    Next Gopher Head Coach

    The Pros and Cons of keeping the Barn: On one hand, its ceiling will never be as high as the Kohl Center On the other hand, it has perhaps the highest floor in all of college basketball :)

    Week 7 Other Games Thread, 2020 Season

    Hey GSU, how does Georgia Southern match up this week against Coastal Carolina? Was thinking about adding them to my parlay at +6.5

    Big Ten Football Power Rankings: Week of 10/19

    Nebraska Homers chime in: (Skip to 20:15 for their take on the Gophers) I'll gladly accept the resentful Gopher praise (and Wisconsin/Iowa hate), even if it's from a couple of dinks that think Nebraska will go 5-3.

    Big Ten Roster Previews

    Let's reflect on the crazy season they had last year. They were picked last in the west. They lose early to a bad Eastern Michigan team. Then they lose the next 3 to Nebraska, us, and Michigan giving up 40+ points in each game. Lovie looks like he's out of a job. Next on their schedule is a 6-0...

    Big Ten Roster Previews

    By now we know all about the Gophers as they prepare to kick off the season against Michigan in just 11 days. Between now and then I'd like to take a closer look at our competition. My goal is to analyze each of the 14 Big Ten rosters and see how they stack up against each other. It's not an...

    Geiger: The team finds itself with a significant amount of support who believe that the Gophers have a chance to row the boat to Pasadena

    I'm all for optimism, but (assuming this doesn't change because of covid) the Rose Bowl is part of the college football playoffs this year. That means we would have to win the west over Wisconsin and company. Then we would have to beat Ohio State (or whoever represents the East) in the Big Ten...

    247's Allen Trieu has had him projected to the Gophers for quite awhile, and he's usually spot on. I wouldn't blame Townley if he decided he'd rather live in Tempe, though. Hot weather, hot girls, and it seems like Herm Edwards has that program trending in the right direction.

    Opt Out/Gone

    Ben Greve, Lindsay Whalen's husband, was indeed a golfer. Ben Grieve was rookie of the year in '98 for the Oakland A's. As far as I know, only the former has any ties to the U.

    Gophers #25 in ESPN Power Index

    https://apnews.com/hub/ap-top-25-college-football-poll Big Ten back in the AP rankings, but we're not. If that's not enough motivation to go out and pound the Wolverines on Oct. 24, I'm not sure what is.

    What will our team look like?

    This is the perfect schedule for us to be taken seriously in the Big Ten. Assuming Morgan stays and Fields goes pro, I think we have a fighting chance to upset tOSU at TCF. I'm not sure what other games are being played that week, but I'm guessing mostly crappy non-conference games. An upset...

    A heartfelt congratulations

    Looks more like outright Big Ten Champs to me.

    STrib: Who might emerge as the Gophers' top receivers?

    When I first heard of Bateman opting out I was devastated, but the more I thought about it the more I felt like we'll be ok. We're going to see a lot more diversity with who is catching passes this year. Everyone in the stadium knew Bateman or Johnson would get the majority of the targets last...

    Greder: U displaying its 2019 BT West trophy in the Larson Football Performance Center.

    Gotta love Badger's media. Knew they'd be all over this when I first saw the ring. In the spirit of participation trophies, maybe they should make a ring to commemorate their fourth straight loss in Big Ten title game appearances. They could even add their glistening 0-4 Rose Bowl record since...

    Official: Big Ten is going to a conference-only season, playing 10 games

    Saw this today, interesting take by Mark Rogers. He thinks Big Ten should make rivalry games home and home series for this season. That'd mean two games against Wisconsin instead of adding another opponent from the east. Another note, he has us playing OSU in the championship. RTB!

    Exactly. As a player if you hold off on committing you could end up very limited in options in the end. Besides, as we saw after Sam Jackson's (first) decommitment, bridges are hardly burned. Even after two decommitments, if he spends three years at Purdue, realizes he's not a QB, and decides he...

    Official: Big Ten is going to a conference-only season, playing 10 games

    That would make a lot of sense. American is not that far off from the lesser power-5 conferences, and they have an odd number of teams. Seems like a win-win. Plus, it would be a shame if Army-Navy wasn't played, one of my favorite games to watch every year.

    Official: Big Ten is going to a conference-only season, playing 10 games

    I saw that ND would likely be in the mix with the ACC this year, since they already have 6 games scheduled against ACC opponents. Wondering what would happen to the other independents though.

    Tyrone Carter

    My bad, I misread that. I wasn't actually aware of Denny Green, that was before I was alive. James Franklin could be added to the list as well.
