OT- Minnesota

Boy it sure would have been nice to have Minny on the schedule this year. Losing by 11 to NIU, 1-3 going into big ten play, and giving up 223 rushing yards to NIU back on only 15 carries. How much longer does Brewster have up in Minneapolis?

barring an unlikely turnaround. They appear to be headed for a 1-11 or 2-10 season, which shouldn't happen in a coach's fourth year. If they had played well last year they might have earned Brewster some slack, but they squeaked into a minor bowl at 6-6 with a team that was about at the level of Mason's worst teams.

Poor Minnesota.  Northern's D was shooting through their line over and over again, Weber has seemingly regressed, and I'm fairly certain Brewster was outcoached in about every aspect of the game.  If Minnesota wins more than one more game this year I will be shocked.

I wouldn't be shocked if Minnesota beat someone unexpected in the Big Ten, but I would if Purdue did. Purdue is flat out BAD. 

edit: unless I missed something. I'll have to go read something about Minnesota. Either way Minny and Purdue both ran coaches out a few years ago and now they are both much worse. At least both were average under the formers.

Let's see how they do after losing to Wiscy and Michigan.  I could easily see them losing to NW, Iowa, and PSU, too.  Their victory over ND screwed up my projection of MSU as a 6-6 team again.  Now they are looking like they are guaranteed a winning record at 7-5 before an easy bowl opponent.

Brewster has been 1-11, 7-6 (Bowl loss), 6-7 (Bowl loss) and the expectation for 2010 (year 4) is a major turnaround.  It's not going to happen, mainly because of the situation on defense (last in scoring defense and 10th in rushing defense). 

Brewster can't maintain a staff either. He's changed his offensive strategy from spread to pro set in 3 years and has lost a decent DC in Ted Roof.

IMO They should have tried harder to hire Tony Dungy (a former Minn QB).
