    POST GAME THREAD: GOPHERS DOMINATE HUSKERS!! WIN 6TH STRAIGHT VS NEBRASKA!!!!

    Great win. However, when you see comments like this on Huskerboard you worry the world might be spinning off its axis. Even in the worst games under Frost, Husker fans would refuse to praise PJ. Not tonight, there was virtually no $hit talking tonight, but mostly praise.

    Is Our D Coaching Brutally Bad At Times?

    I could see Joe Rossi being back on the market this Spring as there are a lot of fingers being pointed at his defense after the loss to UCLA, while also looking bad against NEB & USC in previous weeks. If Smith scapegoats Rossi to keep his job, I could see PJ taking him back if Collins really...

    Former #Badgers HC Barry Alvarez RIPS Badger “fans”, calls them “spoiled rotten” and more! This is so fun!!!

    I think I see where Barry is coming from in terms of what his career looked like at Wisc, in that he had a whole lot of average seasons, but he capitalized and made the most of his really good seasons. As the list below shows, Barry only had one back-to-back double-digit win seasons (98 - 99)...

    Is IU's victory over the Ilini going to be the largest margin of loss for a Top 10 ranked FBS team ever?

    Wisky Fans calling it like they see it.....

    Well, it should be an interesting season for Badger fans as they now struggle to see where their 3rd or 4th victory will come from this year. I watched 4 offensive series in between the 1st and 2nd Qtrs and that might be the worst Wisc offensive line performance I've seen in maybe 30+ yrs. In...

    Week 3 Other Games Thread

    Dabo's seat might not be hot yet, but it's warming up. Many had thought they had a very good chance to make the playoff this year and could win the ACC with a senior laden team. Here they sit three weeks in, and they need to win out to have any chance with their 2 losses.

    Illinois Athletics Gets $100M Gift

    I guess you hadn't seen this. The bridge wasn't completely burned, it's just because of this, they won't go near him and charities won't even take his money...

    Illinois Athletics Gets $100M Gift

    The UofM does not lack the money, but I have not been impressed with the job Coyle has done leveraging a university Alumni base of 641,000, according to their own numbers. The UofM's fundraising team does a great job, but whoever they have working the athletic program angle not so much. Just to...

    Fun to see ISU out Iowa Iowa with their kicking game. Two years in a row where their kicker Konrardy daggered them.

    Former Minnesota standouts Tanner Morgan and Emma Carpenter will partner with play-by-play announcer Jason Ross Jr on Saturday's Gopher game.

    Fun to see ISU out Iowa Iowa. Their kicker Konrardy daggers the Hawks in back-to-back seasons.

    Big ISU fan for a day. Nice to see those 2 final ISU sacks. Another week under 100 yds (83). Iowa the place QBs go to end their careers.

    ESPN's Football Power Index (FPI) 2025 is a bit Joke to Start the Year

    Looking at ESPN's Football Power Index (FPI) for 2025 is a bit of a Joke as you'll see below. If you look at the Trend column, you'll find that a majority of the Big1G dropped despite wins. If fact, Minny dropped 9 spots to number 53 after a WIN over Buffalo. Evidently, if you don't cover the...

    RandBall: Where’s the money? Gophers budget shortfall raises questions

    If we're going to pick non-revenue sports to go after, then let's at least pick the sports we aren't competitive in. In the most recent track and field season (2024-2025), the University of Minnesota's men's team achieved a historic seventh-place finish at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, their...

    5 star tackle commits to TTU for 5mil over 3 years

    The settlement definitely changes things. All NIL deals exceeding $600 must now be reported to a designated platform, NIL Go, as part of the House settlement. This applies to all Division I student-athletes. The reporting mechanism is managed by Deloitte through NIL Go, which serves as a...

    5 star tackle commits to TTU for 5mil over 3 years

    You know who has to be really pissed about this is the other top programs like OSU, Oregon, Georgia, Texas, Mich and so on who are going after the elite 5-Stars or even those elite 4-Stars who are ranked in the top 200 players. You know there were some 5-Stars players who probably heard the news...

    5 star tackle commits to TTU for 5mil over 3 years

    P.J. Fleck gets a new contract extension—pending approval from Board of Regents—keeping him under contract until 2030.

    Well, here were the numbers as of February, and there must have been multiple coaching contract updates to move PJ's rank to 11th based on where things stood in February. Back in Feb, there wasn't a massive disparity between 5th and 11th at this kind of money and if you want to talk getting to...
