Fleck on KFAN “all that falls on me” in response to Gophers performance.

Oh, yeh. I agree with that.

My guess ion that was two things.

1. They were going to ensure Mo got his 100 yards last night no matter what. I predicted 30 carries for Mo coming in and that's what he got.

2. Let's keep the training wheels on AK even though he AK says he's ready so we limit his mistakes and "hopefully" we can Tressel ball our way to victory. (and it didn't work). After we got down 14, then we started to play more open offensively, but we were already behind the 8 ball there.

I believe if Tanner wasn't dinged and he was starting, we would have been more pass-orientated to start the game to get the defense out of the box, but with AK, we just tried to run against a brick wall to help AK avoid a first quart pick-six.
Penn State had just given up over 400 yards rushing to Michigan the week before.

We were going to try to run the ball, no matter what. They obviously knew that and stuffed it.
