Ooof yes great point…I definitely forgot that and was frustrated by it last night. Just gotta hope it’s one of those early season things and not the D being too slow or tentative. Obviously Cal has way more dynamic athletes than Buffalo or NW St.

Disappointing loss that was there for the taking. No two ways about that. Not likely to be a “special” season for MN, but I still think it’s a 7 or 8 win team — and many people predicted and would’ve been OK with that outcome before the season given the amount of talent lost to the NFL and...

Agree 18 is tough for scheduling. I’m guessing they’ll use a “pods” scenario once they get to 20+ and still put the top 2 teams in CCG. Everyone would play all the teams in their pod and one other, plus 1 or 2 more conf games. I’d actually love an unscheduled opponent the last week of the...

Yup, same line on Draftkings with an O/U of 44.5. So roughly 24 - 21 type game. 68% of ML bets on MN, but 78% of spread bets on Cal. 83% of O/U bets on the under so that may have moved already from a higher number.

Thank you for posting this! I watched it live yesterday and it was probably the weirdest play I’ve ever seen in my life. The refs threw a flag for “illegal kicking” (which I don’t think I’ve ever seen — and couldn’t explain), but the receiving team was able to decline that because they returned...

IMO, Morgan is WAAAAY better than Gardner was last week…and many other color commentators I’ve heard in recent years.

Minnesota Michigan Iowa State NC State

For the first game of the season (and with a new starter at EVERY position), I thought the OL played very well. I’d go solid B. I noticed them picking up multiple complex twists/stunts (unlike early in past seasons), and Lindsey was frequently getting to his 3rd or 4th read (also impressive...

Buffalo, Miami OH, and Ohio are pretty much the consensus top 3 picks in the MAC. Ohio put up 31 on Rutgers and lost by 3. Miami was down 3-0 at half and 10-0 after 3 quarters to Wisconsin, but they did get statistically battered. MN outgained Buffalo by about 300 yards and about 20 more...

Yup. It’s unfortunate they’re only up 7, but they’re obviously dominating the game in every facet. KEY errors though. Two bad drops, the failed 4th down with a foot to go, the fluke INT. One lackluster drive by the D where Buffalo schemed a couple easy throws and popped a run. I predict a 27 -...

Get Perich in there

Dude they need to institute the NFL replay system in college. I’m all for getting it right, but the number of stoppages is just maddening. We’re an hour 20 into this game and only halfway through the 2nd quarter.

Yeah it’s looking like a 21 - 0, 24 - 3 type game. Which would be fine by me.
