Exactly. It baffles me how anyone here can make fun of Brian Ferentz. I believe he's undefeated against the Gophers. In 2021, both Tanner Morgan and Spencer Petras threw 10 TD's and had 9 int's. In 2022 Tanner Morgan had 9 TD's to Spencer Petras 5 and they both threw 5 picks...however Petras...

Underrated moment in the Redding gaffe: If you watch him field the punt, one of his feet ends up just touching the outline of the NORTHWESTERN in the end zone. The other Gopher down there facing Redding has his hands out in the LeBron/JR Smith meme and Redding briefly looks back at his heel. He...

I see 3 types of coping most often from Gopher fans 1. The type that believe the Gophers can't/won't ever compete for anything relevant so the results don't matter and/or don't surprise them. They have reasons in their head as to why Minnesota can't meet or exceed what Iowa or Wisconsin have...

Kirk not getting up and spiking the ball as a 35 year old veteran is peak Kirk. It's like him lining up over the guard against San Francisco or his dumb sneak attempt when KOC was going to call a timeout against Buffalo (Netflix captures this). Worst moment for me was when Devon Williams (and...

If you read the notes from PJ's presser today, it's pretty clear we're in line for more of the same. He said he didn't consider going for it on 4th and 3 at the end of the 4th quarter. He seemed to blame the 3rd down failure on Darius Taylor bouncing it too far outside: "Best play call...

He's the same guy, he's always been. I'd feel more hopeful about the future if I agreed that he lost something. I see a guy who is either unwilling or unable to adapt past a strategy that is largely to play risk averse and hope your opponent makes some mistakes.

We have THREE losses just against Northwestern that are worse than any loss my Iowa friends have ever experienced. 2000: Northwestern beats Minnesota on a Hail Mary 2008: Northwestern beats Minnesota on a Pick 6 as time expires 2023: Northwestern beats Minnesota after being down 31-10 in the...

There has been at least one horrible loss every year now for 4 years. The type of loss that should happen once every 5 years at most...and in the case of Bowling Green something that many programs have never experienced in my lifetime (one of the 30 biggest point spread losses in 40 years)...

Possibly program altering.

I've been really surprised about the lack of involvement of Elijah Spencer. Just looked it up and he had 943 yards and 9 td's last year for Charlotte including 4 for 98 against Maryland and 5 for 59 and a TD against South Carolina so it's not like he was only productive in his small conference...

They took a picture after the event with the kid who won the television. From what I could tell from the photos online, I might take the under on 50 kids in attendance for free pizza, a chance to win a television, etc. Not blaming anyone here, as you have to try, its just a sad situation.

It's hard to know what the biggest culprit is for the passing game's downfall. I do think it's become a chicken or the egg issue as the failures in the passing game have corresponded with Minnesota having a realy hard time recruiting WR's and especially QB's in the past couple of cycles. When...

I'd rather it be Jenkins. "The one of us" narrative could get him the job if he gets 4-5 B1G wins. I am not sure I've ever seen a schedule like this from a Big Ten team. From formerlybis excellent breakdown 8 and perhaps 9 of these games appear destined for Quad 4 with likely zero Quad 1...

The theory of Ben Johnson from those that even moderately supported his hiring was that he would clean up on in state recruiting. He'd never coached a game, he'd never been part of a winning program, his supposed deep connections to recruiting Minnesota were his selling point. I hate when...

For those that haven't read the Athletic article, Feldman lists 4 power 5 coaches who will get considertion in Duke coach Mike Elko, Kansas coach Lance Leipold, Kansas State coach Chris Klineman, and Minnesota coach P.J. Fleck. Without stealing his entire article, by what he says about each...

I am not sure we will ever know the full story here. I don't know if any of you read Mel Tucker's version of events in the ESPN story from last week, but it paints a different picture. I find it odd that a call where one sided phone sex was occurring lasted for 30 minutes. I also find it odd...

Interesting question. I don't think PJ takes the Minnesota job if we were somehow in the B1G East. So much of the appeal was the ability to win a division without having to beat Michigan/Ohio State. I think Minnesota would be churning through coaches with resumes like Jerry Kill, or the guys...

This just all seems like nonsense to me. I am pretty sure if one of the analytical sites looked at this situation it would be a clear "go for it". Fleck: "You hope for a turnover, three, and out , use the timeouts" 1. You kind of need two three and outs at this point if you don't get a...

As long as they expect to win a majority of those marquee games, I am all for it.

I'll start with the defense. The first TD we somehow allowed a receiver to get behind the defense while rushing 3. That absolutely cannot happend. The second TD was basically given to the Tar Heels as nobody on the defense knew what they were doing and we allowed a guy to run completely freen...
