    POLL: Will the Gophers pull an upset this year in the Big Ten?

    Not just Brosmer. Even in Saturdays game there were issues (exhibit A; The O line). We still don't know much about were we fit in. The next couple of weeks we should start to have a better idea of where we are relative to others. We have Iowa at home so that may give us the slight edge. How we...

    Congratulations to NIU & HC Thomas Hammock

    No. We all would applaud not turtling before the kick-off against a top 5 ranked team and celebrated the win.

    P.J. Fleck on struggling offense: 'This isn't backyard football'

    That wasn't a backyard football offense, but we did actually work on the forward pass today. It won't be anywhere near this easy again this year, but we know we can actually execute a pass play. As long as the sun comes up again tomorrow, here's hoping the coaching staff decides to make it a...

    Post Game Thread: Gophers Crush Rhode Island

    Today wasn't about running the ball, I was shocked we had the opportunity to work on the pass and did. After today's game, i'm starting to doubt that Peej isn't influenced by Gopherhole. We got a lot of what we wanted today. Lots to be happy about but that was not a very good football team we...

    They fixed the audio after awhile, but most of the first half was trash. We have it for EPL or I probably wouldn't spend on it.

    What grade do you give Gophers coaches in win over Rhode Island?

    Glad to see they finally took advantage of an inferior opponent to work on the passing game. Got everything out of this game you could hope for, including actually giving some time to backups and nobody got hurt.

    P.J. Fleck's Week 2 message to Gophers: 'Be a goldfish'

    Media blows it out? It's a video of him saying it.

    P.J. Fleck's Week 2 message to Gophers: 'Be a goldfish'

    He can reach out to his players any way he wants. Doesn't mean it's not annoying. It only matters if it works with the team and it allows him to get them where he wants them.

    P.J. Fleck's Week 2 message to Gophers: 'Be a goldfish'

    I see what you did there. I'll never view a Fleck post game press conference the same way again.

    Why not be more skeptical of a newly hired head football coach here at Minnesota and more supportive of the existing coach?

    Easy killer. Not sure where you were in fandom at the time but Holtz came to Minnesota and sold everyone that this was where he wanted to be, all the while angling fornthe Notre Dame job. Lou Hoax came out of his abrupt departure when he'd lifted the team significantly and then quickly jilted...

    P.J. Fleck on struggling offense: 'This isn't backyard football'

    You'll know if PJ decides to go this route when there are cars parked on our sideline so the players know when to cut in for the pass: Max: Daniel, go to the Red pickup and cut left. Daniel: throw to the far side once I hit the car door. They can't stop me. (We played in the streets).

    Happy Five, Upset Five Fanbases: Week 1 (Upset: Minnesota; "This game showed us zero imagination and risk from the Gophers")

    That is expecting a lot. I'm hoping on 3rd and 7 from the 10, we leave Jackson n the game so the other team might hazard a guess we'd maybe throw the ball. baby steps.

    P.J. Fleck on struggling offense: 'This isn't backyard football'

    I don't know about most. I'm guessing some did. It's very much the same speech he gives every time the team shits the bed. Play calling was even, but the QB had to bail out on plays. 5 guys blocking, one screwed up. Players just need to execute It didn't have the same tenor he sometimes get...

    P.J. Fleck on struggling offense: 'This isn't backyard football'

    I love when PJ starts talking to the press like the fans are idiots and can't possibly understand the intricacies of football. Calling your fans idiots is not a very good look and only plays into the arrogance PJ has always had about his approach. I mean, I know he invented football at Minnesota...

    Taylor Out

    No. He saves that for the return. This was just because he plays a physical sport.

    GopherHolers: A Fleck temperature check

    The choices here are ridiculous. Temperature check? His seat is cool as a cucumber. He is currently in no danger of being fired, unless a scandal erupts. If his current trajectory doesn't change, I don't think if we go 2-10 this year his seat will be hot next year. To some the writing is on...
