Post Game Thread: GOPHERS CRUSH MSU! SOUND OFF!

[GopherHole Staff]

What say you GopherHolers?!?

 

[Ewert86PC]

It's not perfect. No shut out.

 

[GringaGopher]

Dominating performance ! Excited to go to next weeks home game. Go Gophers !!

 

[Nax5]

What can I complain about? Our backup defense keeps letting up scores!

But I really didn't expect this domination. Damn is it fun.

 

[McGopherFan]

Should I feel like after the Nystrom kick at PSU? Cause I kind of do.

I like that our back up's are playing in games. This bodes well for the future. As the head coach said, when the older players start to lead the younger guys, elite happens, when elite players lead. This is a great standard being set. Culture and program will keep rowing to greatness. Fun to see Gophers dominate line of scrimmage. MSU had only 45 offensive plays, that's winning football.

Great win. Great play calling, execution, and players making plays. Jackson stepped up and Morgan played really well. Looks like Mo will be ok. Very impressed.

 

[GopherVotary]

We appear to be much better than Sparty.

Postgame show gushing about the Gophers. Well deserved. This is a complete team in every way.

 

[MGGopher]

No punts
No sacks allowed
Starting D no points allowed
Win the yardage battle by about 300
Forced 3 turnovers
Have more explosive plays than they have first downs
All this on the road against a team that finished in the top 10 last year

Dominant from top to bottom. This is a REALLY good football team. Buckle up.

This game made the chili I made tonight HOT

WR played great.

 

[fan of Ray Williams]

Has to be Gopher record on Morgan completing passes to 10 different receivers.

 

[TruthSeeker]

MSU is very bad. Great win, but it doesn't tell us how good we really are.

 

[Breakin' The Plane]

Why is Mark Crawford still on this team? He's not pulling his weight.

I will disagree with this post

 

[GophersInIowa]

How many of the 24 pts the defense has given up this year been with reserves in? 21?

Remember you have to the next day.

Gophers look really good. They have been handling there business all year and they don’t always do that. I think they are a really solid club.

 

[RememberMurray]

Well, we're Minnesotans, so we'll say the same things we always say after a huge win:

"Ya. Not too bad. Could be worse".

"Why didn't they throw to the tight ends more?"

"Remember that one play that didn't work? Well... they shoulda called a different play."

"We're not that good; the other team is bad."

"Those uniforms aren't even our team colors!"

Good lord go away. We are very good......4 games....4 blowouts. Blowing out bad teams at home is one thing, going on the road and blowing out ANY Big Ten team is another. We might still be a little behind the elite teams in the Big Ten but we are easily the top team in the West right now.

 

[BTChamp]

They started the big push...........

 

[NorthernLakesGopher]

Close to perfect game by Gophers, played and coached. Sparty fans calling for Tucker's head. A shutout would've been awesome, but....this is still awesome!

 

[50PoundHead]

They really punched them in the mouth. MSU is probably a middling team in the B1G this year, but they've got some talented guys. We just neutralized them and dominated them.

Yes

 

[fmlizard]

For the 2nd straight game the Gophers allowed their defensive PPG to rise, this time from 5.6 to 6.0.

I once again demand to see the manager.

 

[Ski U Mah Gopher]

Why is Mark Crawford still on this team? He's not pulling his weight.

He had 6 perfect holds today

 

[Spoofin]

Lucky to escape with a win.

If your default position is that the Gophers aren't very good, you'll never be impressed with one of their wins.

MSU smashed a couple of bad times and then lost by 11 on the road in a game across the country to a top 15-20 team in the country.

Are they great? Nope. Are they "very bad"? I mean, we made them look really bad for the first time all season.

We know this much about the Gophers. They are good enough to absolutely smash an OK Big 10 team on the road.
