    QB Max Brosmer of New Hampshire commits to the Gophers

    Do we know that Kramer will QB the bowl?

    College Football is Dead

    You are right - it's pay for play with all players free agents, as PJ said, and with no salary caps. Total anarchy, totally unfair. The Court, as it often does, tries to play noblesse oblige, by reaching down to liberate the little aggrieved people (remember Madalyn Murray O'Hair?), so the...

    GOPHERS IN QUICK LANE BOWL VS BOWLING GREEN

    Definitely - revenge on Bowling Green - had to happen.

    Playoff could have used 8 teams this year

    GA should be in - a travesty to keep it out. FL State fans screaming, and how about Ohio St, lost only to #1 Michigan by 6 pts? Eight would have accommodated them all, plus TX and Oregon. But next year's arrangement looks weird: 12 teams that include the Power 5 champions whatever their rank or...

    What bowl do you predict Gophers will be in?

    Probably Detroit, vs. Miami of Ohio, the MAC winner.

    Drake Lindsey ahead of tonight’s State Championship game: Let’s gooooo!! RTB!!!

    PJ is doing his best to land him- but he needs to hire an OC/QB coach and to seriously look to a different offensive philosophy in which every play does not take the long count, always going for TOP. So refreshing to see the great playoff teams now on TV getting their plays off quickly.

    Darius Taylor is back next season!

    He does ID himself as "professional athlete" on his Twitter account. I suppose they are all professional these days - at the college level.

    Gophers Football needs major help

    All true, but what makes it more than a hiccup is the portal and NIL. They bode ill for future years, especially at a time when the 4 teams from the Pac-12 coming in. Hard to be an optimist.

    Turn on Liberty right now to see a real CFB offense

    Yes, you can see the old Bierman films era that cut-blocking was most of the blocking.

    Who will QB in the bowl game?

    Cole? Nobody from the portal. Sounds like a real problem. Will PJ keep it a secret until game time?

    How would you fix NIL/Portal if you ran the NCAA

    Some good thoughts Some good thoughts, but I'd simplify it - sit out a year, period. As to NIL, drive a stake through its heart by revisiting the Supreme Court, hopefully to ban any payment to college athletes other than scholarships.

    Zach Evans to Enter the Portal

    Oh, no. If we lose Taylor, too, it's a disaster. Too man jumping ship - we need some newcomers who want to build for the new era of NIL and never-ending transfers. Some keepers.

    Let's Roll Tide

    Seems unfair that Ohio State would drop so far after a 6 pt loss to powerhouse Michigan. They are now out of the final four.

    Matt Rhule: "A good QB in the portal costs $1 million, $1.5, 2 million" in NIL.

    This is unsustainable and obviously a calamity for college football. Changes will have to be made. NY Times said that a star tackle at Mich St. was paid $850,000 to keep him from entering the portal.

    Dragan Kesich joins Tyler Nubin as first team all conference

    Jackson makes second team, along with Ersery. Honorable mention for Justin Walley, Carroll, Boe, Spann-Ford and Darius Taylor.

    Quarterbacks in the Transfer Portal

    It will be a chore, but bringing the issue back to the Court is vital - the justices had no idea of the consequences of their voting.

    Alex Kaliakmanis: Trying very hard not to comment on a program that our family decided to cut ties with.

    There was a shrewd comment here that Ak's slinging sidearm passing style made him throw the ball too hard - that he didn't have the soft touch, as for a screen pass, a quick pass to a running back. That should have been coached out of him somewhere along the line, but wasn't. Yet there was a lot...

    Shatel: Why I'm glad Nebraska didn't qualify for a bowl game off APR like Minnesota

    Nebraska has spent a small fortune on the football complex in recent years (stadium, locker room that a pro team could use) and now they are going to spend half a $billion on more improvements. They shouldn't have trouble pulling in NIL funds - the only game in town. Seven years without a...
