Playing Oklahoma would be at least a big name opponent even though they seem to be down this season in the SEC.

So, the USC, UCLA, and Maryland wins didn't do anything for you? I know the UCLA win margin wasn't that impressive but, at the time, that was only something like the 3rd win in 13 attempts in the conference by a team traveling 2 or more time zones.

All three of our wins against conference teams have been precious this season but winning this one would be the most precious to date.

I feel the same way. While I'm reasonably confident that this year's team can surpass last year's team, a 22-9 regular season is a tough nut to crack. The most successful regular season Gopher team this century was the 2017 team that finished the regular season at 23-8. In accomplishing that...

Yes, but his backup, Pribula, played very well down the stretch against Wisconsin. Once he got a few reps, he was a true dual threat.

The team was poised to break the Burt curse until the last 46 seconds of the game last season when they hit a long bomb. If we're in that situation again, I trust this defense to avoid that outcome.

Both Sagarin and Sports Reference list UCLA as having the toughest schedule in the conference so far. In fact, both rating services list UCLA as having the toughest schedule in the country to this point.

Thanks for assembling this data! Also, after having only one 70%+ game completion percentage in the first 5 games (against Rhode Island), Max has had topped that percentage three games in a row. A fun fact from yesterday's game ----- The Gophers had 9 passes defended (where the defender gets...

At this point, I wouldn't be 100% confident that Fleck wouldn't choose a similar recruiting move this offseason by getting another accomplished and highly experienced QB as a grad transfer. Fleck has recruited over existing players before. Max has had a quick learning curve and even his worst...

I think PJ may have passed through that phase earlier this season and realized that the team was going to have to live or die by the passing game. The running game worked well against USC but it's been a struggle against the other power conference teams. Tonight it started to click later in...

I believe he came from VA Tech but I don't think he actually played much, if at all, there. Perfect guy to come in for the last series.

That's entirely possible since, according to the website, this tournament takes place from March 31st until April 6th. The NCAA tournament championship game takes place on April 7th. Of course, people hitting the portal do have a few weeks after that to enter.

I can't see this team scoring 38 points against another conference team (except maybe Purdue who we don't play). I can see this team limiting Maryland to 20 though.

Thanks! I didn't know about the CBC tournament. I just looked at their website and the Big 12 apparently is involved too.

I like that they announced the use of a composite average ranking for selection using multiple indexes instead of a single index. I'm uncertain what this passage means because of the bolded word: In addition to the exempt teams, regular-season conference champions that are not otherwise...

I'd say that they're decent against the run, not the best, but maybe a little better than us. Given how anemic our rushing attack has been against conference teams (except USC), they'll probably limit our yards. They're also not so great at running the ball. This is a matchup of their...

I'm sure it gave them a boost but I'm not so sure about momentum.

Yes, the defense did play well against UCLA but the evidence so far is that Maryland is a better offensive team than them so I hope we're not in another 10 point hole at the half because the offense hasn't scored.

Something was posted here a few weeks ago indicating that Brosmer may have had something to do with the design to increase the use of the running backs in the passing game. Last year running backs caught 27 passes in 13 games. This year they've caught 47 passes in 7 games.
