    Koi Perich’s one offensive play vs. Maryland is sign of things to come

    They would probably have Koi switch numbers when on offense. There's already a system for this, if you ever hear "Player #X is now wearing #Y" it's because a player is switching numbers to be in the field. I believe it happens mostly during special teams plays, but I remember UCLA having a...

    Gopher Ranking Thread- Gophers ARE NOW RANKED #25 CFN Poll

    If we manage to win out, maybe, since it would include a win over at the time #24 Illinois and a (probably) top 5 Penn State. Even more likely if our games vs Rutgers and Wisconsin are blowout wins. If we lose any down the stretch, I don't think we get ranked in any poll. If our games vs...

    Illinois Point Spread

    Ding ding ding, we have a winner. Brosmer is the best gopher QB we've seen in a while, when he is afforded enough time to go through his progressions and make a smart throw. He unfortunately does not have the athleticism to extend plays when forced out of the pocket, at least not consistently...

    The Gophers have not had a 300-yard passer in nearly 700 days

    That goal of 70% completion rate for the season getting closer and closer to being a reality . . .

    The Gophers have not had a victory over Illinois in nearly 1,450 days

    I hope this thread has the same outcome as the "The Gophers have not had a 300-yard passer in nearly 700 days" thread . . .

    P.J. Fleck calls Gophers LB Cody Lindenberg 'director' of defense

    He caught himself and still used the "wrong" term, lol. If we're calling the DC the composer of the defense, in this analogy the proper term to use for Lindenberg would be "Conductor" instead of "Director". However, even with the wrong term I still understood what Fleck was getting at, and...

    Big Ten quarterbacks ranked by Total QBR after Week 7 of 2024 season (12. Max Brosmer (Minnesota))

    I don't know the formula either, but I'm sure # of attempts and the yards per attempt influence the score a decent amount. So a QB who has the same # of attempts and same completion percentage who had wide receivers who got a lot of yards after the catch might have a higher rating than a QB...

    What Gopher uniforms would be best for throwbacks?

    I mean, what helmet schools are you referring to? Michigan, Ohio State, and Notre Dame are the only ones I can think of that have had the same "style" helmet for a really long time and even they switch it up occasionally. As well, notably, none of those schools feature their school logo or...

    What Gopher uniforms would be best for throwbacks?

    For example, with our current uniforms, if you did a white helmet, maroon jersey, white pants you get pretty close to the home jerseys used from 1960-1967, with the following differences: Our current white helmet has the block M on both sides of the helmet, while the helmet from 1960-1967...

    What Gopher uniforms would be best for throwbacks?

    Honestly our current uniforms already have some "throwback" parts, so depending on the year not much would need to change. Of course, it would depend on how close to a specific era design you wanted to be. Do you just evoke a certain era, but have some differences that make it not a "true"...

    Gophers QB recruit Jackson Kollock honors sister lost to SIDS

    I am not a parent, but I have seen people lose children a couple times (once was a miscarriage, other times it was adult children dying before their parent). It's one of the things I have determined I would never wish on even my worst enemy.

    Koi Perich = Highest Graded True Freshman

    He's going to have an awesome career here. Only downside is he's absolutely good enough to declare for the draft early, so we're only going to have 3 years of him (knock on wood he remains injury free his whole time in college). Selfishly, I hope he's one of the few players who decides to play...

    Oregon 12 Players on the Field

    There are countless rules across many sports that were written because someone found a loophole in the exist rules and used it to get an advantage. A coach doing something like this is nothing new.

    "Big 10 Tradition"

    Lol, it is, every B1G conference game. The band does not play the opposing school's song during non-conference games though, instead playing Go Gopher Victory in the same place. However, if you usually sit on the home sideline, the entire band turns to face the away side when playing the other...

    "Big 10 Tradition"

    I've watched some other, original B1G member bands's pregame show and some of them also call it out as a B1G pregame tradition IIRC. But it would not shock me if the PAC didn't do this, and so the change would be jarring to their fans if they didn't explain why they were doing it.

    *IF* The Gophers win out, do they make the playoffs?

    I voted no. Mostly because I don't see a 9-3 team making it in this year unless all of their 3 losses are to teams also making it into the playoffs. At the moment, I don't think any of our 3 losses are making it into the playoffs, so we won't either. If we win out, best I see happening is: 1...

    KC and AK

    It's so refreshing to have a QB that actually progresses through his reads (when the OL manages to give him the time to do so) and makes (mostly) smart decisions.

    News coming Monday on potential Rule Breaking by UCLA?

    I think it's not that they submitted the same report as the previous week, but rather the B1G posted the wrong report. I think our report was the same as the previous week, listing Baranowski as "OUT" instead of questionable, which seems to contradict what I heard about him being a "Game time...
