Why???? because he didn't consider it a hit unless they woke up on the sidelines with train whistles blowing in their head?
I don't think he considered it a hit if they woke up

@GopherRock @Benthere2

Do you see a path to the postseason for this Gopher team? I was just looking at the schedule and it's certainly not easy by any stretch. My thoughts are below. Red is a loss, blue is a tossup, green is a win.

Thoughts? Does PJ survive this outcome?


i would consider rutgers a game they could win but they're not running all those toss ups, probl split them so 4-8. they're bleeped.

i guess iowa should be toss up too. any team that scores 10pnts a game is always beatable.

I'm not firing a coach in August, but past results are an indicator of future performance. And the results as of late are not pretty. PJ survives it, but the bilge pumps are running at full blast. More importantly, there are noo signs that PJ is going to be able to move the ball against living, breathing defenses. Add in a long history of issues in the kicking game, and his seat starts heating up soon.

Actually, don't be surprised if the drums don't start pounding sooner. The Vikings are going to be hideous, but the Twin Cities media loves Kevin OConnell and won't turn their ire on him. Not while PJ is bleeding in Dinkytown.

Looking forward to seeing how Wisconsin and MSU look tonight.  Yes- not world beater opponents, and yes, typically the defenses are way ahead of the offenses this early in the season, but it’s still Big Ten football!

MSU is off to a slow start. They are in a scoreless tie with FAU.

Uhhhhh, the B1G replay team is a big 0-1 on the season.  That wasn't even close and they got it wrong.
Sparta got screwed.

Chiles first pass is an INT on a SHIT review call.

If we agree, then they MUST have gotten hosed!

The starting QB for UNC is the son of longtime Vikings QB Brad Johnson. And he's currently being carted off with an ugly knee injury.
He played QB for A&M, and before that LSU. He got injured here a few times too.

Opening a season's scoring on a safety is the ultimate sparty thing to do.

I know, OSU always gets dinged for letting teams hang around early. So it's fun to do the same thing to others. 

Sparty only up two, halfway through the first quarter.
