Fleck and squad has won 2 big ten games while trailing at half this year.

There are five 0-3 teams in the B1G and Gophers have 4 of 5 on schedule this year. All 4 are at home. 2-0 so far.

I also feel our backs are starting to bail to soon on the middle of the field. At some point you have to get up in the OL and create your own hole.

They were consistent that’s for sure.

3 points in second half and a TD less than their average. Didn’t feel that way from the stands. Purdue found a way to lose with 3 picks and a couple untimely face masks.

I agree. The crossover games are meaningless when it comes to seeding.

Many are coaches vote but many use the district record to seed.

MV matches up and plays the option well on defense. Shakopee struggled to beat them last year as well. 6A has some parity to it because of matchups. Seeing a lot of scores that suggest some wide open playoff action coming. Blaine scored the tying TD against Centennial and had it called...

He seems to keep losing coordinators to other schools or scapegoating them. Can only do that so long. I think he runs a good program but isn't a great X's and O's guy to get them to the championship level. He and Fleck seem to be very similar in their ceiling and it probably depends on the...

The new large league no longer has playoffs. They play games and have competitive match-ups for a bowl game tomorrow. Then if teams want to they can play in a 3-game tournament next weekend at the National Sports Center against teams from MN and WI.

Or they all quit and the A players have no one to practice against or push them to be better. There are multiple stories in our program of kids that were never "A" level players (We have B teams in 9th, 10th, and JV) and were all conference or starters their senior year, having never taken an...

They mention the Wisconsin model. Last year a couple MN teams played a team from Green Bay that has put guys in D1 and NFL. A MN 8th grade got killed by the 8th grade team and a MN 7th grade killed the Green Bay 7th grade team. Green Bay just had a RB that no one could catch and scored every...

Centennial at Blaine is probably the biggest game in 6A. Blaine 4-2 and Centennial is 5-1, tied with Champlin and Andover at 5-1. Blaine plays Andover next week. Blaine lost to Champlin by 4 late and Champlin got beat by 21 by Centennial. (Andover beat Centennial and Champlin beat Andover)...

Mike Sherels fighting the MN Youth status quo of Youth Football and evenly distributing talent. MN Youth programs evenly distribute talent. He argues that it should be A, B, C level like other sports. The top programs disagree with him. Good article with some good quotes...

Fleck is just doing what all SEC coaches do.

Probably with a 5A or 3A section.

I think the districts are simply a way to have control over what used to be conferences, so no one is left hanging. At this point they probably could just go to section play and pair a couple sections up, from the same region, for cross over games. For the most part the schedules make sense...

They finally fixed it with the new districts for the next 2 years. 5A and 4A have done a nice job of competitive balance for scheduling. Marshall is too big and good for any of the teams or rivals they were still playing so they pushed them north playing all 4A opponents this cycle. They...

Marshall should walk that section. Still think Rocori is second best team. St. Peter should get 3 seed for section but they played all 3A schools. Rocori beat (4-2) Totino Grace and plays (3-3) Becker this week.

That's a pretty good crop of talent
