58 doughnut. Pathetic performance by the Gophers today, this is a BAD BAD football team. I really want to give coach Kill the benefit of the doubt, he seems like a good guy, but this team has been God awful so far this year, I mean historically God awful too, even by the low Gopher football standards. What's most disconcerting to me is that I really haven't seen improvement as the season has moved along.
Observations:
-The Gophers did not show up to play again today, some of that has to fall on the coaches. If this keeps up, the Jerry Kill honeymoon may be short lived, he is looking completely overmatched at this level so far.
-Tackling was atrocious.
-Lots of penalties once again, that falls on the coaching too.
-5 games, 2 sacks. How's that even possible??
-Brewster recruits don't seem to buying into Kill's system, almost no leadership at all from the upper classes.
-The Gophers overall lack of athleticism was never more noticeable than today (especially with MarQueis Gray & Troy Stoudermire out today due to injuries).
-No doubt, the cupboard was bare talent-wise for Kill & staff, but this is ridiculous, they lacked discipline, they lacked execution and they lacked effort.
-So far, Coach Kill get an F grade from me.
-Can we now stop with the calls to start Max Shortell at QB, he's obviously not ready, especially given the weak offensive line where someone with Gray's scrambling ability is much needed.
-Up next is Purdue (2-1) in West Lafayette, Purdue is probably the weakest team left on the Gophers schedule, I'm still predicting a Purdue blowout though.
