Press Conference Video: Can the Gophers shock Oregon Friday night?

Not likely. We’re too slow and can’t play keep away with the ground and pound run game like we could in the past. FTD!
 


Fleck seemed pretty subdued and matter of fact. Obviously, he knows what they are getting into with a night game in Eugene. Hopefully, this will allow the team to play loose and play their best. That'll be the only chance at not getting blown out. I think the absolute best we can hope for is a two touchdown loss.
 

There is almost nothing in PJ’s history here that would suggest that he’ll even really try that hard to win this game. We will probably watch another effort where he just tries to run the clock quickly then get on the plane and come home as quickly as possible.

I heard they were just playing card games and rock, paper, scissors.

After the Ohio State & Iowa games this year, it's hard to argue with this.

They were home games. When he plays these types of teams on the road, that has been my issue with their play in these games, he doesn't open things up to try and win.... so it seems. Sure, he's hoping they can win, he's just so conservative and in games like this on the road, you need to take chances and not just one time or series, you need to try things you haven't done in all aspects offensively, defensively and special teams throughout the game. Doing those types of things to surprise and shock, it's not in his DNA.
