Correct. That’s why they’re the 1 seed. I wouldn’t pick Minnetonka in rematches

Meh it’s a horse a piece UCLA played worse tonight than they did against the gophers In many respects

Especially with Iowa losing tonight

Don’t believe gophers end up in either game

I have not seen maple grove live Hard to know how good they were because the north never crossed over with other three sections until week 8 They clearly are the favorite after their week 8 game. I personally would pick Edina and shakopee over Minnetonka. MG already crushed Edina. So I feel...

I think shakopee is the biggest challenger I picked shakopee to win it. But then picked against them tonight. They got a 17-0 lead and held on 24-17

It’s a statistical model not based on reality

I am not saying that. I am saying that some are saying that. But to rank Edina as a 2 over forest lake or anoka is purely subjective. So Edina being the 3 is fair. They beat the 2 from the south. They lost to the 1 and 2 from the west this year and the 1 from the north. They made it to the...

Maybe or maybe with less and less real football at practice kids don’t know how to roll into it and avoid the force while being tackled. Freshmen QBs used to play both ways and get hit in practice even 10 years ago. We have specialization of kids at QB and all the time playing non contact...

This is why people shouldn’t necessarily rig the playoff system so some sections are seeded higher than others. The current system put the third place team from the west in the same bracket as the first place team from the north. I thought Edina was a top 3 team in the state possibly going into...

The way they do bowls now I would be surprised if one win didn’t lock up music city or mayo bowl if the big ten ends up with 4 playoff teams.

For sure. Although I would say Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois are all top 40 teams and everyone other than Purdue is probably a top 60-70 team. The difference between 20th and 40th isn’t very much. Big ten has 4 of the top 8. (50%) 7 of the top 40. (18%) 17 of the top 70. (25%) I don’t even know...

More conference champs getting in also is good for the sport generally as it encourages smaller conferences

A win clinches a big ten winning season. It would be the 11th big ten winning season since 1970 It would be the 4th since 2019 It would be the 6th since 2014 We are fortunate to have had two really good coaches in the post Brewster era and one interim coach that did a heck of a job on the...

Co conference champs even cooler

I do wish there was a stipulation where all conference champs in the top 20’or top 25 made it. I would rather see an 12-1 Louisiana than a 10-2 or 9-3 4th place big ten school. I get why you wouldn’t put Mac champ in this year. I think auto bids for conference champs in top 25 would be really...

I had heard that, but I have now heard that no decision has been made but ADs seemed to have like the model of the schedule that was built this last two year cycle, which included relief

I have heard rumors preliminary numbers are in: Moorhead Rogers Andover Moving up Burnsville Mayo Buffalo Moving down If this is true, I would guess they slant the northwest to get teams closer to Moorhead. N- new to section R- possible relief schedule West Loses prior lake and Buffalo Gainer...

I know people hate it, But I personally like RPI I don’t like efficiency ratings. I don’t care about a predictive measure. I care more about what you have done than what you hypothetically would do. 16 team playoff. Conference champs auto in if top 25 in RPI get auto bid. I used to have a...
