[POST GAME THREAD] - Maryland defeats Minnesota 42 - 13

Don't have sound right now, but for Gophers offense: no matter how good your OL is, if the DL is comparably talented, they WILL go open after a few seconds ... got throw it away or run (if you can).

For Gophers defense ... there were three 1-on-1 isolation blocks on the left side, none of the Gophers shed/beat those blocks, and then a 1-on-1 Gopher defender versus the ballcarrier ... if he makes the tackle, at least it's only a 4-5 yard gain. He missed the tackle = TD.

There was also a poor read by Cashman as the QB turned to the hole and the RB stepped directly towards the hole as well. Now, there was the motion man that the QB faked to and if Cashman bit on that, then he didn't trust his teammates who have the jet sweep action covered. In his alignment at the start of the play I would venture a strong guess that his responsibility was the RB, unless he was on some blitz call, and he did not take care of his responsibility first. He should have been standing in the hole for a no gain or TFL
