A generous article written by David Rahme at Syracuse.com.

"...It was the first time this season Nassib looked uncomfortable, some of it his own doing but a lot of it due to the pressure Minnesota was able to bring on him without help from its back seven.

“We were able to do it with our front four for the most part,” Kill said. “Anytime you can make the other quarterback uncomfortable while using just your front four you have a good chance to be successful.”

Conversely, anytime an offensive line can protect its quarterback adequately in the face of added pressure it also has a chance to be successful. That is exactly what happened, as SU tried every blitz in the book to rattle Shortell but got to him only twice."
