Certainly can't blame AK, he had a very good game. He really should have had a 300 yard game...Fleck and Co are so predictble and conservative.

We are going to lose a ton of games this year, and where is there any hope for next year?

We overworked our single running back, a true freshman, during the game. An injury was predictable. And when you decide to run your offense as a one-legged stool, you are in huge trouble when that leg cracks.

I agree—shades of the tOSU loss when Mo was injured. Darius Taylor did not play in the later part of the game. Was he hurt? Northwestern's Defense crushed the Gophers' Offense in the second half.

The Gophers were unidimensional. Not utilizing all the weapons at their disposal is a mistake.

AK must get better fast for the Gopher Offense to succeed. Where are the QB coaching and mentoring?

The Gophers need a dynamic passing offense. They need to adapt to the new Big Ten.

This single-back model is not going to work in the new Big Ten. NC, Illinois, and now NW know how to defeat the Gophers with thoughtful adjustments because the Gophers have become predictable.

TOP is somewhat essential. But it is leading to playing not to lose. Why not take a chance on the other WRs and RBs?

When KC was the Gophers' OC, he spent hours digesting different college and pro games films for dynamic playmaking based on talent. Greg Harbaugh needs to step up.

Can we see more multiple WR/TE formations to spread the defenses with a credible running threat?

the gopher receivers are generally covered. They lack speed and athleticism. That is a massive problem when you throw. Iowa has this problem, Wisconsins has this problem, etc.

Memo to PJ Fleck:

Please recruit high-level talent aggressively. Wide receivers are on top of that list.

The Gophers fall short of the vital ingredient - major impact player(s) that make others around them better.

Does the Dinky Town Athletes have deep enough pockets? Now is the time to go to the next level. Spend money if that is what it takes.

Get lucky in the Transfer Portal and High School Recruiting.

The Gophers are missing the Rashod Batemans of this world.

Recruiting has fallen short of championship caliber. PJ Fleck, go get them!

If the only recruits that will come to MN are 2 & 3s (historical evidence) why do you think all of a sudden Fleck will get 4s & 5s?
