What grade would you give Gophers coaches in loss to PSU?

 

[GophersInIowa]

The gameplan was fine. They had the guys ready to play. I said B only because of a few questionable calls like the pass to Ersery.

 

[upnorthkid]

went B. put together a good gameplan to be able to run the ball the best we have in awhile. got a little too conservative at times however (you have to have some guts to win this kind of game and can't rely on FGs). 1st trick play was a nice call and time for it. second was horrible.

B. Pretty good. O Line was improved. Run game worked.

That play call in particular at that time of the game made no sense at all

It looked like they made the most of their bye week, we just made mistakes where they didn't. It was an entertaining game.

 

[gophers&guns]

As others have said it was an entertaining game, the team fought hard, but came up short. Have to say I would’ve never seen the flea flicker or an attempted pass to a lineman in the cards.

Went with B, we came ready to play! Lose turnover battle

 

[gopherbadgerman]

B. Good solid game. PSU had better players.

 

[MNVCGUY]

Glad to see some sanity on display in this thread. I also went B, solid effort but couldn't overcome a few critical mistakes.

 

[WCGopher]

B
The team fought hard and played their hearts out. A few bad breaks. Wish they could have pulled it out

In hindsight - last I series need to past to the end zone 3 times if necessary. Bummer. We had a chance!

 

[BilldGopher]

Contrarian as I am went with an A. Since this is a coaches poll, fact is Franklin was glad to get out of there with the W. As usual played 'em tough and it was defense that kept us in the game. Offense had its chances but overall coaching was not bad.

 

[CentralGopher]

Thought they tried to get a little too cute on that last td attempt otherwise pretty good game plan

 

[A_Slab_of_Bacon]

Solid B

 

[DarrenTheGreek]

I voted B. Could have been A.

Brosmer made 5 mistakes. Int, fumble and 3 key misses to open receivers. Wish we would have played for a fake at the end. Such an entertaining game.

C. The play calling when we were on the 7 yard line was an F, thus bringing down their final grade to a C. Why didn't they run the same plays that have been successful in that situation earlier in the season? It was a colossal failure in my opinion. So upset. Feel really bad for the players. Harbaugh let them down, big time. Meanwhile, Penn St. OC was great at getting 44 open at will. Why can't we do that? Oh well, please kill Bucky next week.
