Gophers defense playing very well..

That's right, you probably weren't around in the 70's and 80's when the Pack couldn't buy a game?? ;-)

Oh I was around for the 80s. I remember how dominant the Vikings were until they got to the playoffs.

LOL, for sure. 4 Super Bowls and a shit load of Championship games that they should have won.
You got me there fucker.

tbh, I am actually concerned about the Badgers' attrition at DE. And Ball's body still needs some time I think. But everything else is starting to gel back together.

 

[JohnRandle]

How about QB? Will he be back?
Did Ball have a concussion?

I better get some sleep Bucky,
Plan on tailgating by 8:30am before the Vikes beat up the 49ers. ;-)

I think Stave is probably the permanent starter. IMO his awareness is about 20 percentage points higher than O'Brien's, so no I don't think O'Brien will be back in. I'd even say that Phillips might be the unofficial backup at this point. O'Brien stares down his receivers, and various other things.

I don't think Ball has a readable concussion, but I wouldn't be surprised if he suits up for Nebraska and barely sees action. That was a pretty hard, blindsided shot he took to the head. And personally, I just don't think you can come back from being beat unconscious by 5 guys this fast. His body might be catching up to where it would normally be by this point in the season, but I just think he didn't need that headshot today. Worried about him.

Good luck tomorrow Vikes, kinda hope you lose obviously.
