    When you say "keep," do you mean scramble on a pass play?

    Bobby Petrino hired as Arkansas OC, could be bad news for Lindsey commit

    They send their head coach and OC a few days before signing day, and it's a "mutual" decision for him not to sign with Arkansas? OK, sure.

    Quarterbacks in the Transfer Portal

    They didn't get to where they are by lighting money on fire.

    Alex Kaliakmanis: Trying very hard not to comment on a program that our family decided to cut ties with.

    I can explain it very easily - virtually every time we run the run-pass option (where your two options are to hand it to the RB or pass), thousands of people at the game, and obviously dozens of posters on this forum, instead think we're running a read option (where your two options are to hand...

    Did others have issues with getting into stadium again yesterday?

    It was our own fault for not getting moving and leaving home sooner, but nonetheless - we joined the line at 2:18 and had our tickets scanned at about 2:50, so a half-hour of standing in line, which is ridiculous. This was at Gate A; we customarily use Gate E, but that line was longer still.

    New Marcus' article - get past rebuilding stage

    Wait, you think Fritz Crisler was fired from Minnesota? That's funny - I needed the laugh today.

    Iowa fan appeals “fair catch” to World Series tv viewers

    Is she a looker? I can't imagine she's overly attractive if she'd settle for marrying a guy who uses a capital "R" at the end of a word.

    Brevyn Spann-Ford

    Well, not exactly. He profiles very well athletically - runs fast, jumps high, has prototype size, and so on. The fact that he is so athletic is why he is often in position to positively impact the game. The problem is that he doesn't execute when called upon to do so and that's because he is...

    invalid fair catch signal

    Fuck off, tool. Enjoy your few remaining posts before you're permanently banned. "I used to return punts at the D1 level." Too funny, thanks for that - I needed the laugh.

    If the gophs beat Purdue, MSU, and Illinois

    The cool thing about being fans, and not players or coaches on the team, is that we can look ahead, speculate, analyze, criticize, and it doesn't make a single bit of difference in the outcomes on the field. I can right now assume that we'll win out, dream of making it to the Big Ten...

    CBS: Big Ten football grades - midseason report (Minnesota: D-)

    You have wisconsin as a probable win, and Purdue as a possible win? Huh? Using Sagarin we'd right now be a 9 or 10 point home underdog to Becky and a 2 or 3 point underdog at Purdue.

    Tanner Morgan signed by the Vikings

    Ah, no. Practice squad QBs who suit up the full season are paid ~$200K. The minimum salary for a player on the 53-man roster is $750K for rookies and $870K for veterans. The backup QB for the Vikings, Nick Mullens, is being paid $2.1M this season. Call me crazy, but I find the job paying 10x...

    2 Keys to Win v Michigan

    If the objective is to win the game, you're right, there is no point in showing up. If you feel differently, I will wager any amount you wish on this game straight up. Let me know if you're interested and name your price.

    2 Keys to Win v Michigan

    I have never been more sure of anything in my life than the fact that we will lose this game, and lose big. This Michigan squad is the best team we've played in many years, likely at least since 2014 OSU, and possibly even longer than that. The current spreads I've seen of -19.5 or -20 are...

    What is the number one change you'd make to the cuurrent program?

    Yes, the pass play was open for a TD if we had Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, or even Drake Maye holding the ball for us. Instead, we had Cole Kramer. I can rip the play call because you tailor your scheme and play calls to your personnel, not the other way around.

    Greg Johnson became the first true freshman O-lineman to play for Minnesota since Daniel Faalele in 2018

    This is not correct. Hell, Ersery started as a true freshman at RT against Nebraska in 2020, and played pretty much the whole game as I recall. Two true freshman OL played in 2019 as well - Guedet against Rutgers and Cooper against Maryland.

    Deep Dive of Redzone Playcalling against EMU

    In this case, it isn't on Kramer. He should not have had the option to throw, particularly considering that we were marching to potentially tie the game, our running game was carving them up, and it seemed likely that AK would be back on the field in short order. With where we were on the field...
