    Bowl question

    The "Gophers don't travel to bowl games" gig is a self-fulfilling prophecy. When the Gophers qualify for a January 1st bowl game in Florida, there has been incredible attendance. However, sites like the Music City Bowl not taking the Gophers because they don't think we attend well sends us to...

    Gophers football: New defense to have litmus test against North Carolina’s ‘electric’ tailback

    I don't know whether I'd consider that "holding him" or getting so gashed through the air (10 yards per attempt) that they didn't even bother to run.

    Goodness Gracious. The annual off-season love for Nebraska and doubt in P.J. Fleck continues to impress.

    I'm not sure it's underestimating the Cornhuskers as much as it's finding it foolish for someone to list an O/U of 7.5 as "too low" for a team that hasn't even surpassed 6 wins since 2016. Yes, different coaches, new talent, etc. but we've said that countless times before. Prove you can win and...

    CFN: College Football Head Coach Rankings (#54. PJ Fleck, Minnesota; BT Rank: 12)

    After long thought I've come to the conclusion that this guy simply doesn't know what he's yapping about

    CFN: College Football Head Coach Rankings (#54. PJ Fleck, Minnesota; BT Rank: 12)

    Curt Cignetti ranked Top 5 in the Big Ten over Kirk Ferentz is certainly writing. Not to mention Jeff Brohm being 12th overall. Woof.

    Who bought the Hawk?

    I think he's already burned the "return to Minnesota" bridge with how he's handled this situation. Not to say with certainty that Ben wouldn't take him back if he didn't land somewhere else (he will), but there would certainly be tension.

    BadgersWire: Pre-spring College Football Playoff tiers for the 2024 season

    Going to have to look into this Nick Ewers guy. Haven’t heard much about him up until this point. On the other hand, I’ve heard Quinn Ewers is quite the quarterback.

    Season 4 of The Comparable 4 will return Dec. 1, 2024 (about a month into next season)

    What I meant was that, between graduations and transfers, Ben Johnson only retained one player from Pitino’s 2020-2021 team (that being Ihnen, I did forget about Eric Curry). Pretty sure almost all of the players who left for the portal did so either before or within 2 weeks of Ben Johnson’s...

    Season 4 of The Comparable 4 will return Dec. 1, 2024 (about a month into next season)

    Johnson hasn’t made his situation better? Dude took over a roster with one player on it and is currently 18-11, 9-9 in the conference. Yes it’s taking him some time but let’s not pretend he hasn’t “improved” his situation.

    UCLA moving student section behind opposing team sideline… (kinda)

    UCLA has had attendance issues as we know. I wonder if this is an effort to make the stadium look fuller during broadcasts (granted, I don't think students attend all that well either). Baylor has their entire student section along the visiting sideline if I recall correctly. Doesn't look...

    B1G vs SEC bowl games 2023/24

    Technically it's the off-season so I'd argue teams are closer to their new conferences than their old ones.

    Who is Everyones Other Team?

    I’ve been a big Bijan Robinson fan for a few years now so I’ve taken on cheering for the Texas Longhorns in my spare time. Was able to make it down to the 2022 Red River Rivalry, was an amazing experience (the game, not so much).

    Another National Championship for Iowa...

    Ko Kieft was not from Iowa Western. I think there was a lineman from a few years ago who came in from Iowa Western -- can't remember the name though. Jeff Jones enrolled there following his time (or lack thereof) with the Gophers. Edit: After research, Royal Silver, Merrick Jackson, Charlie...

    Alex Kaliakmanis: Trying very hard not to comment on a program that our family decided to cut ties with.

    I think there were plenty of games where Athan could have gotten his ass chewed out, but the Purdue game feels like the strangest one. That was the worst defensive performance in recent memory and it wasn't really close. 18-42 (43%) isn't a good completion percentage but he put up 30 in a Big...

    Uni Watch

    This is the first reveal in a long time where I've struggled to discern the combination. First video made me think it could be maroon helmet with gold chrome facemask. Then the jersey almost looks black if it weren't for the gold trim on the numbers. Photo this morning helped with the helmet...

    Who voted for who in the AP Top 25

    Gophers are 0-3 since 2020 in games where they were ranked -- are we sure we even want to be?

    How long before Wenger costs the Gophers a game in 2023?

    His ST have been consistent….ly below average.

    Possible hurricane game vs UNC

    I may venture to guess "arguing" with GopherWeatherGuy about weather-related events isn't the best course of action.
