Just a teaser on the breakdown.....
Minnesota has struggled mightily in the passing game, the running game has been much better, but in the 4th quarter of the game this weekend vs Northwestern, they lost their all-world freshman running back Darius Taylor and he did not return for the game for the rest of the 4th quarter or overtime. Not sure what his status is this week.
This will be a battle of a team that has given up a total of 5 total sacks in 4 games vs a team that has recorded 18 sacks in 4 games. It will be our athleticism on the DL vs their straight-out size and strength on the OL. Their starting OL is an average of 6'6 319 lbs. with the smallest guy being 6'5 300 and their largest being 6'7 330. They don't have an OL'man that is under 6'5.
