Zach ShawHOST
And then with the screens and some of the short yardage pass plays, they love getting yards after the catch, too.
Zach ShawHOST
Like Javon Tracy is one of the better receivers in the Big Ten at forcing missed tackles and then getting extra post-catch yards.
Zach ShawHOST
And I got to say, Michigan didn't do super well here on that front.
Zach ShawHOST
In terms of yards after contact, they were great at meeting the backs at the line, but I actually felt like Minnesota's running backs, they broke seven tackles, and of their 126 rushing yards, 118 of them came after contact, according to Pro Football Focus.
Matt BrueningHOST
Good thing I guess we didn't put this live now because some of these names I clearly did not translate over correctly.
Matt BrueningHOST
Williams at Jacksonville State, Omari Hatcher, Jeremiah Smith, Javon Tracy, Gavin Freeman, who might be someone to pay attention to.
Matt BrueningHOST
He was the guy for Baylor.
Matt BrueningHOST
Jalen Hampton at Charlotte, RJ Vick, Colorado State.
Ryan BurnsHOST
Two plays later, you're in the end zone.
Ryan BurnsHOST
Like, Noah Jennings and Javon Tracy continue to be the passing game equivalent of Andrew Marsh and JJ Buchanan, and I don't know where they would be without Noah Jennings.
Ryan BurnsHOST
He now leads them through five games in receiving yards.
Ryan BurnsHOST
He can do it on the outside.
6 MINS LATER
Ryan BurnsHOST
They're all transfers, man.
Ryan BurnsHOST
It's 'cause they also didn't recruit well for many years at running back and at receiver from 2022 to 2024.
Ryan BurnsHOST
That's why you're relying on Noah Jennings, Javon Tracy, TJ Thomas.
Ryan BurnsHOST
So it is what it is on offense at times, and I feel like people forget that because you just wanna hate on certain things.
Ross BrendelHOST
If you can just consistently get three to five yards on the ground, this offense can really cook and move up and down the field with what they have.
Ross BrendelHOST
Javon Tracy.
Ross BrendelHOST
Uh, by the way, Noah Jennings continues to be-
Manny HillHOST
Ugh
Matt BrueningHOST
correctly.
Matt BrueningHOST
Williams at Jacksonville State, Omari Hatcher, Jeremiah Smith, Javon Tracy, Gavin Freeman, who might be someone to pay attention to.
Matt BrueningHOST
He was the guy for Baylor.
Matt BrueningHOST
Jalen Hampton at Charlotte, RJ Vick, Colorado State.
Alex DrainPANELIST
So that's a guy they've been throwing to.
Alex DrainPANELIST
And then Tracy, Javon Tracy, who was, uh, started his career at Miami of Ohio, he's the s- the screen guy.
Alex DrainPANELIST
And then Jalen Smith is the other outside receiver.
Alex DrainPANELIST
He's really just a guy.
26 MINS LATER
Seth FisherPANELIST
I did wanna get into, um, Minnesota special teams 'cause-
Brian CookHOST
All right
Seth FisherPANELIST
... uh, Javon Tracy is maybe the best punt returner in the country right now.
Seth FisherPANELIST
He's got two, uh, touchdowns already.
Zach ShawHOST
Yeah, I think Minnesota, I think the biggest key is just minimizing those yards after the catch opportunities.
Zach ShawHOST
I think like a Javon Tracy, Noah Jennings.
Zach ShawHOST
I mean, these are guys who are, especially Tracy, he's averaging over seven yards after the catch per reception.
Zach ShawHOST
So he's a big part of that.
Zach ShawHOST
I was looking up the penalties for the season.
Zach ShawHOST
I feel like that might have been a piece of it.
Zach ShawHOST
But to your point, real quick, Javon Tracy already has two punt return touchdowns.
Zach ShawHOST
He's one of the better punt return guys in the country.
Ryan BurnsGUEST
It had been a very long time, and it had been very anemic, not explosive.
Ryan BurnsGUEST
And now Javon Tracy should have three, and he's probably going to be the punt returner of the year if this keeps up.
Ryan BurnsGUEST
So that is where you actually have to have special teams Washington was scared to kick to both the kick returner, who's a true freshman by the name of Quade Hendricks, or Javon Tracy.
Ryan BurnsGUEST
Plus, you've got a kicker who just made a 50-yard field goal last week.
Ryan BurnsGUEST
Minnesota's now made more 40-plus-yard field goals in three games of Luke Driswicki than they made all of last season.
Ryan BurnsGUEST
He's their best outside receiver.
Ryan BurnsGUEST
Javon Tracy is one of the best return men in the Big Ten.
Ryan BurnsGUEST
Should have three return touchdowns already if he doesn't have his controller disconnect within the 10 and he drifts out of bounds just forgetting where he was against Akron.
Ryan BurnsGUEST
And then they do have an ancillary receiver by the name of Jalen Smith, but a lot of it's going to come down to Tracy and Jennings.
Ryan BurnsHOST
Is it for the Minnesota fans who have told me for four years Darius Taylor, even going back to high school, was going to be a Michigan Wolverine? Is it the Michigan fans who thought Darius Taylor was gonna be a part of their team for the last four years? Or is it just for Darius Taylor himself because he's from Walled Lake Western, and this game just means a lot to him? Because while they do count all the same, Michigan is the school that, it's his in-state school.
Ryan BurnsHOST
And so I do wonder, as Minnesota tries to figure out how to run the football at all in this one, especially with the offensive line injuries that they have, how are they able to sustain drives? Now, it would also be great if Daniel DePrato's return units of Quade Hendricks and Javon Tracy can flip field position and make things a little bit easier for the Gophers.
Ryan BurnsHOST
But I will also say this, Minnesota cannot have three drives stall out between the Michigan 41 and 43 like they did last week at Washington.
Ryan BurnsHOST
You have to get as many points as you possibly can against this Michigan defense because Danny Collins, I wouldn't say they have it easy on the other side of the ball, and we'll get to that here in a second, but this is going to be a very, very difficult test for Greg Harbo, Drake Lindsey, and everybody involved because they are so athletically gifted, which then I can get into, uh, yeah, they're also spending probably twice on their roster what Minnesota is.
30 MINS LATER
Ryan BurnsHOST
As we sit here in time, I probably have this game 23 to 16 Michigan.
Ryan BurnsHOST
I just don't know that Minnesota's offensive line and the current state that they're in is going to be able to protect Drake Lindsey enough to sustain drives that end in touchdowns.
Ryan BurnsHOST
Now, I will tell you if Javon Tracy and Noah Jennings want to have their best games as Golden Gophers, this would be a hell of a time to do it.
Luke BuerHOST
Yeah.
