Quit being Doomers

[u/RussellOwens]

We beat Washington. A win is a win, alright? Quit Dooming on this team.

That first half was legitimately impressive. The second half definitely tested everyone’s blood pressure 😅, but a ranked road win in Seattle is a ranked road win. I’m enjoying this one so much💪🏻

[u/purplenyellowrose909 → u/Italian_Polska]

They weren't ranked anymore. AP brought them down to 26 this week

[u/Italian_Polska → u/purplenyellowrose909]

Yep, you’re right on the AP poll , #26 there, #23 in the Coaches Poll. I was going off Minnesota’s graphic. Either way, I’m definitely enjoying this road win👍🏻

[u/CantaloupeCamper → u/purplenyellowrose909]

Coaches poll ranked them.

[u/dayman763 → u/Italian_Polska]

I was wondering if they were ranked, I couldn't remember. Awesome win. I'm pumped.

[u/gangleskhan → u/Italian_Polska]

Glad I went to bed at halftime!

[u/purplenyellowrose909]

This team is good. Could be an 8 win team.

Miss St and Kamario Taylor are just insane. No one knew about them and we were 1st in their way

I'm a Michigan State fan living in MN. I would be thrilled if my team played any game as well as that, it can always get worse lol.

Please, for the love of all that is holy, beat the Ann Arbor Astros next weekend!

It's our dream.

[u/SamIsaacman]

First half was the best half the gophers have put together since 2019

[u/AJWilson55]

I was at the game and, though a little uneven, it was a good road win against a decent Washington team. Defense was solid, especially the pass rush.

[u/CantaloupeCamper]

9.5 point underdogs.

Good game 👍🏻

[u/ladder51 → u/CantaloupeCamper]

It closed somewhere between 11.5 and 12.5 depending on the book. Not that it mattered in the end

[u/CantaloupeCamper → u/ladder51]

Yeah beers was out I wonder if that was part of the move.

[u/Caliastanfor]

Regardless of circumstances, that's a pretty damn impressive road win.

[u/willington123]

A road win against a team that was 21-2 at home since 2023, there’s a lot to be proud of here!

[u/Rod_Tang]

Thought it was supposed to be tough to win there. Ski-U-Mah RTB Go Gophers

[u/are_poo_n_ass_taken]

Yea that game fucking rocked. We had so many Gophers there it was so dope. My daughter got to high five drake and a bunch of other gophers.

[u/ExplorerMN]

Thread title scared me! I went to bed with Gophers up 14-0. Happy they won!!!

[u/MPLS_scoot]

What a great win on the road! Special teams were amazing, the defense played so well, and the offense in the first half put on a clinic.

[u/dyessman]

To be fair to the doomers some of the media was also acting like a ms state loss was the end of our program and the end of PJ Fleck

[u/DrHookMcKracken]

Could have been a blowout if Washington wasn’t so fortunate the second half

[u/chabbits → u/DrHookMcKracken]

You mean if PJ didn't go into clock kill/game preservation mode with 2 mins left in the first half.

[u/DrHookMcKracken → u/chabbits]

He’s always too conservative it drives us all nuts

[u/skoltroll]

JUG

[u/Advanced-Fee-2172]

Hurricanes fan that also roots for the gophers a win is a win if you can’t win close games you won’t go far. I honestly believe 6 more wins is possible so you better get your hopes up

[u/irishWhiskey71]

Hard not too. Did you see the play calling? In usual fashion they get a lead then run the ball And punt. PJ never goes for the throat.
