It sucks that all these realignment changes are due to a single sport, football. College football is so unique with the Power 5, Group of 5 and FBS official and unofficial levels that it would make more sense to me to come up with a football only alignment plan if they are going to change at all.

You got that right. I seem to remember always entering via the loading dock but we would exit from the windy doors.

Try coming out of one of those doors with a sousaphone on your shoulder. That's an adventure I had many times as a member of the marching band. Sometimes it was after a practice and there was only a single door open so the air speed was even greater.

I’ll take this sort of prediction over the “Anything less than 10 wins will be a disappointment.” headline that lets a writer brag that they were right no matter what the final record is. Now the team hopefully can make him eat his words.

Some day people will look at my inaugural season print and ask “What are those weird things at the bottom?“

Like Jerry Seinfeld said regarding professional sports is becoming true for college basketball: We are rooting for laundry.

I bet we are the only team in the Big 10 with a coach that doesn't even have a Wikipedia page. lol

If you want more details on the heated bench issue, look at this article. According to this, it was the Gophers who requested the benches from the Vikings. Not OSU. Minnesota Vikings Offer Ohio State Heating Equipment Thanks To Minnesota Request - The Daily Gopher

Rick Spielman has been with the Vikings since 2006. According to this gophersports.com listing, 23 Gophers have been drafted since 2006. Here is the details of them per NFL team: 49ers 0 Bengals 0 Bills 0 Browns 0 Cardinals 0 Chargers 0 Colts 0 Eagles 0 Lions 0...

I may have missed an announcement about this, but it looks like the B1G decided to get rid of the Friday night games. Thank God! As many people have said: Friday is for HS football.

It looks right to me. I viewed this as the results I would expect against the other teams when the Gophers are playing them right now. If we play OSU, I expect a loss and would be totally shocked by a win. If we play Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan and to a lesser extent Penn State, I definitely don't...

I've seen variations of this logic multiple times in this thread. While it may be your goal to never have to work again (I know it's mine), there is no way that Fleck is looking for a path to early retirement.

The FBC Mortgage Cure bowl is exhibit A for why I shake my head when people say there are too many bowl games. Is it meaningless? Yes. Is it two teams few people care about? Yes. But is it entertaining? Absolutely. I’m enjoying the hell out of this finish.

ESPN’s win probability. What a roller coaster.

I poked in on a U of A fan forum (Bear Down Wildcats). I've never seen that sort of reaction to a coaching hire. Fisch is stepping into a job where pretty much 100% of the hard core fan base (I figure that's who posts on fan forums) hate the hire. A lot of fans are vowing to step away, cancel...

Speaking of Al's, they need our help. https://www.alsbreakfastmpls.com/giving

You sure about that? Gopher served in the US House of Representatives. Sure, he was from Iowa. But still...

Ditto. I and most the people I know have been working remotely for over six months now. I don't see why a football coach can't do it if the technology makes it possible. If nothing else, it would make it less likely for future cases to get "hidden" if the NCAA makes it clear that getting the...
