Gophers have struggled to get into press before Neb but when it works, they look good

per Amelia blog:

But when the Gophers have managed to do it, they’ve found it pretty successful. On Tuesday, Rodney Williams cited the early press as the match that lit his fire.

“The thing that really got me going was when we started pressing,” he said. “I think when we come out aggressive like that, that gets everybody going. So, I think from now on, we’ll be a team that’s going to come out and press from start to finish from now on.”

Except, that theory could be tested very shortly, say, when they face Wisconsin again in less than two weeks.

“I’m not naïve enough to believe we can do that against Michigan, Wisconsin,” Smith said. “Those are great teams. That’s not derogatory, that’s nothing against Nebraska, that’s just the way the game is – matchup.”
