Citrus Bowl: voices on social media

A roundup of Thursday's chatter and buzz online:

"On the shuttle to the Citrus Bowl. Bus full of Gophers, only two Mizzou fans. #lesssgoo #skolGophs."

@tallisboyd

"Gophers had three timeouts there. Mitch Leidner is angry. I dont blame him. What a waste."

@gilesferrell

"C'mon Jerry - let the kids play! Cannot save those timeouts."

@TArcand

@fury_paguy

"Maxx Williams just won the 54-yard hurdle contest."

@JoeCStrib, Star Tribune beat writer

And from one tight end to the other ...

"Maxx Williams, well done. #Gophers"

"This is more of a Citrus-After-Brushing-Your-Teeth Bowl for the #Gophers."

@BenjaminKruse

"We are getting out-coached."

"Wisconsin wins, Minnesota loses. Usually how it works."

"They get ahead just like against Sconie and then play it cozy. With 3 quarters to play you can't play it safe against anyone. Unleash the Kraken. Forget that playing not to lose."

"Congrats on a good season. Hard loss but the team is getting better and better. Fun ride and I am looking forward to next yr."

OdinSkol, startribune.com comment

"I think 8-5 is the ceiling for this program and coaching staff."

"Minnesota Gophers came up short against Missouri but it was a great year. Congratulations to Coach Kill and the team!"

@TonyDungy

"Thanks everyone for all the support!! These past 4 years have been amazing!! Has truly been an honor to play side by side with my brothers!!"

@DCobb27

"Although we didn't win, I'm still proud to be a GOPHER! Thankful for my MN friends and family. Proud of our SR's! #SkiUMah."

"MN @GopherFootball Coach Jerry Kill & family arrive at Orlando restaurant for post-game meal; patrons sing him the Minnesota Rouser."
