The defense has been steady, not the offense





As Fromo said

3 points allowed by starting D in 4 games
That’s a dumb statement and unmeasurable stat. The Gophers football team has allowed 24 points this season. 6 points per game not 3 points for the season.

The NCAA doesn’t measure points scored against a 1st team defense. FWIW Iowa leads the nation averaging 5.75 points per game (Minnesota is 2nd).

Yes it does otherwise the info would not be out there.

Interesting how utterly bad Iowa's offense is and while the defense is absolutely stellar.

Also, Minnesota makes the diagonal move to Excellence in All Phases. And the Big Red regressed.

What was "out there" was a statement made on this board by Formo (Minnesota Gophers Super Fan) that you parroted. Just because someone says it doesn't make it factual.

Also FWIW ... not up to me to prove a statement that you made as true. If you make such a statement it should be on you to defend/prove that statement true if challenged!
 



In that time frame we did play a top-10 team in Oklahoma, so it makes sense our offensive efficiency would go down.

The defense is steady because it is hard to perform much worse than they have this year. By the chart, there are only around a half dozen schools worse than us defensively. Meanwhile, the offense is still around average.

Was listening to a Wisconsin sports radio show and they had a UW Badger analyst on ... remember that this is on the heels of their tOSU loss. He was asked specifically about winning the West. He said that the Badger's ILB are so bad that Minnesota's RPO game will just eat them alive.

Gopher's have an experienced QB, solid offensive line and outstanding RBs.

The RPO will cause them to take one step - just one step in the wrong direction and they will give up multiple long runs. When asked about the other teams in the West ... he said the only linebacking corp that is worse than the Badgers was Nebraska's.
