Gophers put up a fight in loss to USC

Going in to the game on Saturday, I admit I did not think the Gophers would put up much of a fight against the USC Trojans.  As the first couple drives finished with several USC scores, I pretty much accepted that it would only get worse the longer I watched.  As the second half came along and the Gophers started making some moves, I was beside myself with shock and disbelief.  Towards the end, I felt what I hadn’t felt since the Iowa game last year.  The feeling that we might actually be able to do this!  In the end, the Gophers did fall short losing to USC 19-17 but as a fan, I left with a good feeling.  A feeling that Jerry Kill and the Gophers might actually surprise some people this year and take the first step in reviving the program.
