    The coach, the staff and the players have treated us to a noteworthy Big Ten season!

    7 wins. 2 losses. Excitement. Dreams of more. A season that most Gopher Fans have never seen. Wasn’t it WILD? Wasn’t it fun? Wasn’t it exactly what we have all been wanting? Of course it has been. So our two BT losses were to Iowa and Wisconsin. One or the other of them kept us from...

    At what point do you consider that "the program has been turned around"?

    Mase got the stadium built. His Big Ten winning percentage was .400 and some years above. He won some border battles and started getting some bowl wins. Any GOPHER football coach with a tenure at Minnesota of .400 and above is in an elite class. Since 1972, the list of .400 plus Big Ten...

    The Gophers better watch out vs. the Cats

    Respect your BT foe. Respect the history of the rivalry. Respect the memories of the great wins, upsets and heartbreaking losses that history has provided those privileged to wear the colors of each team. Good luck to all...may the better team win. A game in Evanston in November. For those...

    The Gophers better watch out vs. the Cats

    This is a Big Ten game on the road in November. NOTHING is certain. On any given Saturday in November in ANY given Big Ten Stadium ANY unlikely outcome IS possible. Play as though the season depends on the outcome GOPHER...it does.

    Wannstedt/BTN Power Rankings

    Big Ten wins at the end of the season will clearly establish the exact order of the rankings of power in the Big Ten Football Conference.

    Run the ball...stop the run this week...iowa made the GOPHER try to beat them with the pass. MUST beat NU with the run.

    Run some wildcat on the wildcats. Jump start ‘em with a green machine jump pass. Can’t quit ‘cause the qb got dinged. This is football!

    Run the ball...stop the run this week...iowa made the GOPHER try to beat them with the pass. MUST beat NU with the run.

    Iowa took the run away...knocked a lot of passes down by getting their hands up and letting our receivers catch a bunch of passes. RUN on the Cats and all will be ok.

    A 4-5 conference record in 2019 would make Fleck a .333 Big Ten Coach after 3...

    seasons here and would give his team a shot at an 8 win season in a bowl game. I think that would be a reasonable expectation. All things are possible if progress is made. O-line: make some progress...

    season. In 14 Big Ten games this season he is 6-8: a .429 winning percentage. Overall in Big Ten play during his tenure at Minnesota, his record is 37-67 for a .356 winning percentage. That is an increase of 12 basis points over his cumulative record in Big Ten play of .344 at the end of the...

    Winning 2 of 3 Big Ten games in November in year #2 is avery good sign!

    Winning last 2 of 3 Big Ten games in November in year #2 is avery good sign! The only way for a Big Ten football program to start improving is to win Big Ten football games. Coach Fleck proved by winning two Big Ten games in his first season that he had a shot at being a Big Ten football...

    I really have never put too much creedence in high school fantasy ratings & stars... However, it is no wonder that Seth Green had so much hype during his high school career. He is the WILDCAT of the year in the Big Ten, if not the nation. A TD pass...a TD run...several key first downs today...

    Most unsung offensive hero for the first 1/2 of 2018 season in my book is:

    Seth Green. He is totally under used and apparently under appreciated around here. Minnesota Golden Gophers Stats - 2018<form class="js-goto" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent;"><select...

    Haven't read all the threads, but I have a question: Wildcat broke, in dog house or..

    in the third and 4th quarters in the RED ZONE, did the coaches just forget we have a WILDCAT FORMATION? Our young qb has a gimpy leg. Things happen really fast inside the RED ZONE. Please tell me that the coaches didn't just forget the Wildcat. The coaches with their calls came out of two...

    Not a "twitter" but a a blast from the past wants to know...

    At the game today I chanced upon an old friend and a very wise and ever present Golden Gopher Football Follower more commonly referred to around these parts merely by the moniker: The Loon. Loon wanted to know just how the old gang at Gopher Hole feels about those four ooc wins our Golden...

    is very well-coached by a VETERAN Big Ten Coach and a veteran Big Ten Staff that has once again PROVED that they DO belong and DO need to be running this Football Program! The win over Northwestern removes ANY chance of a winless Big Ten Season. The Staff Members DO face the challenges of game...

    Student Section Attendence: who is ultimately responsible for this problem?

    As is noted in a previous thread, the Student Section and student attendance at Football games is pathetic. I would like to know who people feel is ultimately responsible for establishing a thriving, energetic, always filled student section in TCF BANK STADIUM? Some examples might be...
