    Wisconsin Opens at #21 in the USA Today Coaches Poll

    As I wrote, the proof of the transfers is their game-time performances.

    Gopher Starting 22 for 2000 to present!

    I would argue that the ypc for MB3 shows that he was the better RB. How does Maroney fare vs Mo? I thought he had more talent than Mo or MB3

    Wisconsin Opens at #21 in the USA Today Coaches Poll

    From what I have been able to read in The Athletic about the WI fall camp, that through the portal WI has loaded up at their prior weaknesses at QB, WR, and CBs. And Fickell has a great reputation. Will any of this matter when the games begin? Only time will tell.

    Gopher Starting 22 for 2000 to present!

    Weber, until he was ruined by the new QB coaches was the best QB. Morgan is not even close. Maroney and Barber were clearly better than Mo.

    SI: Bulletin board material for Gophers quarterback Athan Kaliakmanis

    I watched the MN/WI game again recently and K has a stronger arm than Morgan and is more mobile than Morgan. I think he will be functional but not necessarily a game-changer by himself. But let us ignore these ridiculous polls and opinions until the games actually are played. My opinion from...

    Do MN really suck that bad?

    If you look at the table showing the academic rankings, the most logical way to look at them is to put the schools in groups where the numbers are very close to one another. NW is by itself, MI, USC, and UCLA next WA, ILL, and WI next. MN would be in the next group. So NW 1 MI could claim to be...

    Will have to have divisions in B10

    The latest chatter is that there will be a ten-conference game schedule. This will make for a better experience for season ticket holders and more TV interest for the carriers paying the bills. It seems divisions are not going to happen.

    Schedule and Predictions

    Now that the Covid extra years are behind us it is very difficult to predict this year's outcomes in college FB based on the performances of last year. Added to the uncertainty of untried players are the portal and the new coaches in the West. If MN has a winning conference record and has also...

    Do MN really suck that bad?

    OR is a wholly subsidized entity of a large shoe company. And their BB court makes my eyes bleed.

    Breaking from the Athletic: Big 10 to invite Washington and Oregon

    For the division fanatics, there are not going to be divisions. The chatter on the BTN is that there will be 10 FB conference games and the BIG ADs are going to be asking their FB and BB coaches what are your plans to deal with the markedly increased level of competition. This is particularly...

    What News from Fall Camp?

    In The Athletic, the Wisconsin beat writer, Temple, has a daily update. Fickell seems to think this is a great way to introduce fans to the changes he initiated. Why does not PJ do the same thing?

    All Things Gophers at North Carolina Road Game Thread (Tips for Flights, Hotels, Bars, Restaurants, Game Tickets & More)

    I went to multiple board meetings in Chapel Hill and found it to be quite a nice city in every way. Every now and then we were put up at the guest house on the Duke golf course which looked very nice but I never had a chance to play.

    Nice start for new no-nonsense Nebraska

    OSU and Oregon IG. What does it mean?

    The BIG TV contracts were not written to include any new schools. So until they expire or are close to expiring chatter about adding schools is just chatter to fill the time until the season starts.

    Anonymous Players and Staff make unsubstantiated allegations

    Personally, PJ makes my teeth itch. But because of Covid, redshirting, and injury years, he has players staying with his program for six to seven years so it seems most of the players like or tolerate his schtick. All of this will be forgotten when the fall camp begins and the season starts.

    Gophers to play Iowa on NBC

    I am fine with the games being on NBC but not fine for games on that dreadful Peacock APP.

    Anonymous Players and Staff make unsubstantiated allegations

    Mao had his Little Red Book of his sayings that were required reading by the population of China. Fleck has his "FleckBook" which seems to be required reading by the team. Is that where the similarity ends? If there were fire under the smoke it would have been evident by now in his recruiting...
