I just don't get why many of you follow the Gophers when you seem so constantly upset with them. I'll never get it, but to each their own. They are just entertainment for me and no result will change my life. In any case, here's what I liked about yesterday: College football is back and...

I was very concerned with Max's play early, but impressed with it late. Looked like a classic case of first game nerves playing at a higher level to me. He tried to do too much running around and fumbled on an aggressive scramble up the middle for good yards. He really seemed to lay it all...

I don’t like speculating and have to assume the kickers preference was a part of, but not the only thing, determining that play call. Most of the people on here seem fine with just running it for a couple yards and kicking it and just disagree with the direction of the run. I disagree and...

Penn State is a 50/50 game? We are very unlikely to win that game. They are athletically at least a tier above us and will annually be in the 12-team college football playoff mix. We have a better chance against Michigan because of how many good players they lost and they have a new coaching...

I only go to a few games per year so have to admit that I have not experienced a sweltering early fall game yet, but put me in the sunny side camp. It's just beautiful being on the sunny side when all the conditions are right and it really is nice later in the year. It makes the whole...

You were actually being sarcastic? I totally thought you were just another Gopherholer yelling at the clouds!

I agree PJ has done a good job with the portal, but these numbers can be misleading. Ohio State has 22 exits and only 7 additions, but take a look at those additions! They plucked probably the best college safety in the nation from Alabama, the top rated quarterback recruit from 2023 and a few...

Losing a power 4 conference championship game is really going to hurt, right? You play one extra, probably very intense and physical game, without a bye and then get to play a rested Notre Dame or some other team that might not have played in their championship? Now, a lot of those 5-12 slots...

Actually, it's Bde Maka Ska which means "White Earth Lake". https://www.minneapolisparks.org/news/2018/01/29/lake_calhoun_officially_recognized_as_bde_maka_ska/#:~:text=Bde%20Maka%20Ska%20is%20now,oral%20history%20for%20many%20years. That still seems a little risky to me. I think they should...

I see both positive and negative potential outcomes to the season, but see no reason to be pessimistic. It would just put me in a sour mood about something in which I have no control. To quote Rudolf Abel in Bridge of Spies in one of my favorite movie lines (and movies) of all time, "Would it...

I clicked on this post because I thought it was an opportunity for some funny one-liners by the GH community and wasn't disappointed. Although, sometimes I don't get the jokes and I'm too embarrassed to ask.:p There are some smart, creative people on here...and then there's the rest of us.

Please remind me never to get into a legal argument with 2nd Degree Gopher because I will lose...

Lefties and righties insulting each other on a sports forum takes the cake. No one is changing anyone's mind and the other side just thinks you're an idiot. Of course, I'm sure you don't mind if complete morons think you're an idiot. Am I right? I guess this IS sport for some of you!:p And...

Wasn't this terrible timing to lose and try to replace a coach for UCLA? All the usual churn at the end of the season is pretty much complete and the best guys are off the table. It seems likely their options were limited so they went with continuity to try to minimize transfers (he seems...

I was actually surprised to see that a lot of national sites had PJ right at the top of the list of possible coaches for UCLA. I thought this below description from The Sporting News put things into perspective quite well. I think PJ is considered a good candidate for good, but not great, P5...

We're going to find out in Washington...oh wait...the coach just bailed for a huge payday with Alabama! Smart!!! We definitely found out with the New England Patriots. Other recent examples?

GophersInIowa, how long could you wear that shirt in Iowa before you were assaulted?

How much of what the 49ers do is just based on their personnel? I haven't watched a complete NFL game in some time, but I did watch the game highlights for the recent 49ers win and George Kiddle, at tight end, looked like he was almost unstoppable. What an athlete! Reminded me of Rob...

Good to hear because he'd be crazy not to leave if offered the job. There aren't many jobs better than a B1G job, but there are better jobs in the B1G and Michigan is obviously one of them.

I'm not sure we should, but we certainly can. We are basically equal to them for the 2024 class. As I posted in comment #23: 3) Our average player rating of 87.52 puts us 10th out of 18 teams in the B1G, but basically tied with Iowa (they are 9th). Again, this is pretty good for us...
