    Potts and MBS in portal

    I feel like Potts was just rounding back into form at the end of last season. He's gonna be a good pickup for someone. But I think Tyler/Crooms will be upgrades from Potts/MBS

    Big Ten football: Projected regular-season win totals for every team in 2023 (Minnesota: Projected preseason win total: 7.5)

    It is definitely winnable. Their defense has been awful for the most part. I think it will be a fun game either way. I love our schedule next year. Even if we don't win as many games, every week we have a good opponent.

    Big Ten football: Projected regular-season win totals for every team in 2023 (Minnesota: Projected preseason win total: 7.5)

    We'll definitely be underdogs at UNC. Drake Maye will be a Heisman contender next year. And Eastern Michigan and Louisiana are not pushovers either. The conference schedule is brutal. 7-5 is my expectation. Anything more will be gravy.

    New OC’s named…

    Mo's departure, Athan's emergence, beefing up the WR corps through the portal, and promoting Simon all seems to indicate we'll be shifting to a more balanced, less run-heavy offense.

    Michael Brown-Stephens

    He had a rough year for whatever reason, but I think he will bounce back next year, whether it be here or elsewhere.

    The Barry Alvarez Era is Officially Over

    Fickell is more of the same. They'll have a great defense and a mediocre offense. If they're lucky they'll get back to the level of the dude they just fired.

    Bowl Game Projections?

    Just prepare to be disappointed.

    The Matchup With Iowa

    Don't pass once. Just line up and run it down their throats.

    Remaining path to win the west

    We all want to get to Pasadena, but 9-3 with the Pix and the Axe and a good bowl is a slam dunk great season. Still on the table.

    Warren suggests Divisions could be gone when USC/UCLA join

    Make the last week's scheduling flexible to create a semifinal of the top 4. Remaining teams can paired off to fill out the slate. Bump rivalry week up a week.

    Letdowns after big wins

    I think you just answered your own question. Even if you don't frame it as a letdown, an opposing team might just have more of an edge (coming off of a loss, desperate for a win, etc). If you're Alabama it means you only win by 10. If you're the Gophers (or most teams), it means you lose...

    Mark Coyle is headed to Chicago after Saturday’s game to meet with fellow Big Ten ADs to determine football schedules for the 2023 season.

    Endgame IMO is 20 team conference, 4 divisions, 10 games (4-2-2-2), then div winners playing semis into title game in Indy. Makes the most sense competitively, and the TV people will want the extra weeks of marquee conference + semi matchups. Teams want the TV money more than anything.

    Mark Coyle is headed to Chicago after Saturday’s game to meet with fellow Big Ten ADs to determine football schedules for the 2023 season.

    If it goes to 10 conference games (which it will eventually), it'll be at the expense of a G5/FCS paycheck game, which nobody will miss.

    Gophers new black uniforms expected to debut week one against New Mexico State. 🔥🔥🔥 (video)

    Gross. These are better than last year's black alts because at least they follow our uniform template, but they're still hideous. I disapprove !!

    It’s been a while, let’s talk uniforms

    Overall, the Kill era unis are by far my favorite. I love the number font they introduced and hope they always keep it. The unis we have now are fine, except for the following: * No to the black alts * No to the anthracite alts * Get rid of the wood grain on the helmet stripe, or just get rid...

    Gophers favored by 38.5?? Take the Aggies bigtime

    Aggies will be playing on 4 days rest and their big rivalry game vs UTEP is the following week. They'll collect their paycheck and get thrashed. Gophers cover.

    Reassure me about the Defensive Line

    We lost almost everybody and the new guys are talented, but very inexperienced. At least for the first half of the season it could be a real struggle. Who do you think will emerge as an impact player ?

    When will Fleck break out FULL BANANA!

    Hopefully never. Only slightly better than the black alternates they wore last year against OSU.

    Speculation on who is joining which conference

    Notre Dame, Oregon, Washington, Stanford will be added. 4 divisions of 5 teams, play everyone in your division and 2 from every other division. 10 game conference schedule. Division winners compete in 4 team playoff for conference title. SEC will poach 4 from the ACC and do the same. Playoff...

    Why are we 14th (last) in 2022 B1G recruiting?

    Outside of OSU, Michigan and Penn St, on the whole there is very little difference in the talent recruited by Big Ten teams.
