per Randy:
We’ve seen the potential. Three fourth-quarter touchdown passes against Michigan State. A promising first quarter against Michigan. A 64-yard touchdown dash against Oregon State.
And we’ve seen the struggles. Five-for-15 with two interceptions against Illinois. Nine-for-29 against Iowa. A 38.2 completion percentage over the past four games.
For Demry Croft, and his Gophers, the season hasn’t played out as hoped. The team is treading water at 4-5, having lost five of six Big Ten games. And Croft, given the chance to start, has failed to seize control of the quarterback job.
But beginning Saturday against Nebraska (4-5, 3-3 Big Ten) at TCF Bank Stadium and continuing through season’s end, Croft will try to show what we have yet to see: distinct development, clear improvement, resolve.
“We’re going to respond in a good way this week,” the sophomore said. “After you take something like that this past weekend, you come back a little hungry. And I feel we’ll be hungry this week.”
