[GAME THREAD] Football at Minnesota (September 14 - 3:30:00 PM)

well....lunsford is going to start sounding a lot like summers if the losses begin to pile up. there's still time to turn things around but optimism will start to fade. you'd think with the consistency in the coaching staff from last year our execution wouldn't be so sloppy.

Three questions
1. Is our inability to run on the outside because of our O line or lack of speed?
2. Why has tackling regressed?
3. Why is there still a problem with the exchange? Ton of low snaps this time.

To answer question 1...have any of you watched any other FB games over the last several years. No other FBS team gets more 7 or 8-man defensive boxes against us than us. No. Other. FBS. Team.

And no amount of flexboner oil is going to change that. We need to be more than one dimensional AND recruit OL like Wisconsin does.

So.....who do we fire this week?

What an amazing game. I hated it! I really thought my Gophers would slaughter GSU, but I was wrong. That was a hard-fought game, and the win was at your fingertips. Congratulations to a GSU team that's good and getting better, and which will accomplish great things soon.

glad you came over, you will find that your HC will get the best out of your kids, they will find a way to win as they have shown you these 3 games. Good teams find a way to win.

Congrats to the Gophers who deserved the win. Sloppy play from both teams today with Minn clearly being more talented and complete. Eagles beating Eagles so far with the poor snaps. Tomlin has done everything possible to fill in. Hopefully we look crisper with Shai back. 1-2 is a normal start.

The idiot who got in the refs way on the sideline?

ga southern wouldn't have beaten ga tech today.

I agree that we have bigger problems. I should have phrased better but there’s a difference in knowing the offense and getting in game action and knowing how to cut off blocks and getting vertical when he keeps on the option. Nothing more reps will not fix

We only had 205 yards of offense today, 130 on the ground, 75 in the air. We were shut out in second half, those numbers ain't going to get it done period. I know SB isn't that good but everyone on our remaining schedule is much better than Maine. If we don't start clicking on offense and knock off the sloppy play Louisiana will beat us by 14 in Paulson.

We all thought we’d be 1-2 and almost got that 2-1. Missing who we are missing still has me excited despite losing this one. We were soooo close. Should’ve held them. I’m sick. Daughter posted an embarrassing collage!

I'm going to disagree with that. Tech is horrendous.
