***OFFICIAL wisconsin AT MINNESOTA PAUL BUNYAN AXE RIVALRY GAME LFG IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[Ewert86PC]

Overall crowd is better than I expected.

But is there enough maroon in the stands?

 

[howeda7]

Nice first drive by Athan. Balls well placed and not scorching hot.

Maybe Athan was built for cold weather?

 

[WAGopher]

Let’s go up 14-0 and do not let off the gas! Score 60 plus

+1000
Not running up the score is only for peewees.

 

[GopherBulldog]

Nice mixup in play calling. So far great execution.

 

[Gopherchase]

Don’t the badgers have like three or four linebackers from Minnesota none of them play?

 

[nitramnaed]

Nuts! For the first

 

[WAGopher]

But is there enough maroon in the stands?

That’s always a concern when playing the Reds.

 

[Stuff]

Le'Meke is playing?

 

[short ornery norwegian]

Nice first drive by Athan. Balls well placed and not scorching hot.

Scorching hot balls are never good in any context.

 

[fmlizard]

Holy wha Le'Meke is back?

 

[howeda7]

Ball has to come out faster on that.

 

[WAGopher]

Nice step up by AK, but he has to unload it sooner.

 

[CentralGopher]

How in the h*ll is Brockington out there?

 

[fmlizard]

Feels so strange seeing them in gun and using tempo.

Watch them whip the Badgers doing it and then go back to wandering up to the line and picking grass in the opener next year against UNC

 

[howeda7]

How in the h*ll is Brockington out there?

Never thought we'd see him again before Taylor.

 

[Yah-E]

3 and 17! You call a run play?!

Way too conservative

Watching Michigan game, loved how aggressive the interim head coach called their plays!

 

[GophersInIowa]

Nice step up by AK, but he has to unload it sooner.

Spencer was open across the middle. Or at a minimum was an easy way to throw it away. Just throw it into the ground 3 yds in front of him.

 

[Gopherchase]

Never thought we'd see him again before Taylor.

Nondisplaced fibula fracture easier to come back from then a high ankle sprain but yes, Darius Taylor WTF?

 

[Border Gopher]

Watch it. We are lucky they didn't have Athan just take a knee there

 

[CurveballJesus]

Just punt on third down if that is your call.

Call a Jackson sideline fly and throw it back shoulder. Pray for a flag

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

3 and 17! You call a run play?!

That's called "We'll get 'em next time." We'll see how that works out.

 

[GopherBulldog]

Scorching hot balls are never good in any context.

Agreed. Even if well placed.

 

[howeda7]

3 and 17! You call a run play?!

In general I'm with you but the odds of converting 3rd and 17 are under 10%. I can defend getting the 6 yards and punting

 

[BTChamp]

Spencer was open across the middle. Or at a minimum was an easy way to throw it away. Just throw it into the ground 3 yds in front of him.

Plenty of practice during the year

Internet coaches are the absolute worst.

 

[disco]

Very frustrating, because you knew they'd run it up the gut there.

 

[GopherBulldog]

We are returning punts and kicks? What team is this?

 

[WAGopher]

Logan, what was that! Love it!!

 

[short ornery norwegian]

A punt return! Hell has frozen over!

 

[From the Parkinglot]

First a kick off return and now a punt return. What is up with these positive special teams plays.
