Minnesota Postgame: Were You Surprised?
Absolutely, good throws and he would have had longer TD passes. Great grabs bailed him out. There have been a least 3 other finger tip catches this year that could have easily been drops. A little more air under the ball please when a receiver is out in the open. Not surprised by the score. I thought we should be in the 40's and was hoping for 10 max by gophers.

A bit off subject... but I doubt we lose to Indiana again should we get the chance.

Those Damned Beavers
I remember waking up, laying in bed, listening to the radio and hearing the announcement of Dennis Erickson going to Oregon State. My first thought was, "That's got to be a mistake news story." And although he wasn't there very long, they certainly won some football games in 2001. The only one they lost was at Washington by 3. And although, I naturally can't stand the Beavers, I loved seeing them absolutely dismantle Notre Dame in the Fiesta Bowl. Agreed that if the playoff existed, they very possibly could have won the whole thing.

Think we root for getting as highly ranked as possible imo. TAM currently down big. Go team chaos.

Minnesota Postgame: Were You Surprised?
I doubt that any of us are surprised that we won the game, but I am extremely pleasantly surprised at how complete of a game we played... especially considering the injuries that we have. Once again, our defense was excellent. If I'm looking at it right, our D has only given up an average of 1.5 TDs per game, and many of those came late in the game during garbage time. And although we're talking about Minnesota, I am still very impressed with our run game. OBD put up about 180 yds, while averaging 6 yds per carry. Given that Dante was throwing the ball so ridiculously well, and all over the field, we really didn't need more yards out of our run game last night. I loved seeing our tight end studs getting the ball so often. I was impressed that Dante was quite often looking off the defense, and not locking on to one primary receiver. When he does this, and when he has time to do this, he is quite dangerous for our opponents. He also had some fakes that were, frankly, spectacular. And when he chose to run, he chose well. We have a very good team. But I'm still a bit confused by them. But if they continue to gel over the next two weeks and win out, and we get some players back, I think we could make a very interesting run in the playoffs.

I was pleasantly surprised to see how deep our wide receiver room and tight end room truly are.

Below are my initial observations: • Dante Moore was spectacular (90% completion rate on 30 passes for over 300 yards and 2 TDs). He was a little off early in the game and his receivers picked him up with some spectacular catches. As RGIII said, tonight he made all of the throws. Hopefully this gives him some confidence, after a few miserable weather games, heading down the final stretch. • Kenyon Sadiq and our receivers. Wow. That’s all I can say. They made some spectacular catches - diving, in traffic, dragging their toe to stay in bounds. I can’t wait until we start getting healthy but everyone stepped up tonight and showed that they can ball out. • The defense played extremely well, as always but still has some room to improve to be considered elite. For example, the one Minnesota TD drive where they got burned for some chunk yards against really good calls against the defense formations (e.g., the run to the side we blitzed from). The one field goal was on our offense as they turned it over on our side of the field. Our secondary needs to start picking the ball off. • Why were the Minnesota players chirping against a superior team and down a few TDs? I just don’t understand it.

Those Damned Beavers
Since my step-Dad played for the Beavers until Pearl Harbor, I pretty much grew up surrounded by, as well as watching the beach rats play. I grew to like the Ducks in spite of that, which made some days of my youth more difficult to endure. When Dad's boss realized I was a Duck fan, he began sharing his donor seats with me and my friend, and later with my son. They were three rows back, around the 40 yard line, for quite a while. Im still watching!

Oh, Oh, IO. A knock on Nico's noggin means he won't play in Columbus today. Is there a mercy rule in the Big Ten?

Wow....An OBD Member NAILED the Precise Score?
The pigs i grew up around had good instincts, as good sense of smell, and a healthy appetite... you sniffed out a winner. Great guess!

A bit of a reality check for Beavis that might fly under the radar. James Franklin is the leading candidate at VaTech as of today. That is probably a program Beavis would have considered themselves (incorrectly) better than 3 years ago. Franklin wouldn’t even give them a whiff now.

Ducks vs Gophers is B1G - Comment on Other Week 12 Games
A game I missed in looking ahead to this week's games was an important G6 game that sees 25 USF at Navy, today at 9 AM on ESPN 2. The G6 rep will likely come from the American conference, and USF is the committee's frontrunner. Still wallowing in last night's game that was not wallowed in the mire.
