The Flecktites will carry PJ Fleck on their shoulders to the College Football Hall of Fame and regardless of the first half of this season continue to believe he isn't the same coach that shit the bed against Northwestern, Purdue, and Bowling Green the past three years. Then spend the rest of the many long years ahead of us with PJ Fleck as our coach praying we crack the top half of the B1G.
Next year, 6 of the top ten teams in the country this week are in the B1G. If we were playing in the B1G East, we wouldn't remember the Fleck years anywhere near how Fleck keeps trying to spin his "accomplishments."
We played a real, live, top tier football team last night. For all of the people who have been convinced that PJ Fleck has changed anything in Minnesota, last night was a reminder that, nothing has changed. We played a real offense again this year, and our record against real offenses is.... 0-2, being outscored 83-23. The good news is we don't play another strong offense this year. tOSU is a good offense, but is not on par with Michigan or NC. They'll most likely hang between 30-50 points on us simply because we'll wear down in the second half.
I vote we play the games, but I for one hope we aren't "treated" to round two of the absolute whooping we were handed last night.
