Gopher stuff at 20:20

calls Annexstad strong kid who can make all the throws, led a great drive late with a fabulous scramble to find the really talented WR Johnson

says similar offense to what they ran at WMU, pound the football inside, inside zone, split zone

calls wildcat package with big Seth Green and extra blockers very effective

notes four experienced returning starters on o-line

calls Winfield dynamic (and his dad one of greatest ever) on d and on punt

dline strong up front and notes Coughlin as a wrecking ball, so disruptive to run and pass, in the backfield all the time

notes Cashman physical and all over the field

says Gophers have good experience on defense, look like a Big Ten defense, big, physical, hard to run against, really sound on pass game

thinks Gophers a little more prolific than UC on offense, more advanced in pass game than UC,

expects pound, pound, pass

final few minutes in this video talks Gophers...likes "gigantic" oline with four returning starters, talks about Gophs having a lot of returning starters on defense, says QB has thrown ball well, nice complemt of rcvrs, some returning, some young, team is a model of Big Ten: big, physical...oline will get on you, lean on you, hit you north and south, very patient with run game, wear you down, wait for you to make mistake...his team still recovering from similar physical run game attack vs Cinci, calls MN offense more balanced
 

Nice summary. Thank you swingman.
