A buddy from Columbus turned me on this bit a couple years back... http://theozone.net/football/2012/Wisconsin/tipsheet.html

A couple weeks ago in the postgame call-in show (believe after the Iowa game) Ray Hitchcock suggested Coach Kill and his staff will bring this program to "national prominence". I'm wondering what his definition of that is? In my mind it's winning the Legends and making a Cap One bowl or better...

http://www.philsteele.com/miscpages/projectedstandings/2012/PS_Proj_Standings.html Has the Gophs going 0-8? Don't see it however do believe Purdue will battle WI for the Leaders division.

#7 - OSU #9 - MSU #19 - NE #30 - WI #33 - NW #35 - IA #40 - Purdue #41 - illinois #42 - Michigan #59 - Gophs #60 - PSU #90 - Indiana The next two games will be good tests for Kill & Co with Syracuse being the bigger challenge. That Saturday night game in two weeks should be entertaining.

http://cfn.scout.com/2/1097657.html B10 teams: #2 Michigan #3 Ohio State #8 Nebraska (obviously in B8 & B12 in past) #10 Penn State (Independent until early 90's) #19 Michigan State #23 Wisconsin #25 Iowa #31 Minnesota #40 Purdue Little surprised Sparty that high but overall B10 represented well

I may not agree with all this guys political takes but he has hit on some pretty big predictions over the past few years including Kiffen taking over for Fulmer a year before it happened. http://stevedeace.com/news/deaces-2012-college-football-preview/ Say hello to you 2012 B10 Coach of the...

My buddy from Columbus just sent me this link...this writer has never given the Gophs any respect and always mocked Mason as being a lightweight. No chance Kill goes 0-8 - I'm thinking 3-5 in the B10 (2-6 at worst) http://theozone.net/football/2012/12semiboldpredictions.html

http://cfn.scout.com/2/1206494.html Looks like Iowa is the only B10 team with a player/s on it...I think Kill has some guys (RS Frosh) that will make an impact in '12

http://cfn.scout.com/2/1205434.html Seems a bit predictable although not as high on Nebraska as I anticipated...Go Gophs! (meant title to say Big Ten - not Big)

http://cfn.scout.com/2/1202908.html Fairly generic analysis but not too bad

Very early predictions on bowl representatives - have NW, Purdue, and Illinois ahead of Gophs...not feeling the Illini at all although believe Purdue's O could be good http://www.philsteele.com/bowls/12-13/bowlprojections.html

A huge Gopher fan at my office brought up a great question when a bunch of us were shooting the bull about Coach Kill etc. at a company lunch/grill out last week That question was "What's the payoff"? As obvious as that seems it really clarified things for me regarding future expectations of...

Given the large/fertile recruiting footprint the state of Illinois has in basketball, the possibility of Shaka Smart rolling in to Champaign-Urbana is not good news for the Gophs. If he is hired there I would expect him to bring in some very highly rated classes.

In an era where you can schedule your way into a bowl invitation (4 non-conference cupcakes and win 2 out of 8 Big Ten games), I expect the Gophs to go 6-6 or 7-5 this fall. Then the real challenge begins - going beyond the low to middle of the pack in the conference and competing with...

Thought I'd provide a link to a classic piece of Gopher memorabilia I just came across on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150566697664&category=50133&_trksid=p5197.c0.m619 I believe this is in one of the display cases at TCF and is a cool piece to display in your...

...this guys columns and predictions are often funny if not accurate. http://theozone.net/football/2010/fallcamp/minnesotapreview.htm

http://collegefootball.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1111266 Not much love for the Gophs but that's why they play the games

What concerned me about Brew's approach yesterday was his speaking in the future tense..."we want to build X and we want to build Z" Hey, he's entering his 4th season and it should be more present tense like "we are doing X and we are building Z" To his credit he targeted his remarks at...

...ask Sid about Big Ten media day made me cringe. Hey, isn't he the play by play voice who should have a clue about what's going on in the conference. It's long overdue that Learfield replaces this bozo with someone informed/credible or we will continue to be looked upon as a rinky-dink...
