per Sid:
Rest assured, the Gophers won’t make the same mistakes in their next two games against Northwestern and Wisconsin the way they did against Iowa in a 23-19 loss at Kinnick Stadium on Saturday.
The Gophers fell behind early, going down 13-0 in the first quarter and just barely got the score to 20-6 at the half.
Then they dominated for the most part in the second half, but they just had too many uncharacteristic plays.
“We played some of our worst football but still had a chance to win the game,” Gophers coach P.J. Fleck said to the media in Iowa City after the loss.
The Gophers still lead the Big Ten West by one game over Wisconsin. The Badgers didn’t play great at Nebraska on Saturday, and the fact is that if the Gophers win out they will reach the Big Ten championship game. Reach that game and they will have a real shot at making the Rose Bowl.
Of course if quarterback Tanner Morgan misses any significant time after suffering a concussion late in Saturday’s game, that could all change.
