From The Gopher Gridiron podcast it sounds like it takes upwards of $150k per year to bring in a transfer QB and I don't know whether DA has that type of money yet.

So true. Came in extremely thin, and then a crazy amount of defensive players lost during the game. Wisconsin's won the line of scrimmage battle after Minnesota won it the past few years. Allen finally had success vs Minnesota and he no longer was timid. Gophers DLine rarely got pressure and...

As a Gopher fan I feel like we had the rug pulled out from under us. We supported the team through tough times, and then finally the things that we knew needed to happen were taken care of: 1. Outdoor stadium 2. Premier practice facilities 3. Better coaching hires with Kill and then Fleck. And...

I would say the opener vs OSU in 2021 was competitive. The team and coach played to win and the talent gap wasn't as large. Also was it 2018 when the Gophers played a respectable game at Columbus? Also prior to NIL the BIG West was stronger. This year just feels like the whole West took a couple...

On the positive the D Line played better at times. Having Walley play man against Harrison Jr worked well and I wish the defense played more man. Evans was effective. It was obvious to everyone how big the talent gap was and is. It seems to be getting worse with NIL and it's really dissapointing...

I wonder if the secondary poor play is somewhat scheme and probably injury related. In today's game, Walley mostly played man on the best college receiver and for the most part locked it down. He is a really good man corner. I think the zone coverage this year has been really bad and not sure...

Has the Rossi secondary always played this much zone? God they are terrible in zone for much of the year. I know Walley and Nubin are good to great players. Can Rossi make an adjustment to man or coach up the zone?

Huh? I think for a lot of young people it is a big selling point. It’s one of the top ten cities in the country I would argue.

I agree. Something was off yesterday besides missing two linebackers. The D Line was dominated. Anyone remember that Purdue extra point where the center and guard picked up our d tackle and body slammed him? The D Line was dominated yesterday.

There were mistakes made by both offense and defense late in this game. How did Williams get behind the Gopher’s secondary? This guy is so disruptive Copied from Illini guy’s twitter feed Before Jer'Zhan Newton entered the game. Minnesota Passing - 9-of-11, 130 yards, 1 TD Rushing - 17...

Do you want to win, Vikings? Then do this!

I personally would cut Tyler some slack. This team could use all the potential playmakers it can get. Maybe the coaches can think of him as Bucky Irving 2.0 :), but I know Bucky could run between the tackles as well.

Great effort and results by Oline and Nubin! Still hoping they can figure out a way to get Tyler the ball in space (like they did on the play where he put his knee down but without doing that) :)

Yeah he is like a lot of guys that cover sports in this town, in that he doesn't pay attention to college football.

You only thing that I truly believe you returned is being dumb fan.

That might have been the most dominant DLine performance by a Gopher team vs a Wisconsin/Iowa team (you know the teams that have had really good Olines traditionally) that I have seen. So fun to watch. They were getting home when rushing 4 and sometimes 3 plus stuffing the run. I wish the...

Feel so bad for this guy. Hope he can heal up. He was playing in his hometown too.

I thought that the Jackson route on the sideline against Dejean was a good example of Athan's mechanics being off. He just needed to step and fire the ball but he was flatfooted and the ball arrived a foot in front of Jackson. By the way Jackson is really good in my opinion. He was consistently...

I think if Taylor had been playing on those last 3 rounds of three and outs that the Gophers would have picked up at least 1 first down. Tyler ran hard, but inside running is not his forte. Maybe it's time for LeCaptain? The next man up would ideally have some physicality. Not sure if Max Grand...

I would add: Gophers were down three running backs and 4th Q running was more ineffective than it should have been Iowa punter out punted our punter during the 4th quarter almost to the point of putting Iowa in FG territory without having any offense.
