We open the year hosting Minnesota. Should be a nice game for us to start the year in a big way.

True Freshman Shawn Johnson strips their HB on the 3rd play, Torin Hariis picks it up but then is tackled and fumbles it! They recover.

They march down the field passing at will. I have a feeling this is going to be a rough year for our back 7, particularly the linebackers. Down 7-0 midway through the 1st.

We fail to convert 4th and 2 on their 44. They get inside our 5 before we stop them and hold them to a short FG attempt, but they miss it!

We put together a quick striking drive, but Barkley gets hit when throwing and throws a pick into the endzone.

Towards the end of the half, Barkley finds Woods for a 16 yard TD. 7-7. Our defense has been horrible, and our offense has not been as explosive as expected. However, that was a 7 play 80 yard drive that we did in just 1:17.

They go for it on 4th and 10 on our 30 and fail to convert. Can Barkley get us into scoring range with 37 seconds left?

23 yard strike to Woods. 47 yard strike to Butler for a TD! 14-7.

We are up 14-7 at the half, and we get the ball back.

2nd play of the half, they pick off a screen pass and turn it into a pick 6. 14-13 after they miss a XP.

Barkley moves us down the field with ease on our next drive, but he gets hit hard and has to leave the game. 1st play with Scroggins in is a handoff to Baxter who fumbles it. They recover.

Barkley is cleared to return on our next possession.

Baxter with an incredible cut on a counter play to take it in from 29 yards out. 21-13.

We stop them on 4th and 2 on our 36.

Young has dominated whoever is covering him. The big TE is just too quick and too big to be covered! What a weapon. Barkley finds him for a 21 yard TD strike. 28-13.

The drive down inside our 10 quickly, but then our D-line gets pressure and we stop them them on 4th and goal from the 7.

On 3rd and 21, Barkley finds Brice Butler for a 76 yard TD to seal the game. 34-13 after we miss an extra point.

Minnesota with a 4 yard TD pass to make it 34-20 with 1:30 left.

Baxter with a spectacular 36 yard TD run to end the game after they tried an onside kick. 41-20.

They make it 41-27 with 9 seconds left. Our defense is very bad.

So stupid, we try to run it one last time and Barkley fumbles the exchange.. They pick it up and return it for a TD! 41-34. I wonder if that will drop us from our #4 spot in the polls.

Barkley: 19 of 28 for 425 yards with 4 TD's 2 INT's! 1 sack.

Marquis Gray: 28 of 45 for 400 yards with 2 TD's 0 INT, 4 sacks.


Baxter: 14 carries for 120 yards and 2 TD's.

Duane Bennett 23 carries for 65 yards.

True Freshman and freak Zach Young with 6 catches for 126 yards and a TD for us! Nice debut!

Woods with 5 catches for 83 yards and a TD. Butler with 2 catches for 124 yards and 2 TD's!

Prater with 2 catches for 45 yards. Baxter with 2 for 29 yards. Ellison with 2 for 18 yards.

Minnesota's Brandon Green had 9 catches for 109 yards and a TD. 4 receivers with 4 catches.

Freshman DE Shawn Johnson led the team with 8 tackles, 3 for a loss.

Devon Kennard also had 8 tackles, 1 for a loss. Fangupo had 3 sacks! Armond Armstead had 1.
