Just saw the ending of the TCU at Arizona game. Wild finish with AZ recovering an onside kick with 1:45 left and then hitting a game winning field goal. Special Teams;-)

Didn't understand why TCU even bothered trying to fields that kick. It was really more of a pooch kick than a true onside kick and he could have just let it roll.

Holy fuck Texas bailed out again by a bad call/review. This time Manning chucks the ball downfield 10 yards, but because his arm was hit, and a Texas player picked up the ball off the turf, they call it a fumble and recovery for a first down on 3rd and long. Then they uphold the call on review.

How are the gophers 10X what OSU is at rushing the passer and special teams?

Their special teams always are on point.

Their kicker is 16/17 hitting field goals from 60 with yards to spare and they just downed a punt at the inch yard line when their gunners threw it back into the field of play and the other players ran up sliding to down it.

If that’s OSU the kick is landing at the 15 first off, and if it does miraculously land inside the 5 it’s either skipping into the end zone or one of our players is knocking it into the end zone

Fleck is a Tressel disciple and it’s the only way to build a team in a place like Minny.

Run, stop the run, good special teams, play a lot of close games by design and hope you get lucky sometimes.

I thought similarly… I know he gets shit from everyone but I think he’d kill it at a big time school.

Always good defenses and always elite special teams. If he could get someone to call an offense he’d have something going.

Btw tough draw for Minnesota. TCUN, Indiana, UCLA, Iowa, Washington, then close with Penn State, Northwestern, and Wisconsin.

Minnesota has a nice team. They just have to win the games they’re supposed to. They shouldn’t lose to Cal and then to Purdue.
