Gophers kicking game is shaky to start with and was even worse that day with their starting kicker out. He had missed a long field goal that I still have no idea why they attempted and also ended up missing a extra point later in the game. I was all for going for it there down 20-13 and it was a great play call Johnson just plain dropped it.

I would like to see what might have happened if Iowa had to start from their own 7 rather than the 22. I don't know that it makes a huge difference but that Johnson drop certainly is one that you can look back on. Weird thing is PJ had already checked on a few guys who were down earlier in the game just like that and he has always done that. They tried to say he ran out their too fast that time but he pretty much always gets out there like that with an injury. Seemed like it was just a convenient excuse to throw the flag on the Gophers since they had already thrown one on Iowa after that play.

I know he would lose a year, but he would have 2 years at the new school to learn and get used to the offense. I personally don't think you have anything to worry about with Lance.

Well, the last two QB's before him are both in the NFL, so why in the hell would he leave? Are you dumb, or just really really hate that NDSU is light years ahead of UND? 6

The Sicatoka Posted December 8, 2019 Posted December 8, 2019 Mr. Lance has nothing to worry about. NFL scout find qualified resources wherever they are. He'll be found.

The play i referred to was early in the game when Minnesota had the lead.

That was the Wisconsin game where the Gophers got ahead, Iowa jumped out to a 13-0 lead in their game.

It's probably close to that. To break it down: Noise is certainly a factor for the opposition. I'd put that at 12 points. Smell of bison fans. Hard for visiting teams to catch their breath amidst the flatulence and BO. I'd put that at 7 points. Size of bison fans. Seeing people this large, especially for the first time, can be a distraction to young players. 6 points. NDSU team juice bar. Team exclusive formulations and sideline injections of mountain dew and folgers crystals that get their players to the edge of breaking banned substance rules. I'd put that at 10 points. Hey what do you know, we agree. 35 points it is! 3

I don't hate NDSU enough to go on their fansite and jump all over a comment based on what other players in FCS have done in the past. Are you dumb, or just did a bad crop piss on your holiday? 4

Great athlete doesn’t turn the ball over and his team hasn’t lost a game. He hasn’t thrown an interception all year Gopher QB has been outstanding. They are both very good. So yeah, I think he is as good if not better than Morgan. They are a bit different in that Lance seems to be a better runner but they are both very good. Believe it or not I’m not a Bison fan, but I’m not blind. There is a big difference between MVAC and Big10 but Lance would also be very good Big 10 QB. But of course, as usual, I could be wrong.

I've seen every snap of Morgan this year and also seen a couple full games of Lance and parts of other games. I like Lance and he has played well but no way am I gonna say a QB who hasn't played one FBS team is as good or better than a guy who has proven it at that level and was all conference in the Big Ten leading his team to 10 wins.

I’ve talked with dozens of friends in the last two years who are lifelong diehards who have simply stopped going to games because there are very few opponents who are interesting at this point. They attempt to sell their tickets every weekend and sometimes can’t even give them away. Attendance might be a problem moving forward unfortunately.

There was no reason for him to run on the field. He got excited because of the late hit and was putting on a show like he always does.
