At the time of his hire, I likened him a bit to Bo Ryan although Bo was almost a decade younger when he started at Wisconsin. Both guys were very successful at lower levels in their careers and didn't get their chance at the big leagues until they were pretty mature. Bo made the most of his...

The increase takes effect next season from what I have read.

Well, I think some of them should be higher profile than they are. I also think some people are giving too much weight to sportswriters. If you rank professions by analytical ability, my guess is that sportswriters would be pretty far down the list.

Or force them into fewer points than us!

One thing I've noticed is that Fleck has taken only one offensive lineman from the transfer portal since Chuck Filiaga committed in 2022. He took none in 2023 and only the massive guy from UTEP in 2024. So, we seem to be relying almost completely on internal development for these positions...

Yep, knocked momentarily unconscious. No targeting, no foul, and to add insult to injury, a turnover with possession to Ohio State.

Or Michael Brown Stephens in the Ohio State game three years ago. To my mind, that one is still the worst.

Last season, Gopher running backs caught 27 passes over 13 games. This season, Gopher running backs have caught 34 passes over 5 games.

As you've written, we have played two very good defenders against the run so we'll see how it goes when we move on from those teams. USC is ranked #16 in the league in rushing defense giving up 5 yards per carry. Having said that, it's apparent after 5 games that we don't have the same kind of...

Oh, you mean it wouldn't occur to you to rush the field and tear down a goal post on the opponent's home field after a win? Me either.

I don't know about dumbest but likely one of the worst behaved.

Well, come to think of it, I could see a knucklehead like you wearing a t shirt like that.

I have wondered whether the Michigan game could be a learning experience and a turning point for going more up tempo in the future.

That's why I can handle the OTB only in small doses.

I'm glad he said that the goal is building upon 19 wins. That means produce more than 19 wins. No going backwards or running in place.

Yes, that's pretty much what Johnson said in the video. I believe this is the last hurrah for eight players on the team.

Hmmmm.......no!

Should we? Absolutely not! Minnesota has a cosmopolitan culture, the highest median household income in the Midwest, and is ranked 4th nationally in educational attainment by US News. Large numbers of people wearing t shirts protesting a loss in a football game come from states that have...

Yes, but in fairness the defense played about as well as we could expect going into the game. They held Michigan to 241 yards and I think two of their touchdowns were on short fields. They also got a turnover that led to our first touchdown. It was the offense that had too many poor...

I guess the thing that makes me angriest about that offsides call was this was a very rare opportunity to see a successfully executed onside kick and it was nullified.
