Now that we’ve reached the midpoint of the season, midterm exams are upon us, and I’ll be handing out grades to each unit on both sides of the ball for the Minnesota Golden Gophers. Here I’ll be covering the offense and in another post I’ll cover the defense and special teams.
Here is where the offense ranks from a statistical standpoint:
S&P+ Offense: 9th (Yes, that means ninth in all of FBS)
Passing Offense: 229.7 YPG (7th B1G, 74th nationally)
Rushing Offense: 186.2 YPG (6th, 46th)
Scoring Offense: 35.
