    Time to be honest with ourselves...

    I agree with many on here that say PJ Fleck will remain here as long as he wants - he has a pretty good thing going here. A few things really bother me: - Returning punts and kickoffs is a very basic play in football. They can really change the game or electrify the entire team when someone has...

    What grade do you give the Gophers coaches in the massive collapse vs Illinois?

    Just another horrible, inexcusable loss. And good luck, too because next year it only gets tougher. At least then I guess we will lose to GOOD teams.

    Bobby Knight famous for both victories and outbursts, dies at 83

    He was a great coach, one of the greatest coaches of all time. He probably would have been a great football or baseball coach if he had decided to coach those sports. Listening to his broadcasts were very interesting and I always learned something about basketball when I watched. I always felt...

    All Things P.J. Fleck Rumor Mill Thread - Listed as Candidate for Other Jobs

    If he wins -- they will put up with it just fine, but if he loses -- they will turn on him very fast!! PJ may have some kookiness -- but he is OUR kook and I just don't see anyone coming in and doing better than he has. Hope he stays for a long, long time here (well as long as he wins!! haha)

    Gophers defense is getting better

    "The Baron" has been fun to watch. He gets in some nice hits and he always seems to be around the ball. He has gotten better and better as the season has gone on. It will be fun to see him and Lindenberg work together when he gets back!

    Gophers defense is getting better

    I know Iowa has a terrible offense and this certainly makes us look better, but I really liked the way Rossi's defense played last week vs. the Hawkeyes. Gopher fans were very concerned after the thrashing the Wolverines put on, but you can tell they went back to the drawing board the last...

    I would STILL take their offense above the Hawkeyes though.....

    We outplayed our rival again

    I doubt they ever see the top 25 the rest of the year. They can't run or pass!!

    We outplayed our rival again

    The defense is still good, but not Michigan good. Their offense is REALLY bad. Probably bottom of the Big 14 bad.

    We outplayed our rival again

    Our defense put the absolute beatdown on that team. It was nice seeing our defensive line putting on pressure and they totaled 4 sacks, 6 TFL's and 3 TO's. I know Iowa's offense is not good, but I haven't seen our defense just dominate even against MAC teams or out of conference teams. The only...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT IOWA JUST FIND A WAY TO WIN THIS GAME THREAD!!!***

    This was a fantastic win-- we are just a better team than they are. They are NOT a good football team.

    IT WAS TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah you are right -- it is about time we win one of these types of games. The team deserves it -- they played a very good second half!!

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT IOWA JUST FIND A WAY TO WIN THIS GAME THREAD!!!***

    oh....I am thinking about 8 yards ....lol. Let's see how they come me out in the 2nd half. Do they come out pissed and put a beating on or do they fold up and call it quits. We ARE the better team. But this is just brutal to watch!

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT IOWA JUST FIND A WAY TO WIN THIS GAME THREAD!!!***

    Our QB has less than 10 yards of passing and the defense just gave them their only TD. We are the better team but trail on the scoreboard. Yeah, looks like a typical Gopher-Iowa Game to me. We have GOT to get a better QB during the portal season. We really suck right now.

    Strack: Gophers Could Force Inept Iowa Offense to Beat Them but PJ Fleck Probably Won’t

    Agreed. The over and under is a miniscule 30.5. Vegas is expecting this to be a low scoring game that will probably be decided in the trenches, field position and turnovers. This is old school football!!

    The Five Factors that Win

    The Gophers should benefit from the bye week while Iowa had to play a tough game vs. Wisconsin. Iowa comes in really banged up on both offense and defense and this should benefit the Gophers. Unfortunately, this will be played at Kinnick Stadium where the Gophers have really struggled and...

    CBS: Big Ten football grades - midseason report (Minnesota: D-)

    Actually, he is back at the U of M as the Director of Player Development since 2017. Yeah -- he is REALLY a big guy and I wish him the best!!

    CBS: Big Ten football grades - midseason report (Minnesota: D-)

    A D- -- Well at least it wasn't an F!! It reminds me of a history class I had at the U of M and big offensive lineman Norries Wilson got his paper back. He says incredulously --- "Mother F--- I passed" Haha....

    Beat Iowa

    I have seen this one dozens of times before over the years. Looking at a 24-6 type of win for the Hawkeyes. If Iowa is favored by less than 10 points, it is a pretty safe bet to take Iowa. this really sucks -- but it's where we are....

    This is surreal. Gophers had 5 passes in the 2nd half last night. 5!!!!

    This year, a whopping 58 of the 131 starting QB's in the NCAA D-1 came from transfers. That is a whopping 44.3 per cent. The year before, the number was 37 per cent but you can see the trend. Not sure what is wrong with AK but it seems like he has regressed from last year. I think Fleck is...
