    Rushing the passer

    Obviously, this needs to get better. Jah Joyner has potential when he's not getting held. Stiggrow has room to grow into a really good player too. The Ohio kid who ended up at EP (Bixby) was a hell of a HS player who I guess has battled health issues. Whatever happened with Surgers, the...

    BTN+

    How exactly does this work? I got an email that I can get a year school pass for $40 and one of the selling points is "Exclusive Men's Hoops Games". I'm trying to look at the schedule to figure out which games those would be. Is it just the games that don't currently have any TV listed on the...

    Gopher Tailgating Gear

    One of my pet peeves when I had season tickets was how difficult it was to find Gopher-branded tailgate items/supplies. Was at Sam's Club in Maple Grove yesterday and was pretty impressed with the amount of Gopher stuff they had on display. Big U of M canopy, heavy-duty Gopher camp chairs...

    How did Gonzaga do it?

    So, I've been giving this some thought after Ben Johnson was hired. There have been the typical responses about it not mattering because nobody can win here anyway. Which brought me to Spokane as a shining example that anyone can basically win anywhere, given they have the right coaching staff...

    Gophers a 10 seed, will play #7 Louisville in Des Moines!

    Pretty decent draw for location. Should be a nice Gopher crowd.

    Congratulations Coach Fleck!

    PJ finally beat someone good, edging Jimmy Butler to win the prestigious Turkey of the Year award!

    Possibility of Oregon State Postponement?

    It's still a few days away, but apparently the air quality is so bad in Oregon right now due to wildfires that both Oregon and Oregon State are looking at alternatives: https://www.landof10.com/nebraska/minnesota-nebraska-games-could-change-hazardous-oregon-air-quality "Oregon and Oregon State...

    Colton Beebe

    When he signed, there was talk as to whether he'd be a DE or TE. The previous staff made him a fullback and that ended up working quite well. Is there any reason not to move him to DE? There's no depth there at all and this stupid spread offense has removed his primary position. Remember...

    2017 Night Games

    We're right around the time where ESPN and the BIG start announcing night games for the 2017 season (came out on May 9th last year), so I assume we'll hear about this any day now. I'd guess the most likely candidates for home night games would be Nebraska or MSU, road possibilities for Michigan...

    A ray of hope for the future

    Yeah, it sucks being a 5 seed and losing to a 12, but there's not much you can do about it. I am going to happily grasp at straws and look at the last two Big Ten teams that dropped their first round game to 12 seeds. Both teams finished 4th in the conference. Purdue was a 5 seed last year...

    Is Duke McGhee a dirty player?

    That's Barreiro's assertion, going so far as to say making him sit for one game isn't nearly enough. I can see his point. A couple of hits that essentially knocked the other team's best WR out of the game sure don't look good. In watching yesterday's play back several times, it's most...

    Gophers as favorites

    Maybe this says more about the program than anything else. Going back to 2009, the Gophers have been favored by more than a field goal only 4 times in conference games. In 2009, they were 7 point favorites at home vs. Illinois. They lost by 3. 2014, 4 point favorites at Illinois, lost by 3...

    ESPN's John Saunders dead at 61

    Yeah, yeah. Technically off topic, but he was a staple on ESPN's college football coverage for some time. I always enjoyed his style.
