Official second-half thread: Minn vs. NU

[Deeringfish]

Austin Carr has been a pleasant surprise

 

[AlvinMack]

Good to have Frazier back.

 

[Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan]

Unsung heroes are Dickerson and Jones and others with their pass blocking! Nice work

We can beat Michigan in the Big House with this team!

 

[FeliSilvestris]

Totally unnecessary for JJ to continue to get this punishment, at this point...he is needed for the rest of the season!!...and so do the other backs, including AA!!

 

[Deeringfish]

Long is back in.

Nice Punt. The D should have a field day with this

Told you

 

[SmellyCat]

Walk walks in!!

 

[PlowKing2]

WTF is going on with the refs? Great that we are destroying Minnesota AND beating the refs.

 

[SmellyCat]

Nice for Walker to get a TD after dropping a couple of pick sixes earlier in the year.

 

[Deeringfish]

Now will we see Alviti?

No Kidding

 

[SmellyCat]

I love me some Justin Jackson, but I hope they hide his helmet.

 

[Deeringfish]

No second strin QB toobad

I think Long is still out

 

[Deeringfish]

Alviti? Oliver? Just to practive in game snaps and protect Thorson?

 

[Sheffielder]

I'm hating the alternate uniforms less and less...

 

[SmellyCat]

I want the shutout so bad.

 

[FeliSilvestris]

Anybody knows why is CT still out on the field? Can't we trust our D enough, to take a little 'risk' and play either one of the backup QB's (while protecting CT from possible injury)? What if we need one of them, eventually????

 

[Seattle_Cat]

Punt?

 

[SmellyCat]

Ok, three minutes left, Minnesota has given up by punting. We should be done with Thorson, right? And if not, no more QB draws.

 

[Deeringfish]

I'm hating the alternate uniforms less and less...

I feel that same emotional shift

 

[Seattle_Cat]

Why is Thorson still in the game?

Running the ball with him no less. I would bring in Oliver just to prevent injury for Thorson more than getting experience for oliver

 

[Deeringfish]

Me too

Well, at least AA has had some touches...while protecting the others....if only our backup QB's could at least be trusted to hand the FB to AA....with a 27-0 lead, in the last few minutes of a game...apparently they can't.

 

[SmellyCat]

Yes!

That was a dominating victory. I don't know how good Minnesota is, but they're clearly not as good as Northwestern. On to the Big House.

Yes AA took some hard hits, that by itself is good pratice and experience

 

[Katatonic]

The Shuler punt return and the fumble recovery for a TD helped, but this game ultimately was won in the trenches (pretty impressive against a Minny team that is usually pretty good up front).

Nice thing about a D like this, we don't need to score too many points to make the other team feel our boot on their throat!

Will be tough on other teams if the 'Cats get the lead (esp. a 2 score lead - preferably 2 TDs).

 

[DkeCat]

Just think how good he will be in two years when he is stronger and smarter and faster

If he's still around

 

[Mr. Stupor]

Now will we see Alviti?

How many times do I have to say this? You will not see Alviti in anything that matters unless there is absolutely no other choice.
