This is honestly why I've been an advocate of just making a CFB league with revenue sharing that actually pays players. Without being a league the have nots are farm clubs.

Alight, admit some hyperbole. But... under Fleck, Rossi, and our OCs which is more likely over 13 minutes: Gophers defense stopping 224 yards Gophers offense being productive

The offense has some growing pains and who lines up at RB this Saturday is going to be interesting. But this loss wasn't cause the Gophers took the foot off the gas. This loss was completely on pass defense. 21 points in 13 minutes. 396 passing yards and 4 TDs to clearly confused schemes...

It could be he's just a conservative HC in need of an aggressive OC to balance things out. The worse the season record, the more he'll be willing to take chances. We'll see I guess.

1 - Can you find a source for that statement? The only ones I find are because of the Lions being the Lions. "Since retiring, Sanders wrote co-authored a book — Barry Sanders: Now You See Him ... His Story in His Own Words — in which he made it pretty clear that he retired because he was...

Barry Sanders at Oklahoma State in 1988 _____ Sept. 10 vs. Miami (Ohio): 18 carries, 178 yards, two touchdowns, one kickoff return touchdown Sept. 24 vs. Texas A&M: 20 carries, 157 yards, two touchdowns, one punt return touchdown Oct. 1 vs. Tulsa: 33 carries, 304 yards, five touchdowns Oct. 8...

I do think the Gophers and other average programs in the BIG will have recruiting benefits by having more elite schools in the same conference. Not saying they'll have top 20 or anything, but certainly make the bump to top 40 more easy.

Gopherhole hopes that Rossi learns that pass coverage should probably cover 100% rather than 75%.

Yup. This right here obviously isn't a player problem. This is a Rossi problem. I say that as a Rossi fan.

The offense, eh, I expected a mess. I'll believe the Gophers will have a good offense when I finally see an OC and QB tandem that are coveted by other P5 programs. The run defense and line play have been fine. The tackling fundamentals have been off. But holy moly the coverage miscues are...

To PJ's credit, he usually rights the ship. To PJ's failure, it's usually losses like these that force his hand to make uncomfortable decisions.

I expected a 6-6 to 7-5 season. I understand that winning in Evanston is generally tough as Northwestern doesn't give up. Every year we can expect to see Northwestern upset somebody. But this game implosion rests solely on the Gophers poor coaching. 1 - We need points? Sorry, the OCs are...

Yup.

Well offense. You're in a shootout. Good luck.

Yeah. Let's gift them 30 yards so far.

Are you serious....

Our secondary is officially an area of concern.

Tough call for me. I feel like they just are different overall gameday philosophies. PJ is captain conservative, which still boggles my mind since he was a WR. Whatever floats your boat, PJ pun unintended.

I'm not sure about this. Head coaches are often CEO types. There are many good ones that delegate all gameday decisions. I think PJ and Prime are quite similar, not the same of course. Deion does have some recruiting advantages with the fame and experience of being one of best athletes ever...

I think TCU is an average to above average P5 team. Still maybe we should better define what "average" is. Is average the 50-60th team in the FBS? Or is average for a P5 team actually in the 30-50th range? I think TCU is probably around 40 this year. 🤷‍♂️
