    We were the team…

    Sure --- just ask Georgia and TCU!!!

    We were the team…

    that may or not be true but I tell you one thing -- we certainly would have done a lot better than 63-7 that's for sure!! The Gophers have now won 6 games in a row. I think that only adds credence to the theory we aren't going to good enough games. Maybe -- just maybe -- the team that got...

    POST GAME THREAD: Sound off!!! Gophers beat Syracuse!

    you are correct!!!! But I seem to remember Mr. Knight using that as well if he got the lead. Basketball was VERY boring back then!! Watching 10 minutes of passing the ball back and forth wasn't too fun to watch!!!!!

    Iowa DB DeJean

    Our mindset on defense is getting much better and it is light years ahead of the Glen Mason days. Unfortunately, our return mindset is to fair catch everything and take it wherever the kick lands. (Maybe a little better the last few games, though!)

    POST GAME THREAD: Sound off!!! Gophers beat Syracuse!

    At no point during that game I thought the Gophers were in trouble and we might lose. It was an ugly game, but I think PJ Fleck made the call to just get out of there with a win and go into his version of Bobby Knight's "four corner stall defense."

    What does "play to win" look like in a game - how is it different than "playing not to lose?"

    This was the best take of all the posts on "playing not to lose." Offensive and defensive play calling is an art form and there needs to be a bit of a gambler in there as you have to know when to hold 'em and know when to fold 'em. The biggest coaching gaffes this staff has made weren't from...

    Irving to the end zone, can’t compete at MN

    Whew -- gotta disagree with you there, Murray. While Ibrahim is certainly a great college back and has done great things for us he does not have the explosive break away speed that Irving has. Irving should go much higher in the NFL draft than Ibrahim and will probably enjoy a much more stellar...

    Bowl take aways

    Daniel "Action" Jackson is definitely a playmaker and deserves to see major action along with Chris Autman-Bell as our top two receivers next year. The new receivers should be fun to watch too! Lett's just get our QB back healthy though, ok??

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS SYRACUSE PINSTRIPE BOWL IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I hope we never play in this bowl game on that field ever again!! ugly game but just glad we won.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS SYRACUSE PINSTRIPE BOWL IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Lett's just hope the ultra conservative play calling at the end of the half doesn't change the entire momentum around. Syracuse just stole that last TD away.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS SYRACUSE PINSTRIPE BOWL IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Absolutelly gutless -- they tried to run out the clock as usual. They just gave them a cheap TD too. That is why you don't just run it up the middle coach!!

    What Effect did NIL have?

    I think NIL now stands for "Now It's Legal!!!!!!"

    Shooter: People who know say Mike Leach had serious interest in the Gophers job after he was fired in 2009.

    I was one that really wanted him and had several disagreements with fellow Gopher Holers. Remember, this was following the disastrous Tim Brewster regime and I felt he would be the spark the Gophers needed.. It would have been risky, and his fights with Dan Barreiro and Patrick Reusse would...

    Michael Brown-Stephens

    I agree we shouldn't be piling onto any of the players or attacking them but one thing is for certain: PJ Fleck was on a major mission to immediately upgrade at WR and I think we would all agree he did just that.
