    They've been on quite the ride this year for sure, reminds me a bit of the 2007 Kansas team, another basketball school that went on a tear in football. Did some digging and looked at P5 programs that had breakout seasons since 2000, meaning they won at least 11 games, except for 2020 in Iowa...

    Post Game Thread: Gophers Lose Disappointing Game at Rutgers

    So very frustrating to lose a perfectly winnable game. The fact that the offense could do absolutely nothing in the second half was maddening. Ugh.

    Both writers at Athlon Sports are picking Minnesota to win Josh Skluzacek has Minnesota winning 24-17 Minnesota’s defense is strong and the offense has been clicking.

    The Pioneer Press has Minnesota winning 28-20 Minnesota Offense Vs.

    Two of three writers at NJ.com have Minnesota winning Steve Politi is taking Rutgers, 27-23 I subscribe to the theory that teams will eventually return to the mean, and no matter what the Big Ten standings say, I don’t think Minnesota is nearly as good as its 6-3 record.

    Rutgers Greg Schiano press conference ahead of Minnesota.

    I haven't watched yet, but if I had to guess: "Yeah, you know, they're a really tough team and have found a way to win four in a row. That's not easy, especially in this conference. Their defense is really tough as expected under Fleck and their quarterback Max Brosmer has looked really...

    Yeah I think at this point, at least at the D2 level, most programs are fine in terms of staying at the university. Mary, Minot and recently Southwest Minnesota State have been really struggling on the field, but I think that has more to do with the level of competition with the rest of the...
