Gophers need answers
It’s difficult to sing the praises of the Gophers, despite their victory over Oregon State on Thursday, when Darell Garretson, a quarterback who hadn’t played in nearly two years, completely dominated them for most of the game.
Garretson passed for 228 yards and three touchdowns on 25-for-40 passing. But he was most impressive early. In the first quarter he passed for 64 yards and a touchdown, while the Gophers’ Mitch Leidner was struggling, completing only two passes for 11 yards.
Garretson was also hammered on a sack by KiAnte Hardin that forced him to leave the field for some time. Two other Gophers were ejected from the game for targeting Garretson.
Luckily, the Gophers play Indiana State on Saturday. They should be able to win that game easily since the FBS Sycamores were just 5-6 last year, including a 38-14 loss to Purdue, one of the worst teams in the Big Ten.
But the Gophers need to definitely improve in all facets of the game.
