should more than cover. I think the over/under on us should be around 40 points. Don't see MN scoring many more than 7 on our D. And I think the D will be measuring themselves by first downs allowed rather than TDs.
I'm still thinking pretty seriously about heading up there. Seems like a fun place to see a game. Let the healing begin with an old fashioned, Bo Schembechler era Gopher beatdown.

is a lot of points especially with our offense. Minnesota plays similar to Michigan i.e. run the ball and pass when necessary. If Minnesota shuts down the running game (a distinct possibility) forcing to Michigan to pass, the game will be closer than 14 points.

If the Michigan team that played Maryland shows up, it could be a sloppy game that is like a 14-3 kind of affair. If the Michigan team that played BYU and Northwestern shows up, this could be a 35-0 kind of game that isn't even that close.

Not sure if it matters, but I was at all 3 of those games you mentioned and the weather was fantastic for the BYU and Northwestern game. The weather at Maryland was cold, somewhat windy, and wet. Not looking forward to the potential conditions for a night game in Minnesota. That should be taken into consideration.

Northwestern and Nebraska. The Gophers play hard, but they are lacking a bit in the talent department.

Minn is a poor man's northwestern. If this was in AA it would be 18-20 IMO.

There's always a chance we have 8 or 9 ejections.

Pretty much everyone has tried that. They haven't been able to stop us, including MSU and UTAH. We lost those games, but we were right there. We are not pretty on offense, but we are not last two year's offense either.

This is quite a serviceable offense from my view, as compared to the last couple of years. I recall so many times running for loss of down or loss of yardage into a stacked box, only to be sacked on 3rd & 11 trying to pass. As you say, not going to light up the opponent with an air raid show. I hope it gets incrementally better. We have a serious contest with a really good offense at the end of the season.

About the punt-safe formation. Its 10 blocking 11 on that play no matter how you slice it. And with an Aussie kicker it isn't hard to guess which side of the formation to overload as they are taking a step right towards that side.
Add in a low snap its bad. Add in a bobbled ball that gets behind the punter, its double bad. I think if its a chest high snap that's handled cleanly its off 98 times out of 100.
Hard to pin it all on the coaches.

The problem is you don't get to erase plays here and there. If you're going to pick a play to erase against msu, pick a different one. If Connor Cook didn't play well, the game wouldn't have been close, but he did and it was.

We should win handedly, but it would not surprise me if it's a 20-7 type game just due to both teams running the ball so much.

I would love to see Butt getting back in the action.
