Oklahoma State wanted to do it. They wanted to have a QR code on the back of their helmet, but the NCAA decided they would put their foot down on this. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/41070382/ncaa-bars-oklahoma-state-placing-nil-linked-qr-codes-helmets

Sounds ridiculous but no different than what we do. I would much rather have my mandatory donation go towards NIL than whatever scholarship program it goes towards. It is hard being a fan. In my entertainment budget I have Gopher tickets plus a mandatory donation. Add in a few 100 dollars for...

That may be accurate on the season as a whole but I really like the way the season is progressing. Offense has been playing offensively vs. defensively. How different would the season feel if we make 1 of the 2 field goals vs. North Carolina? 3-0 sounds a lot better than 2-1.

Every time he is on the field it just feels like a big play is about to happen. Watched him play safety and ran about 40 yards across the field to stop a Nevada receiver for a short gain on a 3rd down yesterday. Quickly becoming my favorite Gopher!

I hate the Packers more than Iowa and Wisconsin combined. I can’t stand Iowa. Seems like their traveling fans are the worst… interestingly enough I have had great experiences in Iowa City.

Teams I hate: 1. Green Bay Packers Wide Gap 2. Alabama and any overhyped SEC team 3. Iowa 4. Wisconsin

That is exactly what I was thinking as well. Transportation costs are through the roof - especially when you have to split teams/programs to get the games in.

Not sure if transportation is being used as an excuse to justify the move, but I'd be willing bet that transportation costs is the most expensive part of any athletic budget in the metro area.

Think of all the knee injuries and football... they are almost all ACL, MCL, PCL, Knee Dislocation, Miniscus, etc. A knee pad isn't going to do a single thing regarding those injuries.

Potentially. Blitzing is a gamble. When you blitz you have to do 1 of 2 things... get the sack or alter/rush the pass. When blitzing you are down a man in coverage so if you don't do 1 of 2 things you are essentially playing 11 vs 10. Part of the missed tackle issue (not 22 missed tackles) was...

Would love to know the history of our season ticket holders. Curious what it was in the dome vs. the Bank, how the scholarship donation affected season ticket holders, etc

I was talking to my dad after the game and I told him I don't know how on 3rd and goal you don't take a shot to the end zone. It doesn't have to be a pass... but if you are 3rd and +5... there aren't a lot of run plays that can get you a touchdown. Our kicker is good - he proved that last...

Maybe our offense would be better if he treated it like backyard football. I wish I would take an account of how many deep passes we throw. I know we threw one on Thursday night and it was a pass interference and we got a free 15 yards. I used to be an offensive coordinator for a local high...

Absolutely agree with you on both of the excuses for missed tackles and I agree with you that there will probably be some more missed tackles than the years past. Our defense was much more aggressive. That is not a knock on Rossi's defenses, just a different approach. What will make or break our...

I was impressed with our defense. We had too many missed tackles but I am hopeful this will be cleared up with more game experience. I told my season ticket group this... our offense is so bad that any time our defense makes a mistake it is magnified.

I am convinced his biggest opponent is our offensive coaching staff.

Brosmer should be just as efficient as he was that game. That doesn't mean the same stat line but just as efficient. In theory he has a better supporting cast and Rhode Island is a far more inferior to the Gophers than they were to New Hampshire. I would be happy with something like 17 of 25...

I might be just too stubborn but I have refused to purchase Peacock. It isn't the price because I think it is pretty cheap but I will not purchase it.

I have zero trust in anything Fleck says regarding injuries. He could be really close or really close to maybe playing in the Wisconsin game. How long was Cody Lindenberg really close to playing?

I definitely mistyped. More a conversation in my head of "Why the hell did they put this guy in?" or "Come on Ben, take out player xyz." To answer your question, I do cheer for every Gopher but some I just have far less confidence in. haha.
