    Gopher historians ? What is OUR largest comeback victory ?

    We were up 31-0 with about 3 minutes left in the first half. OSU was 4th & 10 from their own 20. They punted, but we had too many men on the field; automatic first down. They went on to get a TD right before half and the rest is history.

    What grade would you give the Gophers coaches in the win at Iowa?

    I'm tempted to give the head coach an F simply because of the circumstances of Evans' injury. So, so, so stupid. I've posted about this before, but here is an end-of-half, two-minute situation wish list. Most coaches: 1. TD 2. FG Fleck: 1. Don't let the other team have the ball back 2. FG 3...

    We get frustrated with our offense, but imagine going 2 YARDS FORWARD in the second half ...

    What's even crazier, is Iowa's FG only happened because they hit on what amounted to a Hail Mary on 3rd & 14. Great catch for sure, but 9/10 that is not completed. Their TD drive was 46 yards, which included 2 personal fouls and a PI from us. I have not watched a ton of Iowa football the...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT IOWA JUST FIND A WAY TO WIN THIS GAME THREAD!!!***

    I was unclear on this rule, but after reading this, my take is that if you signal anything with your hands, you are not allowed to field the punt and run. It doesn't matter what the signal was for. If you do signal, then all you can do is make a fair catch, or not field it. He clearly was...

    Great that we are running plays when we clearly have no interest in scoring and should just be kneeling down.

    Is PJ ever going to learn? You don't beat Iowa by playing to keep it close. If this is our play calling with the wind, what's it going to be into it?

    Postgame Thread: Gophers Lose to North Carolina

    How do you get beat deep with 8 in coverage? We did it more than once. Uncharacteristically poor pass defense was the most disappointing thing today. Following in a close second... we were winning the trenches and we yet insisted today was the day we were going to become a passing team...

    Absolutely! When we get pressure on him he is making terrible passes.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT NORTH CAROLINA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    There was a point in the 1st half where we had run 10 times with a 7 yard average, and AK was 4/14. I'm all for balance, but it's mind boggling why we came out threw SO much today, after running 56 times last week (when we could have easily thrown more) and seeing how our line is generally...

    Gophers' PJ Fleck has players wear 75-pound backpacks in nod to September 11 firefighters

    Yeah, crazy how time flies. The one that gets me, is 9/11 was 22 years ago. 22 years before that was 1979.

    Post Game Thread: Gophers Defeat Eastern Michigan and Improve to 2-0!!

    Probably the worst play of the game was was on 3rd & goal from the 6 just before our first FG. An obvious passing situation to the defense with a very short field, and we ran a 2-man route into crowded 7-man coverage. A straight pass too, not even a play action. Sure enough AK throws to the WR...
