What was the change you were expecting? AK was going to throw 30 times in this game and we were going to start off pass happy in his first start? I didn't expect that at all. I totally expected what we got last night. PJ was hoping our defense could keep us close and we'd eventually wear down...

The game plan for Illinois with Tanner coming off their first loss to Purdue doesn't mean it would have been the same if Tanner was QB'ing against PSU. The fact AK was the QB at Penn State probably played into the idea to again shorten the game and try to minimize AK's mistakes early in his...

Oh, yeh. I agree with that. My guess ion that was two things. 1. They were going to ensure Mo got his 100 yards last night no matter what. I predicted 30 carries for Mo coming in and that's what he got. 2. Let's keep the training wheels on AK even though he AK says he's ready so we limit his...

This reminds me a bit of 2018. During 2018 we had some rough defensive stretches and we wondered if we had a massive lack of talent. We didn't. We just had people making mistakes. We might be lighter on talent, or maybe it's the youth of our defensive line talent shining through right now, but...

True. I don't know if he called him out by name, but he essentially did by saying "walk on safety" so everyone knew who it was, and when he did say it, he put it into the context that it's not Howden's fault that he had to play since we had such few options. Since then, we have not been short...

There is nothing else for him to really say. A true leader isn't going to directly call out his coaches or players. Anyone working under PJ, whether player or coach, has a pretty clear message that if things don't improve it's on Fleck to find people who will improve it through coaching or...

For all of the "we're going to lose this game anyway" crowd... We are 4 point dogs. We are not 14 point dogs We are not 24 point dogs We are not 28 point dogs. We are 4 point dogs against a defense who couldn't stop the run last week. We like to run the ball. I'm not betting that we win, but...

I just hope all of the interceptions he throws this week are all 40 yards downfield so it's like a punt anyway.

How do we know this is true every year. SEC was supposed to be far and away the best when OSU won it. Just because someone believes it doesn't make it true. And past history has had Alabama and Georgia beat up on non-SEC teams, but that doesn't mean Tennessee, Alabama, or Georgia (or Ole Miss...

There are people who are unhappy. Not sure if anyone is saying he should be fired. But what many posters are instead are suggesting is PJ should change to be someone different. Well, people don't change like that. They do learn. They don't learn the same day something happens to them however...

You are projecting things as if we will never have another season to compete. It's a fatalistic mindset you are showing. It's not an abundance mindset. Not having an abundance mindset affects your potential in life. If you want to be fatalistic and carry a scarcity mindset, fine, but don't...

My God, there is a voter out there who believes Tulane is a top 20 team. W Massachusetts W Alcorn State W Kansas State L Southern Mississippi W Houston W East Carolina W South Florida

It's reasonable to vote for Minnesota as #25 when they have two losses to two ranked team. The top 25 is filled with SEC teams like that. Let's not object at the first sign a voter shows some non-SEC bias. If you think Kentucky, Texas, and Miss St are way better than Minnesota or Purdue, you...

Good news is someone will lose. Bad news of course is one of them will win. Purdue winning hurts our chances of winning a division. Nebraska winning and it's another week of smug Nebraska fans chirping.

Someone please define what "overlooking an opponent" is. This whole concept at it's basic level is almost preposterous. The idea PJ would allow it to happen if this was in some way measurable, is even more ridiculous. Newsflash for some of you might be that the other team is also trying to...

After seeing Tua last night, I think it's best for AOC to rest a week. Need to play things safe with injuries. I think Brohm will leave AOC out. Looks better if he loses with a backup QB in there.

PJ used two timeouts in the first half vs MSU. In the 1st quarter, MSU had the ball with 2:13 left in the first. On third and 8 for MSU, Minnesota called a time out on defense. Next play Ryan Stapp sacked the QB for a loss. MSU Punt. The second time out was used with the Gophers in the...

He didn't reference it for this pick, but almost every week this year when making the pick for the Gophers he says "Well, we've seen Minnesota play down" or "Is this the week they don't show up like last year". Very skeptical overall of the Gophers in my opinion. Both he and Jeff were very...

Dustin Shutte -sp on Eyes On Big Ten podcast (and Purdue fan) picks Purdue. He believes it's possible Aidan wasn't hurt that bad and Brohm left him out just to distract Minnesota from Aidan. Shutte also always predicts that Minnesota might play down each and every week because we've done that...

You don't go unbeaten in the Big Ten and not make the CFP. That's ridiculous.
