    What grade would you give Gophers coaches in OSU game?

    Vanilla offense, as usual. AK can't move the team. Almost all the running backs are hurt. No imagination in play-calling. Remember how Paddock came off the bench for Illinois and sparked the team. He's been starting ever since, almost beat Iowa today. QB is the key position and for decades we...

    Cole Kramer should have started the second half. Gophers will be blown out this half. Four first downs in first half - pathetic.

    Defense has kept the Gophers in the game first half, but offense has only first downs. But we won the TOP!

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT OHIO STATE, LET'S SHOCK THE WORLD IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Athan has 42 yards passing so far. His 45% completion for the year is unacceptable in the B10. He should be a reserve behind a veteran QB picked up from the portal. Cole, who was more accurate and consistent in the Spring Game, can't get in no matter how awful the passing game. PJ is so...

    Who’s worse than the Gophers with 2 games left in the entire Big Ten?

    Looks like a lot of teams will end up 6-6. What will that mean for bowls?

    SI: Gophers' PJ Fleck: Without NIL money, we can't keep team intact

    I fear you are correct. As PJ said, free agency with no salary caps is basically what we have. Combine that with the terrible new transfer portal and you have a recipe for failure for most middling teams. The situation cries out for reform both for the sake of fairness and for recovering the...

    The Fleck staring into space look

    Yes that was a signal to every players on both teams and every viewer on TV or in the stadium that he had given up. Can't believe he did that. Note how the team fell apart after that.

    Fleck prediction

    PJ's problem is recruiting. This team has little depth, weak at QB, lots of injuries. Recruiting is something PJ could do something about if he threw all his ideas, passion, energy into it. Or he could hire a recruiter or recruiters. Better players would make a huge difference, especially in...

    Post Game Thread: Minnesota Gives Up 600 Yards and 49 Points to Purdue

    Four of the five Gopher losses have been demoralizing: Northwestern, Michigan, Illinois and Purdue. In each, defense was the main problem - it collapsed in the second half each time. Today the Gopher defense looked gassed near the end, slow, weak, being run over by ball carriers they could have...

    I wish we could have seen Cole get some time this season, just for comparison.

    Why, why would you go for a field goal down three touchdowns? That is a signal to everyone in the stadium that you've given up.

    Athan 13 of 32. Also, why are our safeties 15 yards behind enemy receivers? This is happening regularly now.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT PURDUE BOUNCE BACK GAME IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Gophers being clobbered by a 2-7 team that is outplaying them on both offense and defense. Gophers have to beat Wisconsin to make a bowl. This has been a very bad season.
