Clearly the best player on our team. Easily one of the best in the Big Ten.....but are we getting to the point where he should be viewed as one of the best players in the entire country? He is frustrating because at times he is way too passive but holy crap he can take over a game when he...

After the horrible free throw shooting and great 3 point shooting last night I looked at the stats from the first 3 games (2 exhibition and 1 regular season) to see how those two stats had looked to date this year. Through 3 games Free Throws - 28-54 - 52% 3 Pointers - 31-63 - 49% I wonder if...

First off, Brosmer has been really solid all year and was a phenomenal pickup by the coaching staff. But has been a lot of fun to see him develop over the course of the season so thought it would be interesting to compare his first 4 games vs his last 4 games. 1st 4 75 comp 114 attmepts 836...

Coming off of 4 emotional games....2nd half collapse against Iowa, coming up just short against Michigan....followed by 2 hard fought wins against USC and UCLA. No doubt lots of guys are dinged and can use the week off to get their bodies right. Coaches get to hit the road recruiting coming...

All 3 played 1 power 4 team and 2 lesser teams. All 3 have the same records, but they are not all in the same place heading into conference play. Iowa - lost to their rival and was down at halftime against Troy at home. Offense is better but still leaves a lot to be desired and defense is not...

Some will discount this because it is coming from Brian Kelly the same way people scoffed at what Saban had to say. But I like that more and more coaches are speaking out about the insanity of what is going on right now...

Lot of season left and things could go sideways....but from what I have seen to this point I don't see Johnson getting canned at the end of this season. I don't know if he will prove to be the guy but maybe.....just maybe.....he isn't the disaster that some have him pegged to be.

Similar to what happened in our game with Cooper DeJean and the Invalid Fair Catch rule being correctly enforced now the Chiefs are up in arms about the refs having the gal to call a WR for clearly lining up in the neutral zone which took away the awesome TD lateral from Kelce to Toney. If a...

Not going to make any predictions on records or if Johnson will be able to save his job. But here is what I have seen through the first handful of games as we head towards Ohio State on Sunday. Offense and depth are light years ahead of where they were last year. This team can score and has a...

I'm finally fully on board with some of the complaints many of you have had about offensive philosophy. The only chance you have to spring an upset against a team like Ohio State is to be aggressive and maximize every possession. I can be ok with the idea of a punt from the opponents 43 if...

Have been posting to Gopherhole for years, but something changed recently in regards to how the site runs in a browser. My laptop is a MAC - can't open the forums in chrome at all and in safari or firefox the forums open but they use a crazy amount of resources on my computer causing the fan to...

So in an effort to talk about something other than invalid fair catch signals let's take a look at the West as it stands today. Wisconsin - 3-1 Iowa - 3-2 Minnesota - 2-2 Nebraska - 2-2 Northwestern - 1-3 Purdue - 1-3 Illinois 1-4 When I looked at the West before I felt 6-3 could win it and I...

Division is Iowa's to lose but this weekend will have a big impact on how things play out in the mess that is the Big Ten West. Wisconsin at Illinois Minnesota at Iowa Northwestern at Nebraska Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Purdue all have crossover games left with one of the big three from the...

Loss to North Carolina sucked.....no sugarcoating that.....and based on what we have seen so far it feels unlikely that we upset Ohio State or Michigan. But outside of that....the West is still very much in play as the rest of the teams on our schedule have looked anything but impressive...

2 games in the books and still a ton of unknowns across the conference. Here is my general take on things 2 games in, curious what others are thinking. In regards to the conference as a whole - Michigan and Penn State are looking like the teams to beat so far. Way too early to count out Ohio...

.....we attempted more than 40 passes in a game. 44 attempts by Athan against Nebraska marks the highest total in any of Fleck's years with the Gophers. We have surpassed 30 a few times and had 39 attempts in the 2019 game with Iowa. You have to go all the way back to the 2016 game with Penn...

After many years as season ticket holders my parents made the tough call to give their tickets up this year because getting too and from the games and dealing with the weather at times was getting a bit too difficult. Even though they won't be at the stadium they would still like to be around...

I know this is not Gopher football related but it is the off-season and it would be interesting to hear what others thought of Jacksonville's decision to go for 2 late in the game yesterday. For those that didn't see it: Jacksonville was down 30-20 in the 4th quarter. With 3:22 left in the...
