It’s roughly the same if you ignore line play Which is only like the entire ballgame lol

Fickell has more to do with internal politics than if he should be fired. I think most would say this is frost part two with a different red team. His future being tied to AD’s may give him another year Maryland is pretty cut and dry I think. I have a hard time seeing him fired if they make a...

And did last year too

Clearly that’s A But there aren’t a lot of teams in the big ten who have had A

Talent levels aren’t close along the lines. Which is concerning. Gophers o line was overwhelmed and hasn’t looked good since 2023 with the exception of a game or two

Woah they were unprepared? You said it was because they were scared?

Yup. And things snowballed If they play again I would probably be thinking Iowa wins 24-7 or something Clear talent gap on the lines with catastrophic mistakes If Iowa made mistakes and the gophers didn’t the gophers could beat them…but both teams playing their average game it’s a 2-3 score...

Yes but when people make a comparison to Mason they have to remember that was the era of 4 walkovers

Lol in this post you say ultra conservative but they threw the ball like 9 of the first 12 plays Then later you say Iowa was conservative Was Iowa scared ? Mixing play calls bad isn’t a reflection of the coach’s fear level, IMO Whatever helps you sleep at night but in this post you provided...

Agree But I do not agree with the same statement about Illinois

They also followed up the 2023 northwestern comeback with a win vs Louisiana They followed up 2023 Purdue with a loss to Ohio state

A really good thought experiment is would you rather have the Illinois 2005-present or the Minnesota 2005-present or Indiana-present Illinois 1 Rose Bowl 1 new years day non BCS/NY6/playoff 2 9 wins seasons 14 non bowl seasons Minnesota 0 major bowls 2 new years day non BCS/NY6/playoff 4 9...

True.

They stink so we should blow them out We stink so they should blow us out

I’m all in to have the solution be as simple as get fleck some confidence

What evidence do you have to say the team played scared vs Iowa? This is a claim I have seen numerous times in the past few days but I haven’t seen anything to back it up. People said three man rushes on third and long, but they have done that all year against multiple opponents.

Well I am not claiming they played well. I am just saying they weren’t as bad as offense and special teams. Iowa had fewer than 200 yards the last 55 minutes of the game. Even including the first drive Iowa had 4.89 yards per play. If you did that over the whole season it would currently make...

i mostly agree with this. But it’s hard for me to be too down on gopher defense or up on Iowa offense when they only had 275 yards Ohio state had 292% Minnesota’s yards Iowa had 206% Minnesota’s yards Minnesota played much better against Ohio state and Ohio state had a larger margin in yardage...

. its interesting but I think natural for people to misremember Lucky we live in the age in the internet and can check these things. 1999 gophers were masons best team in my opinion. They beat 1-10 Iowa by 4 in Iowa city. I would have to look it up. But how many gopher teams never lost by...

agree Make all classes 48 so this model works for all levels 1a would end up having like 52 and would have to make some slight modifications. Leave 9 man as is.
