    All Things 2025 Playoffs and Bowl Thread

    Terry Smith at Penn State just seems like a good guy. Glad he is going to get to keep coaching at Penn State under Campbell.

    Pinstripe bowl

    The whole football in baseball stadiums thing has kind of run its course. Makes for a few nice visuals but the fields tend to be not as good and for the fans it isn't great because the field positioning is weird. Not sure what future tie ins look like but would have no problem is the Big Ten...

    Video of Fleck locker room surfing after game

    I mean the easy solution for that is to just not watch the video :). Most teams don't post a lot of locker room video, the Gophers do because this one is fun visually and somewhat unique. Every team celebrates in the locker room after wins because the game is physical and winning is hard...

    Yeah, field looks like crap and it is cold. Playing Clemson would have been fun from the name standpoint but in terms of location, weather and field conditions we definitely got the better location.

    How would you rate Drake Lindsey in his first season as starting QB?

    Your rating seems pretty much in line with how most of the board feels actually. If Drake was a senior his play would be pretty underwhelming but when you factor in his age and experience level he gets a definite bump up. Nothing is ever guaranteed but he has a chance to be a really good...

    Anthony Smith announced he is coming back.

    Revenue sharing is the key here most likely. If Smith thinks he can make good money to stay, develop and improve his draft stock it makes sense to stay in college as opposed to come out early. Won't shock me if we see more underclassmen staying in college if they are not sure fire first round...

    Official 2026 Roster Movement Thread - Who's In and Who's Out?

    No clue who will stay or go but definitely should start to hear a lot in the coming days from guys going into the portal and guys confirming they are coming back. Has been great that a lot of key pieces have already said they are returning.....hopefully that trend continues where the key guys...

    POST GAME THREAD!! Gophers Win Rate Bowl!’

    It is a testament to how good Drake has been at protecting the ball that it was so weird seeing him put multiple balls up for grabs early in the game. Thankfully New Mexico was not able to make the plays to actually secure the turnover. Ugly game but a win is a win. The two TD passes were...

    Was talking specifically about the locker room celebration......it is something fun the team does after a win, they clearly enjoy it. Of things to get upset about or bothered by I really don't know why something like this bugs some people.

    Lindsey to Smith was the second freshman-to-freshman TD pass in OT of a bowl/playoff game in FBS history.The other was from Bama in 2018.

    Interesting stat. Hopefully both our guys end up being as good as those two did :) Lindsey to Smith has potential to be a great combo going forward. Hopefully Jalen Smith really blows up next year and becomes a true #1 WR for us. Kid has shown flashes of being really really good.

    What grade would you give the Gophers in the Rate Bowl win?

    B feels about right. Offense was horrible in the first half with the exception of the TD drive but D played really well all game and without the KO return TD it is highly likely that New Mexico would have been stuck on 6 for the remainder of the game because they could get nothing going on the...

    Official 2026 Roster Movement Thread - Who's In and Who's Out?

    Assume things will really pick up in the next few days. Moved Anthony Smith to the coming back group so seems unlikey we will have anyone leaving early for the draft. Should be interesting to see how it all shakes out.

    What grade would you give the Gophers 2025 season?

    This poll needs the +/- because nearly all the grades will probably be either a B or C so 3 of the choices are likely to see very little action. For me this would be a B-, winning conference record, beat Wisconsin, young first year starter at QB. Lots of areas for improvement and some...
