Joe Nelson reporting yesterday that Hawk and DG not decided if they will return for next year. DTA better get their act together otherwise we will lose 2 if not 3 (christie) of our best players.

This question is a joke, right?

This. Think back to the few good teams we ve had in last 20 yrs and the hyped up teams that didn't pan out. 2016-17 excellent guard play=great record 2002-3, 2019-20, 2005-6: all lots of hype but very poor record due poor guard play. I remember those Rickert yrs. Granted he was part of the...

I agree. There's a fine line between not blitzing/ playing zone and waiting for the QB to mess up vs soft prevent. The NW and ILL fiascos were quite literally the result of lack of aggression.

How is the Sugar bowl #5? That was the second best game of the bowl season. I actually thought it was #1.

It's all going to depend on 2 things: who plays Center and is Tony Nelson or Philip Daniel ready to play RT. If Nelson or Daniel is ready at RT: Ersery - Cooper - McConnell/Johnson - QC - Daniel/Nelson If they aren't ready (which is what I'm assuming will happen) Ersery- Cooper -...

I never want to think about that stadium ever again. House of horrors

Ok. Do you think WI is a top 40 team? If so, IA best them already while rushing for over 200 yards in a very physical game. I don't know what else you want to say.

Nessler is the best....industry standard!

I tend to agree with this. It's possible that Fickell takes Wi to the next level. However, it's possible he brings in a new system and fails miserably. Many Wi Kool aid drinkers can't see this. Implementation of totally new systems have as great of a chance of crashing and burning before...

I think this is great. PJ is reiterating to 18 19 yo kids that that always need to have awareness, understanding, don't get lose your focus. I always forget what I was like at 19 yo...I needed refocusing and reminders alot. He's identifying with the players on their level.

Typical Nebby guy. He sounds like Gopher fans from 2005-2016 saying how WI will take a step back....and they don't and about how NE should have won the last 4 yrs but didn't due to dysfunctional coaching.

I feel like both. Even tho both teams were not playing for anything that yr, I felt like until we beat our rival, we were nothing. I watched that game on the edge of my seat, every second savoring it. Years of torture from relatives and friends disappeared. The fact now that we have a...

Imo....the 2018 is biggest MN win in last 20 yrs. Yes, the 1999 Penn St game put us back in the same realm and the 2019 game gave Fleck some clout. However, 15 yrs of losing to our archrival made us irrelevant. Until we did that, we had nothing to stand on. It's also why flecks inability to...

2 of the most impressive drives in my Gopher Fandom lifetime didn't end in points. 1. Auburn drove mentioned above where we bled the clock to 0:00. 2. WI 2018- we went on iirc a 10 min ish drive that concluded w a missed FG but essentially left WI with 4 minutes to make up 2 scores. I remember...
