depth issues, which are being helped as each year under PJ goes on; but this year it remains thin in certain areas, two of which (OL and LB) just so happened today early.Martin is clearly injured, which is why Carter was in man coverage.
This can't go on.
Yep. Can't figure out why those quick over the middle passes aren't there. Can't see it on TV either.We need faster quicker slants behind the blitzing linebackers. Shorter routes should work.
Going into the wind.3rd and 10 and we have the wind at our back and they run it
