Any Gregg Brandon info?

Word is that he is the top candidate to become the OC at the U of Minnesota...

I know he was fired at BGSU. How were his offenses? Play calling? etc

Thanks!

Don't think there's too many people on this board who AREN'T rooting for you guys this week in Columbus... I'd love to see you stuff that team. But it does appear that they may be getting Wells back. Coupled with Pryor, that's going to be a tough task...but .... GO GOPHERS! We are gonna get creamed

Hey I was just going to come back and wish you guys good luck in the MAC. Then I saw this poster--who dissed US in a thread about other dissing us. Surprised Minney doesnt have any respect at all here. Last I checked BG never had the lead in a home game with arguably their biggest crowd ever. Adam W...

Check that...TWO season ending injuries.

Bennett out for the year with an ACL, and our starting center Jeff Tow-Arnett also out for the year with an ACL.

Doyt is snake bite city for the Gophers I guess.

Good luck guys!

Wow I appreciate the optimism but we have a long ways to go. Losing Bennett sucks pretty bad. I am hoping for 6-6 this year catapulting us into the new stadium in 2009.

Update on Duane Bennett--and random Gopher thoughts

I am glad the Falcons escaped injury free. I wish I could say the same for the Gophers. RB Duane Bennett is out for the year with a torn ACL. Happened on a routine play in the 4th. He was really coming on for us too. The DE, Riggs I believe, is a real gem. As I have posted in numerous threads, Bullo...

I would have continued to pound the ball. That was Minney's weakness of defense. BGSU's offense is very tricky but it went vanilla second half--not sure why. That being said, Weber was 21/25....he is an up and coming QB but anyone completing 84% of their passes will make things tough for your team n...

I dont know why they didnt put Turner on the field more, and run Bullock more often as well. The offensive plan was confusing--esp after Gophers made adjustments. BG had 200 some passing yards in the first half and only 60 in the second half (after Gophers went to 3-4) I would have pounded the ball ...

Yeah I meant to ask...how were the Gopher fans that made the game? Did they mingle in (they are a small but tailgating focused bunch). Hope everyone had a great time--heard the atmosphere was top notch!

Good luck rest of the way Falcons!

I will definitely be rooting for you.

The defense looks improved over last year, and the offense definitely has weapons. Run that Bullock kid more often--he looks good!

I gotta think you will be favorites to win the MAC.

I think when the takeaway's are 5 for one team, and 0 for the other, its clear who did the hitting.

Your QB looked very sharp. Managed the game well and took what came to him. He didnt panic or seem to get rattled easily. He is not mobile but appears to be a better pure passer than Omar Jacobs (or did I just speak sacrilege)? You will definitely make some noise in the MAC. Consider me a fan. One p...

Congrats from a Gopher fan

Our first game in the Tim Brewster era....proved on age old adage. You need to play FOUR quarters of football. We played only two. We were OK in those two, but two wont win a game against a quality opponent. BG played overall a solid game. There were way too many penalties from your 0-line I thought...

FalconFreak, I havent counted out BGSU at all. In fact I havent even predicted a score or even a win/loss in any of my posts here. I have said confidently that Minney will do some things (rush for over 200 yards, TE will have 100 on the night) and BGSU will do some things (go vertical off play actio...

Huh???

Gopher definitely have more talent than ISU. I dont think any solid Big Ten/Big Twelve observer would disagree with that statement...

BTW we pasted Kent State at Kent State, but that was last year...
