I don't know how many people heard me at the game, so I'll say it again. You'd think he could have bought a pair of hands with that credit card.

For those that believe in Karma, Geter gave Brandon what he deserved.

If there was one thing that gave me concern for tonight, it was playing Geter after only a one game suspension. I think he should lose the season.

I don't think his fumbles were the key turning points. Fumbling the opening kick-off was along with that 4th down conversion by Minnesota in the 4th quarter I think.

Bullock should start the rest of the year. Geter is really fast, but he coughs up the ball way too much. Turnovers destroyed our chances tonight.

That was a team-sized turd of an effort. Special teams was terrible, defense was timid early, and the offense just shot itself in the foot continually.

Geter isn't completely to blame, but he sure contributed to a really bad effort.

Well Bullock got benched last year because of turnovers .... maybe its time for Geter to sit a few out to think about his actions both on and off the field.

Chris Bullock needs to be our feature back again - he is really good.

Not a fan of Geter's at all right now. His actions on and off the field have really pissed me off. I still think he shouldn't be on the team.

He better hope he holds onto the soap better than he does a football.

We were saying the same thing...Karma bit Brandon in the AZZ. 2 fumbles.
I would have tried to throw all my seat cushions at Geter, but I throw like a girl. :roll:

I am glad that GB made a BFD about Bullock being the starter against Minny, how he earned it with his play against Pitt. Uh, Bullock was in on the first play (a pass play) and then I think he got pulled for the rest of the drive in favor of Geter. :roll: I think Bullock might have been in there for a total of 10-12 plays last night. Somebody correct if I'm way off.

Karma got ya GB. Now run the ball with Bullock a little more.

I normall;y don't like to see threads devoted to bashing a single player....in this case I'm a little more open to the concept. It bugged me seeing Geter and Hodges in unifrm and Lorenzi on the sidelines with the rest of the team. I think they have been suspended for a good bit longer.

Other than that. Geter has a world of talent...that 11 yard gain he had where he stopped/started and danced along the sidelines was Reggie Bush-ish, but I don't think he should be the feature back in our offense. I think the spread is better suited for a north-south back like Bullock than little guy like Geter that tries to bounce it to the edge so frequently. If anything, Geter should be getting 10 or so touches a game with Bullock getting closer to 20.

So far as the fumbles go...I think you have to give some credit to the Gophers too. They did an excellent job of holding our guys up for the strip. The officials could have been a little quicker with the whistle once forward progress was halted, but the Gophers executed really well.
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.

Bullock and AT would way better options in our running offense...Geter is too small not short but small the D-lineman blow him over.
