The Minnesota Gophers are 2-1 as they head into a bye week before opening up Big Ten play at home against Rutgers. Thor Nystrom joins Ross to weigh in on the Minnesota Gophers loss at Cal. Having now had a few days since initially reacting to the Minnesota Gophers loss, how does Ross feel about the loss?

The game was there for the taking for the Minnesota Gophers on Saturday night, but it was not to be for a variety of reasons. Koi Perich struggled in the punt return game by calling for a fair catch at the two-yard line and muffing a punt late in the 4th quarter leading to a Cal touchdown. YIKES! The Minnesota Gophers defense didn’t force one turnover and likely didn’t pressure Cal’s true freshman QB enough. The Minnesota Gophers offense struggled to score points too. It wasn’t all bad though and there were some good things to take away from the game. The Minnesota Gophers now have two weeks to get ready for Rutgers and fix all that ailed them against Cal. Ross Brendel and Manny Hill are back for Gophers 101 on SKOR North.

The Minnesota Golden Gophers did what they needed to do by easily handling Northwestern State on Saturday afternoon by a final of 66-0. The game was so lopsided in favor of the Minnesota Gophers that it was tough to point to anything learned in the victory, but Ross and Manny did find a few things. How and who will carry the load for the Minnesota Gophers when they take on Cal if Darius Taylor is unable to play next weekend? Ross also quizzes Manny on Minnesota Gophers football teams of the past.

The Minnesota Golden Gophers won their season opener against Buffalo and redshirt freshman quarterback Drake Lindsey looked solid in the win! His numbers would have looked better too if it wasn’t for a barrage of drops by Minnesota Golden Gophers receivers. More good news, the offensive line appeared to gel for the Gophers as the game went on too! Ross and Thor also take a look around the Big Ten and preview this upcoming Saturday’s Gophers football game.

The Minnesota Golden are 1-0 behind the arm of Drake Lindsey and the legs of Darius Taylor. In our opinions the win was far more decisive than the final score indicated. BUT, what can the Minnesota Golden Gophers do to get better and what can they work on next week against and FCS opponent? It's Gophers 101 on SKOR North.
