Still no reason for the “B” team (or C D E F?) booth crew. It’s not like all of the bowls are on the same day anymore. ESPN could have covered the entire bowl season with their top 4 or 5 crews. But no. Maybe the announcers union makes sure that all of the “talent” gets to work a bowl, no matter...

In answer to the original question: We are weaker than single ply toilet paper.

But I thought teams couldn’t offer NIL…only 3rd party collectives??? 🙄

I feel bad for Indiana. And the others that will lose in the first round of the playoff. No bowl game for you. Yes, you had a shot as one of 12 contenders, but you went on the road to play (in essence) something not much different than a conference championship game. No bag of swag, no battle of...

At the Copa, Copa Cabana… Copa Cole

Watching Illinois at home leading #1 Tennessee. The place is packed and the crowd is going nuts. It makes me sad that all I have to look forward to is an empty gym against the likes of FDU and Morgan State.

This team is good at being cannon fodder for the rest of the conference. Those of you old enough to grow up watching local pro wrestling (was Verne Gagne the least likely-looking world champion ever? Old, balding, paunchy, geez) will get this reference: The Gophers are the Very Capable Kenny Jay...

I’m sure there were a lot of N. Carolina football message board folks that were rolling their eyes at the suggestion of Belichik as head coach, too. Just stop with all of the “why would they ever want to come here” crap. My only concern is with Coyle. He crapped the bed with the Johnson hire and...

Maybe Kekahuna ends up at Eastern Michigan before long.

Yeah, I know. Just not getting too excited until they (1) show up and (2) actually shine as a Gopher. But you make my point for me. Yes, it’s nice to get a highly considered commitment, but it doesn’t always mean much.

This worked so well with Markus Allen…

Iowa State. Did my doctoral work there. Always cheer for them unless they’re playing the Gophers. The Cyclones get most of my attention these days, as the actually have a coach that knows what he’s doing.

The only thing still holding interest for me is to watch and see which B18 teams we’re competitive with so I know who will join the Gophers in being left out of the B18 Tournament. 🙄

Wow. I’ve often been close, and had a couple of 0-fer weeks this season. But I also had a few perfect weekends. It was a weird weekend with some wild endings to games. Somehow I ended up getting them all right. Had the first tiebreaker, too. Thanks for managing it all, #2Gopher. We all...

Ha! No. I enjoy having a reason to watch some games (or at least track the scores) that I wouldn’t otherwise have watched. 🙂

Well, I paid for a month of BigTen+ to see four games. So far I wish I hadn’t. Man, this time is hard to watch. This is Monson’s final year bad.

Good guys win 24-17.

Just sent in my picks by PM. Thanks for another entertaining year. We appreciate your willingness to orchestrate the contest.

Late 4th quarter with a slim lead, with where PSU was on the field, you have to almost plan for the fake punt. Leave your D on the field and make sure they a) call ut off because your are prepared for it or b) you stop them. Who cares that you’re not setting up a return. We fair caught every...

I can’t remember how effective players have been coming back from mono. It seems like it’s something from which it is hard to recover strength and conditioning. We could definitely use a shooter, but I didn’t have much confidence he would be in the rotation before I got a look at the rest of...
