    Ben Johnson: “We lost our edge. Even though we were up the energy, the vibe wasn’t what it needed to be. We got low into their pace.”

    I was in the stands for this one. Without Garcia, the Iowa D collapsed on Christie and Hawkins and our offense had no flow. Christine is an amazing #2, but isn't #1 material yet. He couldn't create his own shot or get out of the double-teams. Hawkins was handsy and frustrated all day. He...

    If the gophs beat Purdue, MSU, and Illinois

    Best scenario is that we win out, sans OSU, Nebraska loses to Maryland and beats Iowa and Wisconsin, OSU beats Wisconsin. Then...we are allowed to be demolished again by Michigan in Indy...which I would love BTW!!! Ski-U-Mah

    Badger Fans Not Digging DJ-Driven, Shouting PA Atmosphere

    A counter-point on which age group of fans matters more. Yes, you absolutely need young fans to create the energy in the stadium and (hopefully!, they become future donors), but for the here and now, you need the older fans and their money. In the NIL era, the wealthy fans are critical. The...

    Big Ten Title game going to Las Vegas?

    I love the idea of Vegas, but the history of the Rose Bowl for the title game would be awesome.

    Shama on Fleck: 21 Big Ten wins over four years is the most ever for the football program that began in 1882.

    Indiana went 6-1 in the B1G and ended the season ranked #12. I doubt many Hoosier fans consider that a real season, even though they enjoyed the heck out of it. Northwestern was similar at 7-1 in B1G and ending at #10.

    Greder: 1. Less experience. 2. Tougher schedule. Story: Those two factors contribute to Gophers football team facing headwinds of lower expectations

    QB is an upgrade (and yes, Morgan deserves all our thanks!), WR is a massive upgrade, RB is a slight downgrade, but more depth, TE is a upgrade, OL is a slight downgrade but will not have to run block as much (still more than the ave team), D is a downgrade, but a more explosive O helps balance...

    The 10 greatest Gopher football players, according to ChatGPT

    I wish I would have enjoyed those Rose Bowls after the 03 and 04 seasons more. Guess I just got fixated on our disappointing 4th place Big Ten finish in 03 and only going 3-5 in conference play in 04. It was an incredible gesture by the Big Ten, though, to send us to the Rose Bowl in each of...

    Big Ten owes Gopher players an apology

    It's also a baseball stadium in SD, Petco Field. The football stadium was demolished in 2020 after the Chargers left for LA.

    Where would you rank Fleck in the new Big Ten West coaching pecking order

    Fickell's one year as the interim HC at Ohio State (2011) resulted in a 6-7 season. It followed a 12-1 campaign (2010) after which Jim Tressel resigned due to the "scandal" of players selling their memorabilia. In 2012, OSU went 12-0 under Urban Meyer. Pretty sure I could have coached that...

    Wisconsin made a bold move, do we have the nerve to do the same?

    HA! You should have posted this in 1970. Only 52 years too late.

    Wisconsin made a bold move, do we have the nerve to do the same?

    I'm pumped for next season! Going to the NC game and excited for Athan and what I expect to be a new look offense that isn't as run focused, based on the personnel we'll have (including a rocket arm at QB!)

    Wisconsin made a bold move, do we have the nerve to do the same?

    This is so...Minnesota. Fleck's tenure stands alone as the best modern coach we've had. Recruited the best QB (career-wise), best RB (ever!), best season since the 1960s (11-2). Too many trolls on this page.

    Thoughts about entering Beaver Stadium vs TCF

    I was supposed to use Gate C at Beaver Stadium, but was able to enter through Gate F. I didn't know where Gate C was and just went to the closest one.
