The concept of consent gets more difficult when there is a large power gradient. Initially very likely things were consensual (which means she also knowingly violated the university policy). However when there’s a power gradient it becomes more difficult for the subordinate to withdraw consent...

He’s a Midwest guy mostly, with some time on the west coast and no prior southeast experience. Taking the Bama job was probably a no brainer but maybe he has found that he doesn’t like the environment and would rather be in Big Ten country. Expectations are high at Michigan but not as high as...

No but they may have further protracted the internal investigation until after the playoffs.

Isn’t it ironic, don’t you think? Maybe they will take a break from the nonsensical Mr. Brightside tradition.

I thought Fleck said this was probably his most talented team yet. 7-5 required come from behind wins against the very worst of the conference, a pedestrian MAC win, and a high school team. Nebraska win was very solid and Wisconsin was showing some fight at the end of the season but they were...

The money allowed a faster build. Coaching, which includes talent identification as well as development (remember many of their transfers were JMU and G5 players) and finally getting all these new players to play effectively together, is the main component. There are loud people who say it’s...

The point is no one except highly knowledgeable CFB fans thinks New Mexico is a quality opponent. So a win is just ho hum expected for a Big Ten team and a loss is a field day for the local sports columnists. Really no big upside.

How much money did you lose betting against IU?? In 2024 the majority of IU transfers were from JMU and non power 5 teams (so, add them to the remnants from a 3-9 IU team). They beat the snot out of every team except OSU and ND. If those players were more talented than all but OSU/ND then it has...

Iowa finishing the season strong and better than I thought they’d do, since they found some offense. Nebraska has fully folded up the tents as of their last 2 road games. Ruhle looks kinda checked out, maybe bummed he blew his chance at auditioning for the PSU job.

There is some validity to saying “everyone missed on him” but if there’s anyone that wouldn’t miss on a local/regional recruit it is the local team. Wentz was at a Fargo high school but Emmett Johnson was at Holy Angels and Evan Hull at Maple Grove I think.

More than that, the Gophers probably had very little chance in this game without the returns.

Or maybe it was the Minnesota weather cooling on him.

#6 Fitzgerald on Northwestern (no relation to former coach) is probably the best tackler in the Big Ten.

When you take special teams as a whole, that is what put the Gophers in the game, which generated more points than the missed FGs left off the board. There were I believe more return yards than passing yards.

IL is (was) #21?

That last first down pass? It wouldn’t have made a difference, that was thrown to the line of scrimmage and it’s a spot foul, so basically it would’ve given an extra down, when they didn’t really have time for extra downs anyway. It’s a good thing the guy didn’t actually catch it as he would’ve...

A kickoff return to the 5 yard line in my opinion, special teams gets full credit for a TD. A muffed punt inside the 30, I give special teams credit for at least 3 points. No question the offense was better than the defense but it required unexpectedly good individual effort by Lindsey and WRs...

Northwestern tried to apply a handicap to the game by repeatedly kicking it straight to Perich.

35 points notwithstanding, 14 of those were basically from special teams.
