Here in Mn for a family affair and got away to see the game tonight. Wow! Wow, what a beautiful stadium! Wow, what a poorly coached team!
I was really confused by the whole thing. This was a team that gave up huge running yards to Illinois. Minnesota is a team that wants to "Pound the rock" to keep our defense off the field. A natural for a convincing win? Nope, we came out throwing the football, kept the D on the field and got killed.
It's clear to me that the offensive line is just plain poor. The defensive front seven can't get close to the Qback and they cannot tackle. Given the quality of athletes we've brought in, I'm hard pressed to say it's anything but poor coaching.
I really like Brewster, he looked the press in the eye after the game and didn't make any excuses. I love his commitment to the program and his enthusiasm. I really hope the season turns around starting next week, but I don't believe in the tooth fairy. This is a bad team. It's a bad team with many very good athletes. Please, Brew, turn this season around. I for one, would love to see your happy face again next year.
