Agreed, there was no meaning to the 2020 season in terms of judging who had the best team. I don't see how you can say there was between the forfeits/cancellations and some games where they were playing 15-20 players short like MN did against NEB. Let's be honest, there were some people with...

This article was written before the USC game. These numbers have now shifted a bit: Maryland - MINN win 64% ILLINI - MINN win 50% (coin flip) Rutgers - MINN win 49.4% (This will shift as it becomes more apparent they don't have a QB) Penn St - MINN win 27.9% Wisky - MINN win 35.3% (makes the...

Oooops, someone should've told Vandy last week that ESPN basically said they didn't need to show up to play the game.

A new world in the SEC. Bama down to S. Carolina 19 - 14 in the 3rd Qtr. That's 19 unanswered by SC.

Is AK actually getting worse? He had better stats against Wisky with us. At the Half:

There's a blast from the past. Nice call with Space Ghost. He even likes to rock the gold cape.

I think it's been a bit of a weird year as there are teams that are sitting at spots where they don't typically sit, especially rushing Defense. There are a few teams that are in our neighborhood below 50 in rushing that you might not expect: Luckily for us, some of our future opponents like...

To give you an idea of how good our Pass Defense has been, despite currently being ranked 66th is Rush Defense we are still 6th in Total Defense.

If anyone has interest in rewatching the entire game minus the commercials, there is a YouTube channel currently out there that has it. At last until BTN requests they pull it down.

Minnesota Brews up another Win against the Other LA Team

I was taking a look at the stats for the NEB & ILLINI game and thought, I hate to give Bielema credit , but I think if you asked PJ what the ideal stat line would look like, the Illini stats below would be close: They got a very good game out of Altmyer and as you can see he was overall he was...

Once you look at the conference portion of the schedule it really drives home how big the conference is with the only home and away being WISC, but also the quality of opponents.

So true, we all remember how much the betters moved the line the day before the UNC game.

Besides, some of the best parties start late or often better known as the After Bar parties. There's a reason they have trouble making 11:00 o'clock starts on a Sat. It's not like they're in bed at midnight. They can watch the game and then go for another 4-5 hrs to celebrate after the win.

It should be interesting to see how Cignetti does. There have been other coaches that came out of FCS with an ego only to get crushed, but they didn't make an effort to consistently tell you on camera about their greatness or continually give off an arrogant attitude.

I don't think this is a huge surprise if you really looked at Hetherman's background before the season started. Here are James Madison’s defensive rankings under Hetherman: (2021): 7th in scoring, 8th in yards, 1st in turnovers, 8th in sacks. (2020): 8th in scoring, 5th in yards, 21st in...

I think the Iowa defense is more vulnerable than we've seen in a while. The Iowa defense has not seen their typical form in the first 3 games and has already given up 3 plays of over 50 yds so far this season. I also point to the fact that Troy’s starting quarterback, Crowder, was out due to...

I think FPI data will also start to adjust itself more effectively now that we have entered the conference schedules. The issue is that not all the data is completely available these first 3-4 week in the FPI. What I mean by that is that the FPI data is focused on the FBS teams and the FCS data...

It's frustrating in terms of planning, but I think I see reasons why they want to wait to make a decision on several of these games and I'll throw out my thoughts for what it's worth. First, this all comes down to the very complicated TV contract (FOX/FS1, NBC/Peacock, CBS and BTN) and all the...
