    Schiano Gives Injury Update

    High-quality depth is the one of the great advantages that helmet schools have over the rest of the pack. The season is long, key players get nicked up or injured; next man up can be a chancy proposition for many teams.

    Is Rutgers a Possible Trap Game?

    I was responding to another poster who mentioned playoffs, presumably to make the point, I guess, that you can’t have a trap game—aren’t good enough—unless you are in the hunt for a playoff spot. 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Schiano Gives Injury Update

    PJ might be on the Schiano coaching tree, but he differs in one big respect: updating the press and fans on injury status. Maybe Schiano's just getting his excuses ready in case things don't go well. AK is healthy ...

    Is Rutgers a Possible Trap Game?

    You may well be right in thinking this is still a 50/50 game. Vegas just set the betting line at Gophers by 5.5 points. Heck, we were favored against a ranked and heathy Illinois team by 3.0 points. So, based primarily, I assume, on the prowess of Rutgers running game, and the possibility that...

    Post Game Thread: Gophers BEAT Bielema!!! Win 4 Straight!!

    Not sure how Kerry is against the pass, but, man, against the run he is a heat-seeking missile. Adds 15 lbs and becomes our next Tyrone Carter?

    Post Game Thread: Gophers BEAT Bielema!!! Win 4 Straight!!

    Tim Bando needs to be evaluated by medical personnel. Maybe placed in the concussion protocol.

    Is Rutgers a Possible Trap Game?

    IMHO, the way we are playing now versus the way Rutgers is playing now removes it from the 50/50 category (at least for me). It was a 50/50 game before the season. It was 50/50 (maybe worse for us) after the Iowa game. But it isn't 50/50 now, again in IMHO. It is a game we should win if we keep...

    Is Taylor injured?

    If we are handling Rutgers well, might make sense to limit DT's snaps. Give Majors, Mangham and Bangura some meaningful run; maybe even true FR Iboji. After Rutgers, DT get two weeks full rest and recovery period (2nd bye) before the Penn State home game, in which, if healthy, he could be a...

    Kaleb Johnson is Mo Ibrahim only more rangy and with breakaway speed. Best RB in B1G by a long shot.

    Corn Nation on Nebbie Loss to UCLA

    Corn Nation guy is back in despair mode as Cornhuskers lose, at home, to UCLA. Love this guy. Sorry, but the You Tube video (version I saw) contains a short political commercial. 🤷🏼‍♂️

    With its 42-10 win over the Badgers, Iowa has now scored 40+ points in four games this year. I wish they’d bring back Brian Ferentz!

    Is Rutgers a Possible Trap Game?

    There are a lot of reasons for PJ, and our OC and DC to be fully ready for Rutgers. Same is true for Schiano and his Gopher alums at OC and DC. And there is the AK thing. Rutgers will be coming off the bye, with two weeks to prepare and get healthy. And the Gophs, on a roll, might be looking...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT ILLINOIS IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    FG is right call. Now Illinois needs 8 points to tie, not win. Gophs need one more stop. Haven’t had a pick today …
