absolutely curb stomp the Nits this fall.
The coverage of PSU is always so fawning. Every analyst acts like James Franklin is on the verge of bringing back the glory days. That Josh Moyer slob on the ESPN blog, literally goes out of his way to pick PSU players EVERY SINGLE TIME they do a list of 'best this' or 'dark-horse that'.
Moyer really irritated me in 2014 when he wrote like 80 articles downplaying the win and portraying it as a 'fluke'.
I mean, a fluke is when you lose on a Hail Mary. Minnesota physically dominated Penn State in that game. The score was never close. The game was never in doubt.
Also, Pete Mortell had arguably his best game as a Gopher.
Now the Limegrover thing is adding juice to the game. Limey has gone out of his way to recruit Minnesota's targets and the state of Minnesota. Don't tell me that's not a tiny bit personal. Limegrover says the right things, but I doubt there's any love lost between Limey and Claeys.
Anyway, we open with PSU to start conference play. They will almost certainly be coming off a loss against Michigan.
Nothing would make me happier than to crush them and watch the hand wringing in State College when they start conference play 0-2.
Also, if Mitch is healthy we should have the QB edge in that game. McSorley looked all right in relief of Hack in the bowl game, but he's barely played and doesn't particularly scare me.
SKI-U-MAH! Go Gophers!
