:) One more thing about Wacker. When the Gophers fired him, Wacker had the guts to say "We absolutely should have been winning more games by now." He understood the firing and owned it. Most coaches don't do that anymore. They blame the University, AD, donors.

My oldest gopher memories are the Jim Wacker era. Absolutely a great guy and an easy person to root for. If positivity equaled wins Wacker never would have lost a game. Unfortunately it didn't. RIP Jim Wacker.

I went D. Not as good as I expected. Barely a passing grade if you want to call it that. If Im being optimistic Its because we have a young quarterback and the future can still be bright. A win is a win I guess...

Fair enough. I should have listened to Lincoln. "The problem with the internet is that you cannot always depend on Its accuracy" Abraham Lincoln

Nice take

I can tell you their quarterback alone makes $2.6 Million this year. https://www.on3.com/nil/rankings/player/college/football/?team-key=8776 A simple Google search revealed Mark Cuban was a big donor to the program. He wouldn't say how much he donated but said "Its a big number:.

Indiana is paying more than Minnesota

Curt Cignetti buyout is JUST 15 million. If a top school wanted him they could get him from Indiana

F is the only answer

Gophers 1 Iowa 0

It was nice making fun of that "proud of corn" CyHawk trophy Iowa-Iowa State until they got embarrassed and got rid of it. That's all I got. Iowa is lame.

Im trying to think of something. I might have to get back to you

also 9-9 vs Nebraska in my lifetime apparently

Yes!!! This is very true. Nebraska fans are some of the nicest to talk to. One of my favorite exchanges: NEBRASKA FAN: "We're can't stop the pass". ME: "Don't worry. We can't pass". Can't remember which qb that was. It was during the Jerry Kill era. It made the Nebraska fans laugh though.

California vs Belechek's Tar Heels right now. Classic ACC match up. Nothing says Atlantic Coast like California 😃

I said no. I think we get a few votes this week though

of course. We had a close game as recently as 2021. We aren't probably going to win 5 in a row. We will be underdogs but rarely get a win

sure. I will go a step further. Have that be our conference. Have other similar conferences from other parts of the country. The next tier 32 teams. Thats our league.

Yes. We would be left out if the 32 teams are allowed to have unlimited money. Essentially a "Pro College League" Ohio State, Michigan, Oregon, Alabama. Georgia etc. I would be fine having the Gophers as one of the top schools of the next tier.

Ohio State 28 Gophers 10 End of Brewster early Kill era I was in the group of fans that said 0 percent chance Gophers beat Ohio State. I think Its unlikely Gophers win Saturday but Its not impossible. Maybe 5 or 10 percent chance we win.
