Never been a three loss national champion. If they keep expanding the playoff there will be a day a three loss team makes a run and maybe wins it. Then the game will have a crappy crowned champion and not a season long excellence team. Won’t that be a proud moment for the game? The idea a...

Mediocre

I am still a little surprised that Lindenberg was 1st team all big10. Clearly very important cog on the Gopher defense but always thought there was one more level we thought we would see from him.

2024: 12th in conference 2023: 8th in conference 2022: 13th in conference 2021: 13th in conference I call that a below average career.

Seldom seemed even average. Gophers’ lost Iowa games may have been because of the difference in punters. Need 40 yards to pin them at the 5, Crawford would get you 35 yards. Need 55 yards to flip the field, Crawford would get you 35 yards. Only long punts were lucky rolls.

Michigan’s basically used two running backs this season and both are seniors. Why does a ‘4 star’ leave now? Michigan has hundreds of carries up for grabs.

How about a pledge program based on results? I donate $XX to Dinkytown Athletics if the Gophers win 10 games, maybe $XX for each trophy won, then $XXX for Big10 title and $xxxx for National Championship. Deliver results, get paid. Go to the Rate Bowl, here is a set of steak knives.

Is Duke’s Mayo a good lubricant? Asking for a friend.

Um, say what? You need a new tour book. Not to mention a bowl game with zero chance of an ice storm.

Please not the No Rate Bowl. Gophers have been there the most of any team. That would be so Gophers like - because of their loss to Rutgers they end up in a crappy baseball stadium.

My top five spots go to Notre Dame, Notre Dame, Notre Dame, Notre Dame, and Notre Dame. I’d kiss a Hawkeye before I ever invite ND to the Big10.

What Go4 writes is sound. Only way this year could be upgraded to B + is if they beat a perceived strong opponent such as Clemson (sorry Syracuse or BC).

Where do Badger fans want to see the Gophers play in a bowl game? Should be fun them not having to worry about losing a bowl game and getting to watch IL, IA, NE, and MN over the holidays.

Iowa laid a big fat goose egg in last year’s Citrus Bowl and that game last night against Nebby was about as sexy as Jocelyn Wildenstein is today. How could any bowl want that - aren’t the TV eyes as important as the traveling fan base? Who other than Ioweigens or those who HATE Iowa would...

Did PJ’s agent start this tread? Like threatening for more nil.

Anybody watch the second half of the Iowa game, remember that passing team USC ran over and through the MN d-line? NC found soft spots , too. There is room to improve. And Lindenberg, his ball pursuit is good, but he is not a thumper and loses one on ones with strong running backs. He...

Is it players or the coaching?

Offensive line is the Achilles’ heel. That is supposed to be the strength of an upper Midwest Big Ten team.

Waste of a conference game having to play Rutgers. Give me Nebraska, Purdue, Indiana, Michigan St, or Northwestern.

I enjoyed the charm of bowl games and would gladly take an old Rose Bowl experience over any playoff. BCS fed the destruction of Bowl games, this broader playoff may advance that. I think co-National champions are cool and even provides endless sports talk show fodder to engage over for...
