    Post Game Thread: Gophers Have Massive Meltdown Again, Fall to 0-10 to Bielema, Fail Again With BTW In Grasp

    Lol, whoever writes these thread titles needs to take a Xanax or something.

    End of the Kirk Ferentz Era Too?

    I actually do see where Kirk is coming from, he's been on the job for 25 years, outside mettling is uncalled for when you see his track record. Iowa is still firmly in the conversation every year. The Big Ten has gotten incredibly defense oriented over the last 5-10 years, it's not like he's got...

    Iowa fan appeals “fair catch” to World Series tv viewers

    Iowa fans complaining about refs is not surprising. Iowa fans being able to afford really good World Series seats is surprising.

    B1G Match 12: Gophers Visit Wisconsin

    To hang around with a team as defensively strong as Wisconsin, you need a developed middle attack. 1 kill on 12 attempts is just, bad. The middle attack has been missing for several seasons now, under different coaching staffs. It's probably a setting issue, I think Mel is a fantastic all...

    Itll happen. Wonder where the gophers end up?

    The top teams split off, certain major schools that aren't used to losing suddenly never have seasons over .500 anymore and lose their allure. The teams in the bottom/middle rekindle regional rivalries and the pageantry related to college football and draw all the crowds. The top league is left...

    Gopher Soccer 2023

    Coach Chastain is actually recruiting quite well, give her a few more years to see what she does with her own players. They need to get back to scoring goals, that's all that matters in women's soccer. Any team in in a major conference with a moderate level of athleticism and organization can...

    The NCAA has opened an investigation into No. 2 Michigan over possible rule-breaking around in-person scouting of opponents

    There is too much money in college football. Well, there has been too much money in college football for a long time, but it's getting more blatant. Whenever there's too much money in something, it attracts greed and bad actors. The NCAA will slap Michigan on the wrist, they're greedy too...

    MN Daily: Errors Drop Gophers from Rankings

    CC was well known as one of the best passing Liberos. Murr is a defensive libero, she flies around digging but her passing is not nearly as precise. Wenaas is gone, she was also known as a great passer and had a very strong game mentally. Booth ran the slide a lot, which opens the offense up...

    B1G Match 8: Gophers Host Northwestern (10-15-23)

    Grote is the only pin hitter on the team with a short memory. KCook didn't have a lot of choices during the long Northwestern run, but he could have swapped Grote in for Hanson to give them a different backrow hitting option. Sangiacomo was keyed in on Landfair/Wucherer in serve receive and hit...

    B1G Match 5: Gophers Visit Maryland (10-6-23)

    Landfair is not struggling because she's playing back row, she played back row last year and was First Team All American.

    B1G Match 5: Gophers Visit Maryland (10-6-23)

    All of our expectations for this season were based off of the assumption that if a match goes 5 sets, Landfair has 20-30 kills. She had 9. Something is not well with her, whether it's physical or mental, we do not know. The second piece of the puzzle is that KCook wants to get away from low...

    Las Vegas Raiders pledge $1,000,000 to UNLV NIL Fund

    I work in finance, I stare at numbers and spreadsheets and currencies all week. You know what I don't want from my sports? Numbers and spreadsheets and currencies. I find myself looking for other outlets more and more. Minnesotans don't throw their entire self worth behind a college sports...

    Is This the Season PJ Fleck Beats Iowa?

    Ferentz doesn't like to pay for risks, so he generally doesn't take them. The slow, low-risk, plodding way that has been PJ's identity at Minnesota, doesn't make teams pay for risks (see the Cajuns turnover on downs inside their own territory that ended with the Gophers punting 3 plays later)...
