    ***OFFICIAL ILLINOIS AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    The signs are there that this is going to be a longggggg afternoon. I can't believe how flat both sides of the ball are. I truly thought they learned their lesson against BG. Depressing as eff.

    ***OFFICIAL ILLINOIS AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    This is an AWEFUL showing early. They look incredibly flat. This is a guaranteed L boys. Sorry. Seen this movie before. When will we learn that you just can't get too high on a Minnesota team. EVER.

    Help Football! Become an Official

    Having been on some boards myself, this is an often overlooked aspect of the problems that are infecting youth sports. They are rife with nepotism and despotism when those who are concerned question some of the brutal decisions that can be made, particularly in the smaller sports where there...

    Just Embrace It

    There is no disputing that the Bowling Green loss was epically bad, AT THE TIME. But they did what a lot of our other sports teams in this market don't do. THEY RESPONDED despite losing their top 3 RB in the process as well! You can forgive losses like that when the team learns from them...

    Required Viewing For Gopher Fans - Fleck on the new contract

    Somebody at the Minnesota Tourism Board needs to give PJ a call! What a great ambassador for this state and University.

    Help Football! Become an Official

    As a father of two children who just completed their youth sports careers, the overwhelming issue with attracting officials is parents. It is not even close. Don't get me wrong, there are some coaches who think they are the next Bear Bryant or Scotty Bowman. But it is not even close with...

    O-line on LeCaptain Run

    Was not LeCaptain the player who received the vicious blind side block at the end of the Maryland game that enraged the players who saw it? He was down on the turf for awhile. Thankfully he was OK. Can somebody please remove the injury hex on the RB room please?

    O-line on LeCaptain Run

    He also stated that there has been another player in the RB room that he did not want to identify yet.

    Gophers Crush Maryland: Post-Game Reaction Thread

    The playcalling going into half-time WAS irresponsible and some of the stupidest I have seen. This does not mean that the rest of the game was not good and that Fleck is a horrible coach. But there simply is no defending what was done there. Fortunately the game ended the way it did and that...

    ***OFFICIAL MARYLAND AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    That missed/blocked FG was the absolute predictable result of some of the worst play-calling imaginable. Criminally negligent and not the first time this season. I seriously am questioning if Mike Sanford is not point shaving. Why are the football teams in Minnesota afraid to score...

    Official 2022 Gophers Football Recruiting Thread: Links, Tweets, Videos, Rumors

    To clarify my original post, those percentages were obviously meant to illustrate the four main "qualities" that determine an athletes success AGAINST other athletes at the college level. No D1 Power 5 football players are less than elite level athletes when compared to the normal population...

    Football is 25% god given athletic talent (measurable), 25% worth ethic, 25% competitiveness/drive and 25% luck (avoiding injuries). Only one of these is easily measured. The recruiting sites (247 is my favorite to peruse) can give you a broad based look at an overall class to gain a basic...

    Even Don Cherry is envious.

    Hole Poll: What grade would you give the Gophers coaches in big win over Nebraska?

    The point being is that the play call was completely unnecessary at that point. The O-line was playing their best game since Colorado. They had a very nice mix of pass and run and were gaining positive yards on EVERY play. That call (along with the poor decision to try a 50 yard FG) changed...

    Let's Just Talk Smack and Make Fun of Nebraska Thread

    Not a Scott Frost fan at all and do enjoy seeing him take close L's. He should also keep his mouth shut regarding how another coach leads his kids. I have plenty of criticism's of Fleck but there is no doubt that his kids do seem to really like playing for him. He has also done a good job...

    Souhan: It's still too soon to say Gophers quarterback Tanner Morgan has turned the corner

    To completely blame Morgan's issues on Morgan is wrong. We saw what can happen in the first half when the OC actually has a balanced, not so predictable game plan. Also, the O-line really played well which cannot be said for some of the earlier games. Not saying that Morgan is not...

    ***OFFICIAL NEBRASKA AT MINNESOTA, FROST V FLECK IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Game ball to the Defensive line for two huge fourth down stops including the beauty on the goal line. The D absolutely saved this game. Not perfect but damn good enough. Assist to Crawford for snagging a ridiculously poor snap and then getting off a punt inside the 20. He has been solid...

    I guess you missed this part " Still though, the rankings do give a general sense of how the overall class is doing in comparison to the other schools. This does look to be a weak recruiting year."
