What happened to the Gnats? Why did they go from winning 10 last year to being lucky if they win 6 this year?

Haven't watched them but I would venture a guess would be that since Werts was injured in game 1 against LSU and hasn't played since is a major factor.

Their QB being hurt early in the year hurt I'm sure, other than that I'm not sure.

Werts played in the ULL game.

It is a combination of Werts being out, although their backup wasn’t bad, and they aren’t surviving off of that insane turnover margin that they benefitted from.

They benefited from a lot of turnovers last year, so that can be hard to replicate. Also, their losses have come to LSU, Minnesota and ULL, so I wouldn't write them off yet (although they've looked pretty bad in every game but Minnesota, from what I gather).

And Minnesota is not as good as their record suggests. They are a fart away from being 0-4 against not great teams. Once they get to the meat of their conference play their record should self correct.
On a side note I have great distaste for PJ Fleck; comes off as a quintessential douchebag.

I don't disagree with any of that, but still, to have them all but beaten before a classic GS collapse is a pretty solid effort on the road for a Sun Belt team, especially missing their starting QB.
As mediocre as Minnesota looks, they could easily get to 8-0 before they hit the tougher part of their schedule.

So, all of the SBC East teams lost their conference openers except for us. That's awesome...

Most certainly that would have been a good win for the conference but Minnesota is not a good football team this year.

I watched South Ally play Nebraska in the opener and it was a game. I don’t know their story but it doesn’t look good.

236 to 99 total yds. TOP 27-11. Only 3 penalties the whole game. Yet only up 3.
