Gophers football: Offense takes notes from brutal game film

With the entire Gophers offense surrounding him, coach Jerry Kill pushed rewind on the remote control again and again and again.

In the team meeting room Sunday, Kill and his players went through the painstaking task of breaking down each player's work on every play in last week's unsightly 27-0 loss to Northwestern.

It's routine for each position group to dissect film, but's rare for an entire unit to do it together. The group session took a lot longer than usual and kept the Gophers (3-2, 0-1 Big Ten) from practicing Sunday, their first day of prep for Saturday's game against Purdue (1-4, 0-1).
