Well that was ugly. There was never any question that South Dakota State is a good FCS team, but they are an FCS team all the same. The Minnesota Gophers stepped up at the end when it mattered, but frankly that just raises of questions like “what took you so long to wake up?” At the end of the day though, a win is a win, even if it’s only 28-21.
Quick Thoughts
- Kamal Martin being out hurt the defense. There are more than a few things to dislike about the defensive performance tonight, but the LB play was a large one.
