Yes, good point. Chicago would have been a B1G game. Nebraska was easily the most-played non-conference rival and Washington (17 games) was up there, too. Both now Big Ten teams.

According to Gopher sports webpage, we've actually played Iowa State 26 times with a 22-3-1 record. I realize you meant P4 opponents here. But for the heck of it I spent wasted time looking through the opponents. (Just for something interesting to see, not to suggest possible future...

Yeah, if you're talking a one-off, or a single home-and-home over the course of a decade, it could work. I was thinking you were saying annual. Personally, I'd rather hop on a jet and go watch us play someone other than Iowa State in some other part of the country. Definitely have no interest...

Definitely would have been a targeting and ejection in today's game.

Every P4 team needs 7 home games to make the revenue work. Iowa State cannot get to seven home games every year if they play Iowa and Minnesota in the same years. So, the payola will never be right. So, if Minnesota is to play Iowa State, then it would have to be in cooperation with Iowa...

And Bellarmine won the game in 2022.

Rumor is the Strib is putting more of their eggs in the high school sports/recruiting news basket and Marcus is going to be a lead writer/contributor on that front. Strib has also partnered with a production company that does a lot of high school sports live streaming. Going to try to compete...

No, that's not what I said. Not once. I said they threw more passes in that game than most other games in the Iowa series because they were behind. Go read it again. I NEVER said anything other than that. In other words, had they been ahead by 17 points, they certainly weren't passing 61%...

I literally haven't claimed anything to make up. I'm using your facts that you posted. Are you trying to contradict your facts? Are you suggesting that Minnesota threw the ball less in the 2019 game than most other Iowa games during PJ's time? I'm saying they passed more, your numbers suggest...

I'm not talking about within one game. Never have been. I'm talking about the entire series against Iowa during PJ's time here. Your research literally backs what I'm saying. My goodness. You said: "The gophers threw the ball 36 times not counting sacks in 2019 vs 23 non sack runs" That...

One more time, I'm not talking about running more than passing or passing more later in the game. Never said that. Read this again. I was talking about the fact they passed the ball more in those two Iowa games (as you pointed out in the research) than they had in most of the other Iowa...

Ok. I'm not arguing with you. You didn't read what I said. You are being obtuse and in a different universe. I'm not talking about passing more than running. I'm talking about passing more than they usually did against Iowa (as your research backs up, "dude"). And, I am talking about the...

Or, hear me out....maybe, just maybe, the freshman QB in 2021 gets RPO chance and finds a guy like say, oh, Lemeke Brockington, for a 44-yard touchdown and we beat the hated Hawkeyes. No one seemed to complain when he did that in Madison. No was was saying we should run more in that game...

First of all, obviously I know you can find documentation and obviously I didn't intentionally lie. For clarification: I said: "in 2019 we were down 20-3 early 2nd quarter so there were more passes. Passing brought us back to almost win the game. In 2020, we were down 14-0 at half, so more...

Intentionally lying. I had no idea you would be able to find documentation of the game. Damn.
