Like last year, it will depend on how we do in the close games. We managed to win a lot of one-score games last year with clutch plays on both offense and defense. Hard to get a read right now.
 

Hoping for 5 or 6 B1G wins, fun match-up in a bowl game with a happy ending. So that could be 7-8 wins with a chance to win a bowl game too.

Win at least one trophy game and I would call that a pretty nice season!

Beat that team from Jersey, Gopher!

That would make the season enjoyable for all of us
 



My preseason prognostication was 8-4 but I was secretly hoping for a 2019 style season where things go right for a 9-10 win season.

All that assumed a relatively easy win at Cal. Now more of those 50/50 games or even 60/40 games look like losses to me.

You should never overreact to a single bad loss. But that is YOU. I am different, and special. This Cal loss has me reacting to lower my expectations from 8 wins to 6 - and another moral victory bowl in a place like Detroit, if the Gophers qualify for a bowl at all.
That, and aside from NW and Purdue, the other B1G teams we play have improved.
Edit: And Wisconsin...they suck balls.
 


This is simply not accurate
The gophers played man to man off and on all night. They just didn’t play it very well.
I'm surprised by this because it looked like the secondary was spaced out and the Cal QB was throwing to receivers who often didn't have a Gopher dback within 5 feet. It was the worst pass defense I have seen in the Fleck and Kill era.
