    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT #1 OHIO STATE LET'S SHOCK THE WORLD IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Ohio State can buy top teams indefinitely now with NIL, players being paid by schools, and transfer at any time. The rich get richer, the poor will get poorer - and Minnesota will not be among the rich. Coaches also will move to the better teams because that is where the big money will be and...
  2. Great Plains Gopher

    Kaliakmanis leads the nation in passing yards (1150).

    Hitting at 69%, 7 TDs and only one interception. Will be interesting to see how he does here next week against Drake in his homecoming.

    10-2 - tell me I’m wrong

    After CA and with Darius out for some games, 7-5 or 6-6 for Gophers. The first quarter at CA looked like amateur night, as did the trick play later and punt-fielding throughout.

    Iowa at Rutgers is tonight at 7:00pm

    H's hitting at about 70% for the season so far - his long throws were beauties. Both teams will give MN a lot of trouble.

    NCAA approves single transfer portal window: How the new rule will impact college football

    They should get rid of the portal completely and restore the sitting out a year rule. Anarchy continues...

    The ordeal of no divisions

    If fans remain quiet and subservient, The B10 will go on dangling 18 teams in a meaningless string that offers little to most fans. The West Coast teams should have remained in some kind of B10 West (without that title), so we could have 14 here in two geographic divisions, as before. No matter...

    What grade would you give the coaches in the loss at Cal?

    That seems to be the case - some terrible coaching decisions in this game. Still, PJ is a 60% winner, best since pre-WWII Bierman! Better than 11 previous coaches over 75 years (12 if you include post-war Bierman). The best we can get, apparently.

    Game 3 Uniforms

    All white uniforms are always mediocre, carrying no school colors, no character or personality. Dull, dull, dull.

    Koi Perich ...

    Yes, you can hurt fielding punts - not worth the risk; same can be said of rushing.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT CAL BATTLE OF THE “GOLDENS” GOLD-OUT IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    The trick play was just insane. He also calls time outs when his team is exuding momentum on offense.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT CAL BATTLE OF THE “GOLDENS” GOLD-OUT IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    How about when the Gophers were driving in the 4th quarter and 2 running plays in a row are called on second and third down and neither could make it when we have one of the best young passers in the country, then a penalty that pushed a field goal try to 51 yards?

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT CAL BATTLE OF THE “GOLDENS” GOLD-OUT IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Why would anyone try to field a punt at or inside the 5 yard line. Didn't the Gophers do it twice tonight?

    The ordeal of no divisions

    If fans don't raise hell, we may be stuck with an 18-team "league" indefinitely. Also, send UCLA, USC, Washington, and especially, Oregon, back to the West Coast where they belong. With them gone, we'd have two 7-team divisions, based again on geography. The massive greed has led to massive cash...

    Max Shikenjanski appreciation thread

    He looked good - damps down my fears of having no QB if Drake is hurt. By the way, Kaliakmanis is hitting at 74% so far for Rutgers!

    No BTN Football in 60

    ESPN will have the Gopher-Cal game at 9:30 p.m.

    The 2025 Gophers football season will be a sucsss if?…

    If we can throw the ball again and mix running and passing as we did much of last season. If we are throwing at 50%, we'll struggle to make a bowl.

    $200: the final straw for this Gopher alum & lifelong fan

    Most of the 120 or so IA schools will never be able to pay out $20 million a year in salaries to athletes. Note that the B10 is still dangling 18 teams with no divisions, not caring at all about fans, but as greed prevails and TV brings in more money, most schools are treading water or falling...
