    6-3 including 4-2 in B1G! I got a kick out of Ryan Burns' "Go find joy" rant!

    Obviously there are things I want to see the team get better at but I refuse to be bummed out by a win just because it wasn't as convincing as I wanted it to be. We were a 3 point favorite going into the game....it wasn't like we were favored by 30 and barely got the win.

    Oh I get it....MN sports fans are always anticipating the worst outcome at all times.... :)

    DT has been frustrating with the injuries but he absolutely makes a massive difference for our offense and our chances of winning a game are much higher when he is on the field.

    Our defense has potential next year - Perich, Brown, Kingsbury, Karmo, etc.

    Yeah, as much as I would love to have him back next year, Smith has NFL size and athletic ability....I will be shocked if he doesn't go pro and get drafted in one of the earlier rounds. Dude is an athletic freak, wouldn't shock me to see him go really high in the draft given that and the...

    6-3 including 4-2 in B1G! I got a kick out of Ryan Burns' "Go find joy" rant!

    Yeah, that is the problem when a team has instant success. Fans and administrations start to expect it and it is far easier said then done. In the case of Cignetti I am really curious to see how long he sticks it out at Indiana, won't be shocked one bit if he jumps to a traditional blue blood...

    6-3 including 4-2 in B1G! I got a kick out of Ryan Burns' "Go find joy" rant!

    There isn't a Gopher fan out there that doesn't want to have that view from the top.....but expecting it to happen is another story because Indiana is 1000% the exception and not the rule when it comes to making a coaching change and having it instantly lead to the kind of success they have had...

    Beating Oregon in Eugene would be cool but if I could only pick one with guaranteed loses in the other two I think the win has to be against Wisconsin. 4 wins in the last 5 years against Wisconsin would be pretty sweet.

    lol....why? I mean we can't take any game for granted but what could possibly scare you right now about the 2025 version of the Wisconsin Badgers? I mean I guess they only gave up 21 to Oregon in a friggin downpour. And granted, they have played a brutal schedule but the last time they...

    Didn't help that apparently Za'Quan Bryan got injured in pre-game warmups and had to miss the game last week. Our DB play has definitely left a lot to be desired overall this season. On the same note, many of our sacks have been coverage sacks where the QB has nowhere to go with the ball so at...

    Maybe This Is Actually a Lucky Season for the Gophers

    If Cignetti stays put it is pretty safe to assume Indiana will be good again, especially if Mendoza stays in school another year. But if Cignetti leaves there would be no guarantee that Indiana would be able to maintain this level because historically they have really struggled to do so. Don't...

    Maybe This Is Actually a Lucky Season for the Gophers

    Crazy part is that on paper that looks like a tougher conference schedule then this year but in this current era of college football you just never know. Penn State and UCLA will be breaking in new coaching staffs (although UCLA may want to seriously consider keeping the interim coach)...

    Just messing with you. Obviously we are a long shot against Oregon but crazy things happen.

    So you are saying we should just save money on airfare and hotel and not even bother showing up then?

    2-1 is very doable....if we play well. Oregon - we will have to play great and they will probably need to make some mistakes for us to spring the upset. - L Northwestern - Haven't seen much of them but get the sense they are very similar to us. Whichever team plays cleaner most likely wins...

    We all laugh at the SEC's "It just means more" slogan but you don't see many teams killing it in recruiting that don't come from areas where the college football program is king and has an almost cult like level of dedication to it.

    6-3 including 4-2 in B1G! I got a kick out of Ryan Burns' "Go find joy" rant!

    I had fun watching the Michigan State game....it was frustrating as he!! at times but we won so all in all a good day. I'm sure the coaches would love to win every game by 50 and give the fans a show but in the end their job is to win the game by any means necessary....style points don't matter.

    6-3 including 4-2 in B1G! I got a kick out of Ryan Burns' "Go find joy" rant!

    It is pointless to play the what if game.....every team can do it. Penn State is 0-5 in the Big Ten.....4 of their loses are by a combined 13 points. Including a 1 point loss to Iowa. Iowa is a handful of points from being undefeated but also barely beat PSU...... Win by 20 or win by...

    Maybe This Is Actually a Lucky Season for the Gophers

    We have been a pretty good road team under Fleck. (just road games no Neutral site) 2021 - 4-1 2022 - 3-2 2023 - 1-4 2024 - 3-2 Total - 11-9 So hopefully this year is more of a bad matchups vs. new trend in road games and we can get back to being solid on the road again in the future.

    Our defense has potential next year - Perich, Brown, Kingsbury, Karmo, etc.

    He is really settling in and becoming an impact player. He popped early in the Rutgers game but these last 3 weeks you can see him finding his role and flashing some major potential. If he can add some size/strength in the off season he could set himself up to be a leader along the D-Line over...
