But they probably have ten times the fans that gopher football has

A regular kick off game every year in MN sounds good. First game of the college football season. A way to re-establish MN as a college football state.

I wish it were located in Duluth. Or Rochester.

I'm guessing there's some NCAA rule that would forbid this, but wouldn't it be cool to invite the previous year's national champion and runnerup to play a bowl game in August in Minnesota? "Every once in a while you just gotta say Whisky, Tango, Fox"

And there was a time when Packer fans couldn't imagine a loss. But the NFL has a draft that tends to limit dominance and bottomness. The NCAA doesn''t and much of the top talent tends to gravitate to a few, perennial powerhouses.

Agree, not ridiculous. I'd expect MSU and Nebraska to be much improved.

70 rush. 30 pass. Learn to confidently convert on 3rd and one. Take more 4th down chances. Run a trick play each game. Pass frequently to TE.

I haven't looked up the stats, but the pass/run ratio during the 2019 season seemed about right. The two attacks should be complementary. Success at each enriches the other. Thanks for the conversation and be well.

I don't think so. Defenses can hope for errant passes, sacs, deflections, interceptions, holding penalties (more common on passes). Much can go wrong on passes. Plus, when trailing, a steady rushing attack adds anxiety because of the clock. And weather and surface conditions can make passing...

You pass-happy guys are amusing. Gophers won by doing what they needed to do even ending the game in the Victory Formation. I loved the running attack (although I'd have had Nubin carry more times). There's nothing more demoralizing to a defense than a rushing team that keeps getting first...

The more shots of Ms Swift that the networks show, the more passes Kelce drops. Stop showing Kramer's fiancee.

Possession of the ball is the most important asset. I hate punting.

Lindsey? AR

I think that's coming.

I'm intrigued. Explain further.

To us outstate kids, the metro isn't Minnesota.

They've done pretty well. And I like their style of play.

That makes me think. I don't know what limits coaches' contracts might have re retention but it seems many departures are mutually agreeable. Anyway, the NCAA wouldn't have any say in job changes for coaches since coaches are employees of the school not students. I think the NCAA has lost...

What about m You're not kidding.

Yes, just as any employer can disappoint an encouraged candidate if a better one shows up. Do it enough, however, and your reputation becomes sullied.
