The schedule next year seems substantially more daunting. 5 of last seven on the road, including games at Illinois, Neb, MSU, PSU, and WI. Would be thrilled to see the Gophs maintain strong trajectory but given the program’s patterns over the past few decades, I would expect a strong start with...

This is it. The B1G west is one of the worst conferences in football, and this was a down year for the division even by that standard. There was an opportunity this year that has been missed. A component of that opportunity is beating your rivals, who are also having a down year. We bungled the...

Leidner was a terrible runner. We ran him a lot but he was not good at it. He ran like a 5.0 40 At the combine. Molasses.

Lol absolutely not.

It is bonkers just how badly the Gophs have gotten their asses absolutely kicked by our main rivals over the last two decades. Just brutal.

That they do nothing is inaccurate. Whether they should be enforced at games is debatable, but it is not a big deal. If you have a sincere issue with masks, just don't come to the games then man.

Bucko in space off the catch is a threat. He can 1-cut a swing pass a way the other two cannot. Still like the other two also. Cant imagine another QB would be as slow as Leidner. And if that is the strategy then the results will be the same - butts kicked every year by Iowa, WI, and any helmet...

Don't agree. He was equivalent or more so in hucksterism as Fleck. His gee whiz charlie brown good ole' Jer shtick was transparent. And then he played an even more boring brand of football, which is bonkers that that is even possible. Still rooted to succeed because Gophers but his likability...

MN - 16 PU - 14

For so long, the identity of the program has tried to be running the football, and we called plays accordingly. It is completely intuitive then that defenses would start to bet on the run, and play heavy in the box. The response to that HAS to be passing the football, though our QBs, OL, and...

The Kill/Claeys/Leidner term was a disaster. Few if any meaningful wins and extremely boring and often sloppy football. PJ is a bit of a ham but at least it comes to him honestly. Kill/Claeys presented as aw shucks Charlie Brown shuffle footed good ole boys that, when shown, were actually petty...

I am fine losing a random game to a MAC program if we were consistently beating rivals and appearing in championship games. But this program does not do that, and it finds ways to lose games it should win. I don’t know man - I agree that there are still winnable games and other teams also have...

COs offense also poor. The fact they have a mobile QB is my biggest fear. MN - 23 CO - 16

It has worked and it has failed. It is very very predictable and is less effective against B1G opponents than non-con. At least the way we’ve used it. Is the wildcat more effective than just running out a jumbo package with Morgan under center? I don’t know but the current iteration of the...

I don't know why Kill/Claeys are in discussion but, despite 8-9 wins, the teams they coached never seemed dangerous (and often seemed incompetent), and that played out by never beating our rivals and by never beating a team that finished the season ranked. Their tenure was not successful. The...

I don’t think this is accurate. The drop from Ibrahim to Potts/Wiley is substantial. what would have been 4 yard runs will be 2 yard runs and that is a major impact for an offense that seems like it will need to rely on consistent drives as opposed to explosive plays.

Our linebackers are a general weakness against any competition, but we knew that coming into the season. But the DLine play was abysmal and worse than expected. OSU or not you have to generate more QB pressure than that. Really bad. I’m hopeful some things click and the DLine is able to dial it...

Lived in Louisville for 2.5 years (right outside Boulder) and in Denver for 4. If you want a casual gameday experience, stay closer than Denver just to make travel easier. But Boulder is not that cool. Life here is crowded, and that includes not just the streets but the major trails like...

NW (Kellogg), Michigan (Ross), Indiana (Kelley), and WI are the only B1G comparable business schools, and even then I would put Carlson above all but Kellogg and Ross. This is because outside of a top-10 school, there is a lot of economic regionalism that drives student success. MNs economy...
