per Rossow:
It’s been a while since the Golden Gophers offense found the end zone on its opening possession against a non-conference opponent – 21 games to be exact.
It was Sept. 24, 2011, against North Dakota State. Marqueis Gray was under center. Jerry Kill was in his fourth game as head coach of the Gophers, and the Bison were three-and-a-half months away from winning the first of their five straight FCS championships.
Pouncing on another FCS opponent, Indiana State, and scoring early and often would be a huge statement for Jay Johnson’s new offense at TCF Bank Stadium on Saturday morning.
“We struggled last week getting going right away,” Gophers tackle Jonah Pirsig said. “We know we have to come out right away and step on the gas.”
