Great, so billionaire’s wife is annoyed that Michigan is losing again so they buy a HS QB for $12 million. Problem is not that there aren’t plenty of rich Minnesota alums. Since there’s not been a history to create die hard fans, they’re not going to just throw $10 million to recruit some kid to...

Where did you get 12th? I see him at 9th according to https://sportsdata.usatoday.com/ncaa/salaries/football/coach, so right in the middle. Thats about where the Gophers have averaged, middle of the pack. Riley, Fickell and Smith of MSU were definitely overpaid.

They are seriously lacking in depth. Fickell is going to have to hit a home run on an OC (or at least a double) and fire up their NIL base to get more and better transfers than he did this past year, in order to restore Wisconsin to respectability. I don’t know how they shut down and almost...

No it’s not, because it’s not objectively obvious, just subjectively to you. PSU was losing for a majority of the game against BGSU, didn’t exactly dominate or light up the scoreboard on pretty bad UCLA and Wisconsin teams, had to beat a below average USC at the last second, and an “average”...

Right, so he was a pretty good passer if he’s 4th all time. I didn’t imply that he was better than those who came after him, just that there is/was often a perception that QBs tagged as “dual threat,” are not thought of as strong passers. He is right up there with all those guys. And if...

If the gophers are sufficiently motivated, it should be a blowout like the Nebraska game. If they’re in letdown after the big game this week, it could go either way.

On what basis? The OSU-PSU and IU-OSU game scores? That is not a valid comparison. OSU has been getting stronger throughout the season (wouldn’t that be nice?) and the PSU game was a whiteout in Happy Valley versus IU visiting the ‘Show, first time Cignetti has ever coached there. Illinois at...

AAK was not a bad passer, especially in hindsight comparing to the string of quarterbacks since him.

I didn’t even consider Washington and Oregon. Eugene is way way more than 200 miles from 4 start target rich territory.

And here they come. I mean, a 4 win team beating #15 in 4OT deserves a celebration.

2 plays in a row Auburn gets screwed, possibly deciding the game.

Nebraska and Iowa must be in that category.

Auburn with 3 false start penalties on what should have been a game winning TD drive. At home with no crowd noise factor. Super undisciplined play. Tied up and going to OT.

Nebraska is bowling because they played UTEP (2-9), N Iowa (3-9) and Purdue (1-10), so half their wins from teams that would have to pool all their wins to get to 6, and a very very down Wisky team. Kudos though for the Colorado win and Rutgers is actually OK this year. They won the games they...

And they almost lost - BYU completes the Hail Mary but it’s 2 yards short of the end zone as the QB had to backtrack a bit before throwing.

Wisconsin is in danger of entering a dark age if they can’t stabilize their coaching staff and roster to compete in the B18. If they decide to keep Fickell then he better lobby for a big budget to get the best OC they can as quickly as possible, and then said OC will need a good NIL budget to...

I don’t think that’s true this year. I think they have several quite good but not great teams and they’re beating each other. Kansas has a losing record but all their losses are by one score to teams with winning records.

I just tuned in to the BYU ASU game, what the heck happened, thousands rushed the field and tore down the goalpost but there was 1 second left for a BYU Hail Mary and they had to get EVERYONE back into the seats 😆

One of the best games in the top 25 today. PSU is pretty talented and scrappy but they’re just that - not in the same tier as Oregon or OSU. Maybe not even Indiana. Probably 4th best in B1G while Gophers are 7-9, which is where you get a hard fought 1 point home loss.

I saw a graphic highlighting that PSU has beaten no one other than Illinois with more than 5 wins. They barely beat Bowling Green and USC. The Gophers are the “best” team they’ve faced this year outside OSU. can’t believe they are ranked #4. This could be the cheapest “Top 5” win for the Gophers...
