    Big Ten grades for 2025 season: Penn State gets 'F-' for collapse, Indiana earns 'A+' as conference champion

    Say the team overachieved, that's fine. I'll grant you that the team had problems. They definitely lacked offensive options and the O-line was a shambles. And the defense didn't live up to its talent level. But those problems are all a result of 1. what parts the coaching staff brought in 2...

    Big Ten grades for 2025 season: Penn State gets 'F-' for collapse, Indiana earns 'A+' as conference champion

    I acknowledge that, but still, they are what they are. And they were horrid this year.

    Big Ten grades for 2025 season: Penn State gets 'F-' for collapse, Indiana earns 'A+' as conference champion

    I see your point, but I can't fully agree with it. Wisconsin was a decisive win, but even with a couple of upset wins, they came in 2-6 in conference. A decisive win was to be expected.

    Big Ten grades for 2025 season: Penn State gets 'F-' for collapse, Indiana earns 'A+' as conference champion

    Whoever wrote that blurb didn't even look at the Gophers' season. There was one game all season to be really proud of (Nebraska) and they got bombed each time they played a really good team. To earn a B they would have had to win nine games. Winning seven in the fashion they did is a D at best.

    It’s Official; Gophers play New Mexico in Rate Bowl

    I'm not nervous. It's always a possibility. But this game is all we have left this year, and Fleck has shown an ability to prepare the team for bowl games.

    So many sources trying to identify the worst stat line or worst QB performance ever. I seem to remember Vikings backup Steve Bono once going 1/10 for 5 yards. And then Bono stayed in the league for about fifteen years and was even KC's starter for a stretch.

    The Death of Gopher Basketball

    I was surprised, looking at the box score afterwards, to see the lack of counting stats for Grove. He was a fireball during his 8 minutes on the floor, playing hard and scrappy, hustling, and willing to get physical with bigger guys. I hope he develops.

    The Death of Gopher Basketball

    Coach Niko isn't the guy I would have chosen, but it's hard to criticize after a game like tonight's! I'm thinking a couple of games at Williams this year looks like fun.

    Brosmer is responsible for the throws. He isn't responsible for the drops, the fumbles, the lack of protection, or the half-hearted effort.

    Describe the Gophers win over wisconsin in 1 sentence

    The only flaw in today's win is that it should have been a shutout.

    What grade do you give the Gophers in the rivalry win over wisconsin?

    An esthetically pleasing win over a bad rival. If there was a B+ option I would have used it.

    Who is your Gophers MVP in the win over wisconsin?

    Nestor reminds me Terrell Buckley. Remember the Crouton? A good player who made some big plays, but got burned more often than you'd expect. And in the end, a lot of people remember the burns instead of the big plays.

    Fleck: ‘We’re a 6-5 football team, this isn’t 2-10’

    We've enjoyed three decisive wins this season, against Buffalo, Northwestern State, and Nebraska. Then there are three skin-of-your-teeth victories over Rutgers, Michigan State and Purdue. Change one important play in each of those games and you're 3-9. At least the Northwestern game was a...
