    Wisconsin 4-star WR transfer Markus Allen visiting Gophers

    He has been a WR his whole life and in the NFL, was a college and NFL WR coach... Outside of Bateman and potentially CrAB we haven't seen as much WR talent out of here in his tenure. I mean look at this year, even PJ said the group is just struggling with their fundamentals. I'm not saying...

    Wisconsin 4-star WR transfer Markus Allen visiting Gophers

    It always has shocked me how we struggle on WRs considering that is our head coaches specialty...

    Iowa/Minnesota O/U 32.5 lowest ever?

    Yeah Trickett has been excellent this year outside of Purdue, when I refer to our special teams being decent at best I'm mostly talking about punting. Dead last in the B1G ten in longest punt and second to last in average distance. The key playing Iowa will be making them drive long distances...

    Iowa/Minnesota O/U 32.5 lowest ever?

    Its crazy that what I'm most worried about on a team is their special teams. They can very easily win this game for them. Our special Teams in on the edge of decent at best... Will be interesting to see if we can pin them downfield during any point in the game.

    Hypothetical - question on successful season

    I would say its a disappointment. With all the returning seniors its safe to say PJ and the teams intentions were to purely win the west, and into the first four games it looked like it could be a lock. CrAB going down, although unpreventable, was a disappointment. If this was a normal B1G...

    '23 3-star Tennessee WR Chance Fitzgerald includes Gophers in Top 12

    We could build quite a tall WR room with him Wright and Markus Allen if he commits as well. All 6'2 and above

    True freshman running back

    Yeah Mo seems to really get going in the second half. I imagine its because he tires out defenses and will lay his head straight into the chest of the guy coming at him. I'd honestly love to see Evans play the opposite of Mo, hit the edge and explode in the gap.

    There is no chance Braelon Allen comes to the U

    And you don't need to read it? There are plenty of threads about random information. I hope your days gets better, there's more important things to complain about in life

    The Matchup With Iowa

    I have to completely disagree with you there, if that's the case why did our defense put in their backups? Why play Zach Evans in that last drive? They already get reps in practice right? There is a complete difference in playing in practice unis against your own team compared to a game...

    The Matchup With Iowa

    Glad we agree. Are people genuinely thinking fans are annoyed were winning? I love PJ Fleck and what he's done for the program but sometimes his conservative coaching can be too much. God forbid Mo gets injured in garbage time forcing the ball up the throat of the defense, people would be...

    7-3!!! Do we crack the rankings?

    Media seems to be fond of Iowa so I imagine beating them would put us maybe at 25? if not at least top 30 with AP Votes

    The Matchup With Iowa

    I think people dislike the way we win those games because they know it wont work against better teams, yes we crushed those teams but they have a combined 2 in conference wins. Will it work in the next two games? Who knows.

    The Matchup With Iowa

    Here's my thoughts on the game... The weather is going to be the biggest factor in the game, it will be the coldest temperature most of these players will ever play in. Its hard to prepare for that and will make every hit hurt that much more. I believe this game will be determined within the...

    There is no chance Braelon Allen comes to the U

    Under the rumors of him hitting the transfer portal some folks were talking about how maybe Minnesota could be a contender on his list. On a recent Instagram post by Markus Allen (WR from the Badgers who was on a visit this weekend) where Markus is seen wearing a gopher Uniform, Braelon Allen...

    7-3!!! Do we crack the rankings?

    I think if you look at us statistically we would be top 15... that being said strength of schedule plays a huge part in the rankings and we don't even have a decent one. A win against a hot Iowa team I think could put us around 23. If we win out I think we end around 20.
