Nick Saban to MN, Fleck out?

If it can be done, the margin for error is non-existent. Need to hold a 14 pt lead in 2014. Can’t drop the ball at Iowa in 2019. Can’t have the ball bounce off hands in the end zone at Purdue in 2022. Can’t have the guy who never fumbles fumble against Iowa.

Good results. Like the program. Want better yet.

Could be worse, Iowa wishes Rutgers would poach their OC.

Gophers should offer Leonhard.

Great defense doesn’t get noticed as much as offense. The B1G West has multiple teams with very good defense and this year maybe stronger than usual with Illinois and Purdue being improved. Michigan is clearly in a different league, but their lowest point games came against Illinois and Iowa...

I’d prefer to limit a Rushmore to those who achieved a U of MN degree. Hard to figure out if Nagurski received a degree, he gets a spot if so. Same for Bruce Smith, he was considered a senior when he won the Heisman but not sure if a graduate. If so, Gophers’ only Heisman makes it...

Like the results of that 12 man defense. Almost pulled that off. PJ’s teams don’t try the cheating route much. Gophers seemed to have a problem tackling, they would lay a shoulder but not wrap up. Maybe that was the field condition.

Hope they put the trophy next to the broken chair at next year’s State Fair.

Probably wouldn’t expect the final score if you saw Syracuse with 477 yards to Gophers 217 and 8 more minutes of possession. Checked all the boxes though with win, Mo with records, Morgan getting a nice final effort, see new stars like Bryson.

Good catch. Sports-Reference.com doesn’t and therefore already has Mo as the leader. The target being shared in Randy’s article does include Darrell’s Bowl game. https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/schools/minnesota/rushing.html

Does it make sense that Thompson does not get credit for 136 yards in the 1986 Liberty Bowl but Mo gets credit for his multiple bowl games? Might be nice if Mo got 195 yards so we don’t need an asterisk. Glad I got to watch both of them.

Agree - noting the TE exclusion.

B1G hates the Gophers.

But a selling point is that Jack won’t be there.

LSU and Clemson losing, increases chance OSU may back into playoff. Good chance OSU makes it if USC or TCU were to lose their conference championship game. Penn St should be up to 10th and in NY6 with Oregon and Clemson losing.

Hate that the transfer portal is the go to solution. Wrong message. I’ll take one Mo, one David Cobb over a 1000 Irving’s.

In a game dominated by money, it’s Mo, Tanner, and the many team players who keep the game watchable. Thank you Mo for representing the Maroon and Gold and contributing so much to the Gopher team.

They lost because they don’t know how to defend tight ends. Not sure that is PJ, seems an Achilles heel for Rossi’s defense. Tight ends seem to wear invisibility cloaks to the Gophers.

Keep the core very warm - your extremities do better. Avoid cotton on the inner layer - has tendency to hold moisture and make you colder with time. At the Viking- Seahawk game a couple guys next to us brought pink foam to stand on - they weren’t tough enough for the second half so left and...
