    Let's Roll Tide

    Seems unfair that Ohio State would drop so far after a 6 pt loss to powerhouse Michigan. They are now out of the final four.

    Matt Rhule: "A good QB in the portal costs $1 million, $1.5, 2 million" in NIL.

    This is unsustainable and obviously a calamity for college football. Changes will have to be made. NY Times said that a star tackle at Mich St. was paid $850,000 to keep him from entering the portal.

    Dragan Kesich joins Tyler Nubin as first team all conference

    Jackson makes second team, along with Ersery. Honorable mention for Justin Walley, Carroll, Boe, Spann-Ford and Darius Taylor.

    Quarterbacks in the Transfer Portal

    It will be a chore, but bringing the issue back to the Court is vital - the justices had no idea of the consequences of their voting.

    Alex Kaliakmanis: Trying very hard not to comment on a program that our family decided to cut ties with.

    There was a shrewd comment here that Ak's slinging sidearm passing style made him throw the ball too hard - that he didn't have the soft touch, as for a screen pass, a quick pass to a running back. That should have been coached out of him somewhere along the line, but wasn't. Yet there was a lot...

    Shatel: Why I'm glad Nebraska didn't qualify for a bowl game off APR like Minnesota

    Nebraska has spent a small fortune on the football complex in recent years (stadium, locker room that a pro team could use) and now they are going to spend half a $billion on more improvements. They shouldn't have trouble pulling in NIL funds - the only game in town. Seven years without a...

    BREAKING: ATHAN IN THE PORTAL

    The anytime transfer has to go. That would be the first step toward bringing back sanity to college football. Reducing or ending NIL will require court action, which will take some time. As PJ said, every kid is a free agent with no salary caps. That is totally, almost insanely unfair, and...

    Marquese Williams in the transfer portal

    PJ doesn't give his reserve QB any experience, either - as someone here pointed out, even when Gophers are way ahead or way behind. When Ak was stumbling, Cole should have had a shot or two. Who's the QB in the bowl?

    BREAKING: ATHAN IN THE PORTAL

    That will be interesting.

    Quarterback

    You would think some QB coaching along the way would have corrected the sideways sling delivery.

    Quarterback

    Brosmer: 5 times more TDs than interceptions; 62% completions. Doesn't run.

    Quarterback

    To me, he seems a lot slower than last year when running.

    Parity in P5

    There is a real possibility that the top 40 or so form their own non-NCAA semi-pro league, and everyone else morphs into something more in line with student athlete expectations, even if it means dropping a notch to about the North Dakota State level. It would mean turning away from big TV money...

    Brian Murphy: P.J. Fleck's tone-deafness is ear-splitting

    Luridly overwritten, but he makes a few good points. I haven't seen tackling that sloppy in years - what's happened with Rossi? PJ is too conservative and he distrusts passing, evident even when he had another QB. On that subject, why didn't Cole, who was sharper and more confident in the Spring...

    Quarterbacks in the Transfer Portal

    Which shouldn't be happening. The new transfer rule just helps exaggerate all the problems with jumping programs now offered by NIL. The NCAA can go back to the wait-a-year rule and in that the courts would have no say. That would leave the grad transfers.

    Trib says Gophers ARE going bowling

    Navy was clobbered by SMU Saturday and are now 5-6. Service teams have to have six wins by Dec. 3, the bowl announcement date, to be considered. Navy is out, the Gophers are in (somewhere - probably Detroit vs, the MAC champion, but there seem to be other possibilities). Fox has us in Detroit...

    Already bowling (likely)

    Google says that it's a bowl rule that Army or Navy must have 6 by the day of bowl announcements.

    Athan finishes season ranked 14th in passer rating in B1G

    Athan 10th in official B10 standings; Jackson third in receiving; Dragan had most field goals in the conference.

    Trib says Gophers ARE going bowling

    Jerry Palm says Boca Raton Bowl, vs, Coastal Carolina, Dec. 21, but that may be an earlier projection - hard to tell on his website.
