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

    Gophers going ALL WHITE against UCLA

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

    Gophers currently have the #1 pass defense in the nation

    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...

    Gophers currently have the #1 pass defense in the nation

    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.

    POST GAME THREAD: GOPHERS BEAT USC!!!

    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.

    Week 4 Other Games Thread

    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...

    2024-2025

    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.

    Breaking: Iowa Favored by 2.5 Points Over Gophers at Minnesota ** UPDATE ** Iowa By 3 Now **

    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.

    Corey Hetherman is hitting his stride as Gophers defensive coordinator

    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.

    Corey Hetherman is hitting his stride as Gophers defensive coordinator

    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...

    Breaking: Iowa Favored by 2.5 Points Over Gophers at Minnesota ** UPDATE ** Iowa By 3 Now **

    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...

    Gopher Defense led by Hetherman Getting it DONE - Currently 5th in the NATION

    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...

    Start Time for Michigan Game

    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...

    I'm giving this from the Iowa perspective: "Hawks get Wings Clipped by Minnesota after another Terrible Offensive Outing" On a side note, I found this on YouTube (Anyone know this guy?) :) https://www.youtube.com/shorts/vMstuJsR23A?feature=share

    Fleck doesn't think last year's fair catch fiasco adds any juice to Iowa showdown

    Let's wait and see. I don't know if we can depend on Ferentz not stirring the pot. It was two weeks after the game last year and he was still telling people they go jobbed by that call when doing any interviews.

    Which Team do you hate more Iowa or Wisconsin?

    This is exactly what my Dad says. If it comes up in a conversation, he's always like there was no real rivalry before Alvarez. It took that huge winning streak by Wisky to just pull even in the series. Reminds me of the Packers as well when Favre came on the scene and won that first Super Bowl...
