I like Iowa in the game, too. Hope Michigan's defense shows up against Texas. Nebraska probably gets waxed by Utah, but you never know with the coach situation.

Meant Miami. My bad.

Tough New Year’s eve for the B1G? Nebraska a 14.5 underdog to Utah Michigan a 7.5 underdog to Texas Iowa a 5.5 underdog to Vanderbilt At least Ohio State is favored over Miami (fixed it)

USC blows 10 point lead in 4Q and loses in OT to TCU. B1G now 6-1.

With Illinois’s victory over Tennessee in the Music City Bowl, the B1G is 6-0 in bowl games. USC (with several key opt-outs) currently in a tight one with TCU. Iowa, Michigan, Nebraska and Ohio State have games tomorrow. Indiana and Oregon play on Friday. Iowa, Michigan and Indiana games are...

Right. House Settlement says Universities can share up to $20.5M in revenues with student athletes. Coyne says Gophers are allocating House Settlement cash to Football, mens' and women's basketball, and mens' hockey and women's volleyball. Supposed allocation to Football is about 75%, or at...

I’m hoping we get the UMD TE who had a breakout season; Brahmer would be frosting in the cake.

Good guess. He's from Portage, MI.

On the subject of the mass exodus at Iowa State, there are some real gems there at positions of need for the Gophers. In an earlier post, I mentioned Chase Sowell, a big WR who is rated at 93 in the portal after an 87 rating out of HS. Size and demonstrated success in P4 play. Another big riser...

Football names in the portal ... Air Noland, QB, out of South Carolina Bam Booker, Edge, out of Bowling Green Juice Vereen, TE, out of U Conn Diezel Williamson, S, out of Montana Tank Hawkins, WR, out of Florida. Other interesting names ... Samson Isreal, CB, out of Memphis (clergy if not...

As the one-and-only 2026 Transfer Portal opens on January 2nd, this chain can assemble info, gossip and quips about related goings on. Here are a few opening observations: Old Gopher, LB Tyler Stolksy, who transferred to FAU last year, is back in the portal. Good depth LB for the Gophers? He...

Are you gonna eat your fat? ...

Added Drew Wilson as a transfer out, first to announce post-Rate Bowl. Removed Anthony Smith as a question mark: he’s back!

Key words: “more complicated than need be.” In a violent, high speed contest, undue complexity can stifle performance and hang an anchor on athleticism.

Looks like GA Southern beat App State again. Good bowl win. Nice capstones to the season. Congrats to Talon!

Some comparative stats: Tanner (2019) vs. Athan vs. Brosmer vs. Drake. Tanner in 2019 is the "gold standard" because he had 2 NFL receivers, a 3rd receiver almost as good before injury, three solid RBs and a very good OL. The RPO passing scheme worked great in 2019 because of the tremendous...

Other side of the coin: Drake can make some throws that Max might not have. Both TDs to Smith in the bowl game were tremendous throws. Perfect timing and placement in tight spaces. If next year's OL gives Drake a little more time (which drop back passers need to attain maximum value) I think he...

The left tackle had great stats and was a freshman All-American. Better than Ersery at the same stage of development. Not worried about left tackle ... or left guard.

Solid B. Needs to become more mobile. Work on the legs. Also needs to see the field a tad better. Not always seeing wide open receivers. But he made a LOT of clutch throws. Won some games for us. Well above average for a RS FR, and I suspect next year iwill be better.

Agree. I would fire the STs coordinator first. Once we took the lead, why didn’t we kick it deep in the endzone (as we normally do)? Denanberg certainly has the leg. Why did we kick to the Lobo’s superstar kick returner? Nobody came near to touching him on the return. That run back was the only...
