There were a couple moments in the big 2019 win vs Penn State that equaled the Triplett interception in volume, in my opinion.
The Howden interception in the end zone as well as the Bateman TD catch on the first drive reached that level. I get a little misty-eyed just typing these words.
I think it will be a LOT more important for Wisconsin to win their bye weeks because, well, you know, that might be the only ones left on their schedule.
As for this Fleck comment, it is the kind of stuff that makes me roll my eyes as it relates to the much of the worthless stuff that he says...
One of the best ways you can ensure playing really well against a Minnesota team is to have once played for the Minnesota team you are now playing. The sport or level doesn't seem to matter.
I'm worried about the Gophers ability to stop the Greek Rifle but last year I never would have thought...
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...
The funny thing is I did not specify ANY teams as examples of programs the Gophers have passed, or been passed by. Perhaps Indiana has passed the Gophers (I’d say basically anyone commenting nationally would say that) and in that respect it is part of the reason I asked about it. I’m only...
As I was watching Indiana’s boot crush ever deeper into Illinois’ throat last night, I started to think about starting a post about B1G teams that the Gophers have passed up since Fleck’s arrival, compared to B1G teams that have passed up the Gophers since Fleck’s arrival.
In 2019 I felt...
The Illinois defense has been getting the ball to their offense really quickly. Isn’t that the defensive goal?
Of course that is because of quick Indiana offensive touchdowns but oh well.
Indiana! Blocked punt TD.
So many times big games like this come down to a single possession and when it is all over you can look back on a special teams play that was the difference.
I just noticed Wisconsin still has their “Case IH red zone” (they just mentioned it on the Wisconsin radio broadcast because the BADgers actually got there in garbage time). I guess it was still worth it to Case IH to sponsor Wisconsin’s 2-10 season.
Spin this. Cal preseason bottom ACC. Plenty of B1G games ahead vs teams that have been blowing out everyone. That includes Ex gopher Kaliakmanis and Rutgers in front of 38,000 fans in two weeks.
