It's because they are unprepared. They're not game planning to beat Minnesota. They're interested in getting looks at certain players who normally would not see the field. who would be playing a different position, etc vs Minnesota if this was a real game.I agree to an extent, I am just tired of the 1st or 1st and 2nd or even sometimes 1st, 2nd and 3rd games of the season we just totally shirt the bed for some weird reason because we look unprepared.
