    Fleck again takes the blame but cites major problem with missed tackles

    I understand feeling the need to take responsibility. I understand not wanting to be like "Our DC screwed up" or "X player did poorly". But it is dissonant to take responsibility, and then point out a (valid) thing that contributed to our poor performance without giving at least some...

    Fleck Postgame: "Unacceptable, falls on me." (video)

    Coach Fleck, we've passed the point where saying this is enough to hold yourself accountable. Your actions are saying something different. As you say: "Change your best". Have the tough conversations (with yourself and others), make the tough decisions, and show us you are holding yourself...

    Week 4 Other Games Thread

    Hey, maybe NC will turn out to be that 1 game a year that we absolutely should have won but found a way to lose?

    ***OFFICIAL IOWA AT MINNESOTA FLOYD OF ROSEDALE RIVALRY IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Do we have any confirmation of that? Or just rumors/speculation? Obviously, we'll know for sure 2 hours before game time.

    Mo comes home!

    Mark my words, Fleck is going to slowly build a coaching staff filled with former players.

    Fleck doesn't think last year's fair catch fiasco adds any juice to Iowa showdown

    Unfortunately due to a rule change this year, Fleck wouldn't be able to use all the TOs back to back. Either Iowa would need to use a timeout, or Fleck would need to do something like: TO First Down Play TO Second Down Play TO Third Down Play -> kneel to end the game.

    Predict the Score Thread - Floyd of Rosedale on the Line!!! MINNESOTA vs Iowa

    While I think a shutout of Iowa is possible, they probably will score some points. Minnesota: 21 Iowa: 10

    This week in the B1G

    The USC/Michigan game will be very interesting. If it's a close game, they winner will get a small boost, and the loser a small fall, but both stay within the top 25 (and the winner will be ranked higher than the loser). If it's a blowout, I bet the loser will drop out of the top 25 and the...

    Which Team do you hate more Iowa or Wisconsin?

    Iowa, for a few reasons. 1. I have family who are Badger fans (my mom was born and grew up in Madison), so there is some familial bias. I do now have in-laws who are Iowa fans and are wonderful people, so this point is less impactful recently. 2. I've been to many Gopher-Badger games over the...

    Gophers PJ Fleck 1-6 Against Iowa

    Just got an email from the U that "Limited tickets remain", no clue what exactly that means in terms of how close to a sellout we are.

    Hopefully things stay that way through the rest of the season!

    Defense!!

    Yep, I hope PJ is smart and offers him a decent pay bump and contract extension to keep him here.

    Full Banana vs Nevada

    I think they will go all Maroon next week for the Maroon out. I honestly wish they had gone full banana for the Gold out game, but oh well.

    WHO HATES IOWA?

    Iowa's offense is pedestrian. They put up high numbers vs Illinois State (FCS, 2-1) and Troy (Sun Belt, 0-3) but those are teams that a B1G team should be at handily. When they played Iowa State, their only P4 game so far, they only put up 19 points. I think it's safe to say our defense is...

    ** How Many Games Will the Gopher Win? ** Pulse Vote After Crushing Nevada

    I'm voting 8+ From what I've seen from the defense so far, and the slow, but noticable improvements in the offense, I think the following games are all reasonably within reach for us to win: Iowa UCLA Maryland Illinois Rutgers Wisconsin Win all of them, and we're at 8 wins. I also think it's...

    Justing Walley is not listed out on the Availability report, but I saw him on the sidelines without pads.

    ***OFFICIAL NEVADA AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Not a great half for our offense, but I'm happy to see us actually push to score a TD before the half ends rather than run the clock out.
