Michigan St. Spartans at Minnesota Golden Gophers, Oct 31, 2009 7:00 PM CDT
The most recent biggest game of the year. Michigan State and Minnesota will conceivably be fighting for similar bowl destinations and this game may be rather significant when all is said and done. Unfortunately the Gophers have been playing their worst football of the year and Eric Decker is no longer going to be available to the struggling offense. Will the offense continue to struggle, putting the defense on the field for far too many plays? Or will adjustments be made and we'll see them move the ball for the first time in weeks?

Here We Go!
Lets make this a house of horror for Sparty. Go Gophers and please please please play Gray!

So glad that wasn't reviewed
…because I’m not sure he didn’t step out and I’m not sure we could have scored from the 30.
by rencito on Oct 31, 2009 7:07 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
I said that before...
…they told us about the holding call. That was NOT the perfect play for 2nd and 20. For third and 5 it would have been.

I think Green got away with a push off there
…but I’ll take it!
by rencito on Oct 31, 2009 7:11 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
This is exactly what we needed
to set the tempo for the rest of the game.
14-0 and their offense hasn’t even seen the field yet.

Actually nice pass protection on that play...

Weber
2/3 for Weber, 99 yds and 2 TDs.
Both of those passes were on the money, too, although Bennett was wide open.

Decker like dimension??
What the hell is he talking about?
Gray looked as bad on Weber on that one. Not even close.

I like the Gray play...move the pocket....get a pass off

Gray put the ball where only a MN play could have got it...unlike Weber

at screen passes. Seriously awful.

MSU can't catch a pass
is the cold becoming a factor?
by rencito on Oct 31, 2009 7:35 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
I say that
and then they get a 10 yard gain on a pass. Stupid.

Nice tackle by Sherels
I still wish they would use their arms, though!
by rencito on Oct 31, 2009 7:42 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
We need more points, or at least a few first downs
We cannot afford to let the momentum shift back to them. Our defense needs a breather.

Meh
Stoudermire needs to just be happy with getting out to the 35…don’t try to be a hero.

Not a good start to the drive
On pace for about 100 yards of penalties here.

Weber is
Jeckyll and Hyde. There he looked really good looking of his receivers and finding the open guy.

MSU
Knows that 80% of the time Gray gets the ball he is running up the middle. Do something different!

That was better by Whaley
Hit the hole harder that time and got a decent gain.
by rencito on Oct 31, 2009 7:51 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Wow
Hoese almost dropped that. Whew. Glad he hung on. That could have been big if we had to punt right there.
by rencito on Oct 31, 2009 7:52 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Should have been caught
but that was behind the receiver. Our QBs need to work on throwing the football through the old tire.
by rencito on Oct 31, 2009 7:55 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
45 yds in penalties already
Every week it is the same story.
by rencito on Oct 31, 2009 7:56 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
OMG Stoudermire
He usually gets those, but that one REALLY hurts. That was 6.
by rencito on Oct 31, 2009 8:07 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Actually
Stoudermire took a bad route to the ball on that one.
by rencito on Oct 31, 2009 8:23 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Brewster needs to move on
from that call. Just score on the next play instead of arguing with the official.
by rencito on Oct 31, 2009 8:24 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
I say we run and run again if we get stopped
We need 6

Nice coaching....
penalties, late hits, cheap shots….Brewster never pulls a player aside to teach or reprimand him either….he’s got the look Monson had as Gophers coach. The game seems bigger than him….needs to keep recruiting, and surround himself with coaches who can coach during the game. This is embarrassing.

How about the # of late hits/personal fouls on Lawrence this season? Love his passion, but his game sense is horrible.
by jimipig on Oct 31, 2009 9:19 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
That’s why I’m thinking let Brewster be buddies with the players and recruit, let his coaches, who are better X’s and O’s guys than him, deal with the “hard stuff”.

Loving watching USC lose. Loved watching Illinois do something special today. Waiting for Minnesota to do something unexpected this season. I guess Purdue was that game…I should have enjoyed it more than I did.

Agreed…we had more than a minute, and 70 yards. Give it a shot. 11 points and we sit and head into the locker room…knowing we kick off to start the 2nd half?
