    Big 10 Pay-to-View only?

    Is that the future? Indiana-Mich St, the week Indiana became #3, its highest rank ever, and its coach given a fabulous contract, was available on Peacock Premium only; likewise, Penn State -Iowa, a major game of the season, the week Coach Franklin was fired, also is available only on Premium...

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

    Near perfect game: first half 9 out of 10; second half, a 10! Husker fans on chat lines down on Rhule, Penn State chat line fans don't want him, either - they watched our game.
  3. Great Plains Gopher

    Midwest farmland and real estate for sale, dial 1-800-PJF-LECK

    Nebraska football chat lines full of contempt for Rhule tonight, grudging respect for Coach Fleck (they really don't like him, now 1-7 against him) and Penn State chat lines down on Rhule almost unanimously.

    ***OFFICIAL NEBRASKA AT MINNESOTA, BUDDING RIVALRY, $5 BITS OF BROKEN CHAIR IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    "Establish the Run" - stupid, stupid, stupid and so predicable. Throw on first down, second down, third down - that was the way to start. The only way the Gophers are going to run tonight is if the passing game opens things up.

    Has NIL Helped or Hurt Gopher Football? (4+ years in)

    Eventually, half the team will be transfers - some players at their third or even fourth schools. No loyalty to teams, fellow players, coaches, schools, much less academic majors. The wealthy will buy entire teams and most schools, including Minnesota, will not be able to keep up with the...

    Predict the Score Thread: Nebraska at Minnesota

    With those QBs it could be a kind of wild shootout game, but defense and special teams may decide it along with the team with the stronger running game - so Nebraska 34, Gophers 24.

    Video: P.J. Fleck is BEST Minnesota Gophers coach in 75 years!

    PJ is a 60% winner, the best since pre-WWII Bierman. But a national championship will never happen. With no divisions to win, we should be happy with what we have.

    Nebraska Game

    How did PJ not recruit "Mr. Football" Emmet Johnson, from Minneapolis, who is now Nebraska's top runner, a pass catcher and an All-B10 Academic, and one of the best rushers in the B10? It took him awhile to mature, but his style is exactly what the Gopher running game needs this year. With their...

    Fleck and Virginia Tech? Says small chance... but worth noting

    The Gophers under Kill and Mason were not "mediocre."

    It also needs some divisions so that teams have something to play for.

    Franklin Fired

    Nebraska's coach, Rhule - played for Paterno at Penn State, had three years with the AD at another school and they are close. Nebraska may be playing to "win one for the coach" Friday night.

    Post Game Thread: Drake, Koi Lead Gophers to Crazy Comeback Homecoming Win!!

    Great to see it - the team had spirit, right down to the end, especially Drake and Koi. Nebraska is ranked for the first time in a while (#25, Writers Poll). Let's pull an upset in an exciting night game! To run the ball , put a Volkswagen in the offensive line.

    Franklin Fired

    I remember how impressed I was with Franklin when he was at Vanderbilt - I was living in Atlanta for a few years then. What a terrible end to his career - if it is an end - I can see him coaching elsewhere.

    Franklin Fired

    Great point. Firing coaches DURING the season never used to happen - and shouldn't.

    ***OFFICIAL PURDUE AT MINNESOTA HOMECOMING IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Illinois being jobbed by officials in their game with Ohio State - receivers being mugged, catches being disallowed because the receiver had one foot out of bound at some point in his life, etc., but not when he caught the ball.

    Gopher football

    It's on the idiots who destroyed the NCAA's authority to set rules for amateur athletics - and that includes several federal judges.
  18. Great Plains Gopher

    This Gophers team is worse than last year. Next year's team will be better. Agree or disagree?

    Start building that NIL fund for Drake now - where is Sid when you really need him?
  19. Great Plains Gopher

    Gopher football

    No. Not in the age of NIL, not before NIL. Post WWII, I think we won at Columbus once under Mason, once under Bierman. All time it's 7-48 in total games.
