    Re-ranking all 18 Big Ten football helmets from worst to first (16. Minnesota Golden Gophers)

    The "motion" W looks like it was created by a UW undergrad in the early 90's using Clip Art from Microsoft Windows v3.1.

    Hey, I'll tell you what. You can get a good look at a butcher's arse by sticking your head up there. But, wouldn't you rather to take his word for it?

    Great Reusse column on his lifelong fandom of our Gophers!

    My dad was a freshman at the U and went to every home game in the student section. He turns 84 this summer and had to give up his season tickets after COVID. I fear you are correct. :(

    Big Ten gets 4 berths, including 2 regional hosts or first time ever. Thank you Pac12 schools. Still hope their addition will help the entire conference in the long run.

    Losing Rooney stinks. We're already struggling with pitching depth.

    It's baffling how it got approved because if one simply thought about it for more than 30 seconds they would have realized the issues it would cause. The current format has 12 teams and 15 games from Tuesday through Sunday. Here's an alternative that would accomplish the same goal of 12...

    Twins/Vikings/Wild/Wolves Championship appearance drought tracker

    I agree with you and I also hope I'm wrong. Wolves played as solid of defense as they could against OKC in the first half and ANT/Randle were money. But the theme of careless turnovers, poor bench shooting and refs keeping OKC in the game via the charity stripe meant we only led by 4 when we...

    3 Big Ten coaches Badger fans love to hate (1. PJ Fleck)

    If Fleck had the success against Iowa that he's had against Wisconsin, the hate from their fanbase would surpass that of the skunks. But I love that Sconnie hates him.

    How would you grade the Gophers first season under Ty McDevitt?

    That's just not realistic. College baseball is a regional sport and NIL combined with the increase of full scholarships from 11 to 31 (?) means the deck is stacked against us. When the SEC comes calling, it's hard to afford to keep kids home consistently. The standard needs to be upper half...

    How would you grade the Gophers first season under Ty McDevitt?

    I went C. He got an A- for the non conference. There were some quality wins there and taking 2 of 3 at Arizona State is no joke . But conference is a D. Injuries really hurt and he can't be blamed for the lack of depth. But they absolutely should have been better than 16 out of 17

    Case in point. Illinois beat Michigan 6-5 today. Tomorrow Illinois plays UCLA. If UCLA wins, they will clinch the pool with a 1-0 record (Illinois would be 1-1 and Michigan 0-1), making their game against Michigan on Wednesday absolutely meaningless. How could the conference be so stupid to...

    Was reading today that the pool tie-breakers in the Big Ten Tournament (should every team go 1-1) is the higher seed. How dumb. Basically if you are not the highest seed in your pool and you lose 1 game, you are screwed. They should have done "Runs Allowed" or "Run Differential".

    It's really unfortunate at how the season swung once the final weekend of March rolled around. It takes away from the fact that much of February and March had some quality outcomes against really tough competition. Going into that Iowa series the Gophers were viewed as having a legitimate...

    Selvig's injury has just killed us as it shortens our quality arms every weekend by about 7 innings. I'm sure it will change due to the portal and other guys leaving but at this point in time the priority in the offseason needs to be: 1. Adding 3-4 quality arms that you can rely on for the...
