Big D today

[BHappelsArmy]

The D had been bad until today. They did their job very well on the road today and gave us every opportunity. From causing turnovers to holding the trenches and going 3 and out. Excellent field position all day. Just a good disciplined showing today. Much improved. The offense, KF's clock management, GD's play calling, the O line, CJ's accuracy, etc.... not so much

Shout out to Hesse... I think he may be getting closer to being healthy and I think it showed today.

Gophers were averaging about 37 points per game. We held them to 7

D played great today. Got to laugh at the goofs. The goofs kept making fun of our easy schedule last year and saying that's why we were 12-0. Well goofs you have a very easy schedule this year and you've lost 2 already! Lol silly goofers.

CJ played well today considering our oline can't sustain blocks at all and receivers who drop the ball.

He had a couple bad decisions but CJ was ok today. Still too many drops by the receivers(that can be fixed). Pass protection was better today as well. Playcalling was bad again, especially in the redzone.

Bower has been consistent all year, and had a monster game today!

Minny's longest run today was 11 yards. Total rush yards just 101. HUGE Improvement.

 

[HawkeyeWalker]

Bower had a good game. The defense as a whole had a good game. Outside of 2 drives and few great catches by minny receivers, it was a great defensive effort.

I wish this defense would have showed up against Northwestern, we'd be 3-0 in conference.

I really hope the D has turned the corner, cuz we won't have a chance against Michigan, Wisconsin, Nebraska, or Pedo St if the D plays like they did before today.

And against NDSU, we'd be 6-0. But alas...

True and then we'd probably be ranked in the top 10, and the thought of that makes me shutter.
