    Less Predictable

    I hope we run a few less predictable plays in certain areas. I know during the regular season there may not have been a viable option if Morgan got hurt so they didn't run him hardly at all. However, in the bowl game I would like to see him keep the ball once in a while to keep the defense...

    Any time signing period

    Organizations like ESPN and Internet groups would probably fight the change because they most likely earn extra advertising and income this time of year.

    Any time signing period

    I actually like the idea. I wonder if this has become a made for TV event and too big to change to something like you brought up. I would like it ... although I backtrack a bit because this is one of my favorite weeks of the year. They monitor at my work when you are doing none work stuff...

    Any time signing period

    I remember someone on here mentioning that kids should be able to sign anytime they decide they are ready to commit to a school. Who would that benefit the most? Schools like Minnesota or helmet schools? I see it being good for the schools if they can get a kid to really commit and not just...

    Gophers receive a commitment from IMG Academy linebacker Jaqwondis Burns

    Don't know anything about him but if lots of other schools want him I'm glad he's going to be a Gopher!

    Panagos to Rutgers

    I don't like seeing this ... but from an ethics point of view ....it is better than a kid finding out his position coach is moving on a day after he signed his letter. Is Panagos getting a raise in salary or position? Is there some conflict with Fleck?

    Auburn Offensive Coordinator?

    Was listening to the SEC network on the way home from work. They mentioned that Morris may get more control of the offense and they may try to practice some of what Morris brings to the table in order to use it for the bowl game. So that may be a disadvantage for the Gophers if that happens...

    Gophers open as 8 point underdogs against Auburn.

    Good note: I was just going to ask about how Vegas makes their money. I thought it was something like how you explained it. Thanks.

    Gophers open as 8 point underdogs against Auburn.

    Teams from the north are usually at a disadvantage in most bowl games. If not next door...in most bowl games the other team is usually a team from the south or in the same region. So I am not surprised the line is 8 points. I'm not saying that the Gophers can't win but I would think the...

    All Things Bowl Game Speculation

    I think the big difference between middle of the road teams and the top teams is the OL and DL. I don’t think we match up well in that area. Especially without the big guy not being able to play.

    Dropped punt by becky

    I bet every long time Gopher fan was remembering that dropped punt with just a few seconds against Wisconsin. Bounced right up into the hands of a Wisconsin defender and broke the hearts of any Gopher fans watching or listening on the radio. ?

    CFP Rankings: OSU 1, WI 8, PSU 10, Mich 14, Iowa 16, Minnesota 18

    There should be no rankings until four or five weeks in any area. Those first rankings are always guessing where teams should be. Then they go back and say. They beat Notre Dame when they were ranked 10th or something like that when Notre Dame never should have been that high in the first...

    Crowd control getting on rail

    So you are saying in your previous reply that the fastest way to go west is to catch a train going east and that train will end up returning west? It kind of makes sense....

    Crowd control getting on rail

    So your catching the station that is going toward the stadium not the one going to the Viking stadium? I know on the way back to the Viking stadium the door opened at the next station but it was too full for anyone to get on.

    Sconnie continues to land refs that turn the blind eye

    I know both teams played in the same weather but I think the Gophers could win this game if not played in slop. IMO it was a terrible match-up in this kind of weather for the Gophers. Wisconsin had to be thrilled when they saw the forecast.

    Crowd control getting on rail

    We are normally pretty calm people so we handled it but there were a lot of tempers flaring when a mass of people would just cut in and everyone else followed them while folks who had waited a half hour were left behind.

    Crowd control getting on rail

    This is my first experience using the light rail at the stadium sight. I think they need to do a little better with crowd control. Especially on days with expected big crowds. There was no manageable crowd control with getting on the train. At Viking and Twin's games they have guide rails...
