He was 18th out of 18 B1G QB's in most preseason QB rankings. It will be interesting to see where he ends up. By the same token, I preseason speculated 8-4 for the Gophers, with 6-6 possible if Lindsey was below average, and 10-2 or 9-3 if he was going to be well above average. As it turns...

Yes, the formations for short yardage continue to be a huge question mark. Fleck was asked about it on his weekly show and just sort of slid over it. I would have preferred "I don't know what we were thinking, going from a shotgun on fourth and inches"

So I apparently have an admirer from one of the OSU boards and this fella is willing to look up my claims from my OP in this thread. Well, "Zurp" would you like to double down on your claim regarding this play? I'd be happy to confirm the others as well. I was pretty careful to be clear that...

I've rewatched the most recent game a couple times and it is no different in terms of how I often come away with different conclusions than I do being at the game in section 135 where every play on the west side of the field is a loooooong way from me. The thing that stood out to me most for...

The obligatory pat on the head

I know the "U" tailgate lots require donation thresholds but in terms of the on campus lots that are within walking distance - is there room or is there a waiting list? Can any season ticket holder willing to pay the donation amounts expect to get into one of the tailgate lots in their first...

So many things stacked up against the Gophers in this one... huge talent gap OSU is a national title contender OSU fans hungry for a night game - and this is a night game first conference road game Gopher defense has been a bit suspect against the pass, up against the game's top receiver Recent...

I can't imagine the thought process: "Hmmm, here is a thread about the draft prospects for the hot new Gopher QB. Should I give my opinion on where I think he could be drafted if he continues to improve and continues to look this good? Should I remind the readers that he has only played a...

Where did you hear that? Facebook comments section?

We've had national championship games with two SEC teams. Things are a bit different now with a larger playoff but it is actually pretty common. The Gophers play in one of the two major conferences. Of course they are going to get some national TV games. What they aren't getting is their score...

A perfect name for a 57 year old financial advisor.

Maybe check on waiting times first because it was pretty ridiculous when we were there but this place has appeared on lots of foodie television shows and we had a blast there. Loved the massive burgers. https://thethurmancafe.com/

sometimes, even usually. Not always. When you have one conference with inflated early season ratings, it has an impact all season long And of course that doesn't address all the recruiting and exposure advantages to be had being ranked highly early season where you get all the good TV slots...

The OP here is exactly correct and the SEC Bias is nauseating. They continue to be undefeated in hypothetical matchups. All these other polls, especially the AP and Coaches have a huge impact on which teams get the best TV slots, who gets seen, and who gets the benefit of the doubt when the...

Yes but if you read the original post in this thread, there are several examples of the Gophers playing OSU pretty tough. The Gophers did not play Ohio State pretty tough in 2023. Other recent games were competitive.

11:00 AM games are awful for tailgating. Friday games are awful for tailgating. 6:30 will finally be IDEAL for tailgating. I guess that means there will be an early snowstorm that day. Or thunderstorm. Or all day 70 mph winds.

There is no doubt now. Who would trade Kaliakmanis and his worm burner misguided passes for both Brosmer AND Lindsey? Kaliakmanis was lucky to get out of town with only one bad interception and was out-dueled by a redshirt freshman this Saturday and although he got to point at the scoreboard...

I like to feel sorry for myself, as a MN sports fan. The minute Kaliakmanis transferred out, I thought to myself "Watch him improve now and make us all eat crow." For the most part, he did improve last year and he did get serve a big slice of crow when he beat the Gophers and their new hotshot...

I too have noticed the TV mics seem to be picking up the band better this season than in previous seasons. That always seemed to be an issue that Ohio State and Michigan could figure out. Even as a kid I could always hear Michigan's rouser take center stage after scores or turnovers, but...

Gophers are lucky to get two such accomplished play by play radio announcers (Grimm and of course Ray Christensen) in such short order.
