per Chip:

Rhoda, meanwhile, played the role of game manager. He attempted only 18 passes and finished with a modest 122 yards — 50 yards coming on a short catch, long run by tight end Nate Wozniak.

The coaching staff hasn’t asked Rhoda to test himself much as a passer. His menu mostly revolves around screens, slants and dump-offs. Very few deep shots.

The strategy hasn’t been sexy, but it’s been effective.

“On offense, we’ve got to be a lot more creative,” Fleck said.

Maybe that will happen as Rhoda gains more experience or receivers other than Tyler Johnson prove capable of making plays consistently.

Their nonconference tuneups are over, and the Gophers running game and defense look ready for Big Ten competition. The passing game remains a big question mark.
