Q3: Minnesota 17, Ohio State 10
FINAL: Minnesota 17, Ohio State 16

Gopher defense will need to play its best game of the season if we want to win. We're definitely capable of having our number be bigger than theirs after 60 minutes, but we'll need a lot to go our way. Realistically, a second-half defensive or special teams score will likely be necessary.

Out of curiosity do you see OSU making 2 4th quarter field goals or missing an extra point?

Also waiting for a wise guy to respond by saying 3 safeties.

Two field goals. I think out only scenario of winning involves making multiple late redzone stops as OSU has been much more proficient on offense in the second half. We WILL bend no matter what, but if we don’t break we can still win.

What is a Dink?

As was noted in another response, a "dink" is typically an online or traditional sports media personna offering some kind of "critique" of Minnesota's general program, where things stand after Spring and Summer Camps, or even for individual games. Those earning the "dink" label are typically just this side of Open AI writing their piece, often missing players that have graduated, injuries, or yaddi yaddi yah just not doing their homework. Usually a simple statement...dink...or... not-a-dink...communicates to all whether the author really should be taken seriously. It is a form of GH shorthand.

I break out the Dink-O-Meter occassionally to add a more scientific read of the situation. The Dink-O-Meter does have a "favorable to Gophers" bias that is just hard to take out of its readings.

This year I've spent my Bitcoin to upgrade to the Dink-O-Meter 3000 model. Still learning how to use it but broke it out for you. There have been occassions where the sheer magnitude of dinkiness broke the Dink-O-Meter. Had no concern starting out with your posts.

"Not a Dink" is therefore a compliment. Science does not lie (usually). In an earlier time your posts might have been labeled "classy" but I don't think that's used any more.

Glad you've been visiting. Can't be The Best without beating The Best. I believe in miracles but keep the faith when they don't materialize.

We say "Ski U Mah!" Go Gophers.
