This is lowballing the Gophers. Most of the computer models put the Gophers between 25-30. ESPN FPI, SP+, TeamRankings, Sagarin, Massey all put the Gophers in that range.

"favorite loss" is a tough topic, but at least that Michigan game involved a good Gopher performance, honoring Jerry Kill, great weather, some rare passing success in that era, and the fun of Halloween But yeah, it was brutal to watch the end.

Among games I have been to at the Bank, the Halloween loss to Michigan in 2015 stands out. That was the first game after Jerry Kill's midseason retirement where Mitch Leidner somehow threw for over 300 yards against a stout Michigan defense, but came up one yard short on a long bomb to Drew...

How does a Big Ten team have guys who shoot 36% and 37% from the line in their rotation? 5th and 6th graders shoot free throws better

I turned this game on up 11, Gophers shooting 2, 2:30 to play, ESPN said 98.4% to win. Why did I have a sinking feeling I was tuning in for something like this?

A 37% free throw shooter on the floor in this situation is coaching malpractice

If Max gets to be on a team and get paid and gets 15-20 passing attempts he immediately becomes the starting QB on the Gophers all-time NFL team.

Developing trend: the Midwest and West are rising while the South is falling. In the NIL era, this is a predictable outcome of the Midwest and West being generally wealthier than the South.

If you think about it, firing a coach solely for losing a rivalry game gives your rival a lot of power. It's like saying the Michigan game means more than all the others on the schedule to the extent you would fire a guy who was 47-1 in the other Big Ten games. It's like firing Fleck after...

It would be hilarious if Ohio State still fired Day for losing to Michigan

Also consider that 2 TD and 2 conversions is a tie and overtime, and a FG and 2 TD is a win Figure OT is 50/50 and that changes the math

It was 4th and goal from the 9. Yes, they are down 2 scores but the odds of making both 2 pt conversions is about 20-25%. So a FG removes that from the equation, and they hoped to get 2 more possessions and 2 more TD. With 9:30 left and all their timeouts and the 2 minute warning it's...

The one thing that is objectively harder about college football than the NFL is a short field goal from a hashmark.

There was a time when more Gophers had won the WWE championship than the Super Bowl as a player (seriously) but that's improved with more Gophers in the league and on good teams.

Thanks Rashod for cashing my prop bet early! I had him to score a TD tonight at +180 Should have bet on him to score the first one.

This is what ChatGPT gave me. Surprisingly funny in spite of some typical factual errors. Breaking News: Gopher Lineman Aireontae Ersery Shocks the World by Drafting Brownies with the 2nd Overall Pick in 2025 NFL Draft April 27, 2025 — Kansas City, MO In a move that left analysts, fans, and...

Whether you agree or disagree with this, it's great news for the Gophers There's billionaires out there who made more money in the time I'm typing this than the entire Gopher NIL budget for 2024. The college football future belongs to the programs who have the hearts and wallets of these...

I like how there's a huge Judgement Free Zone sign on the scoreboard above the court

this is not a good time to be 344th in the nation in free throw shooting

Instant replay has made the already slow last 2 minutes of a basketball game intolerable
