    Tackled better on third and long situations rather than giving up numerous first downs? Iowa would have had more three and outs and less big play opportunities and would have given the Gopher offense better field position and not as many long fields to drive. What if the well rested Gopher...

    It appears that this season has become a rebuild project.

    Everyone references the incredible 2019 season. The 2020 season was pandemic dominated and it was difficult to tell what was going on in college football with so many teams. Two tremendous receivers are gone from that team of 2019. An All-American who roamed the field on defense isin Tampa...

    The coach, the staff and the players have treated us to a noteworthy Big Ten season!

    7 wins. 2 losses. Excitement. Dreams of more. A season that most Gopher Fans have never seen. Wasn’t it WILD? Wasn’t it fun? Wasn’t it exactly what we have all been wanting? Of course it has been. So our two BT losses were to Iowa and Wisconsin. One or the other of them kept us from...

    Run the ball...stop the run this week...iowa made the GOPHER try to beat them with the pass. MUST beat NU with the run.

    Iowa took the run away...knocked a lot of passes down by getting their hands up and letting our receivers catch a bunch of passes. RUN on the Cats and all will be ok.

    A 4-5 conference record in 2019 would make Fleck a .333 Big Ten Coach after 3...

    seasons here and would give his team a shot at an 8 win season in a bowl game. I think that would be a reasonable expectation. All things are possible if progress is made. O-line: make some progress...

    season. In 14 Big Ten games this season he is 6-8: a .429 winning percentage. Overall in Big Ten play during his tenure at Minnesota, his record is 37-67 for a .356 winning percentage. That is an increase of 12 basis points over his cumulative record in Big Ten play of .344 at the end of the...

    Winning 2 of 3 Big Ten games in November in year #2 is avery good sign!

    Winning last 2 of 3 Big Ten games in November in year #2 is avery good sign! The only way for a Big Ten football program to start improving is to win Big Ten football games. Coach Fleck proved by winning two Big Ten games in his first season that he had a shot at being a Big Ten football...

    I really have never put too much creedence in high school fantasy ratings & stars... However, it is no wonder that Seth Green had so much hype during his high school career. He is the WILDCAT of the year in the Big Ten, if not the nation. A TD pass...a TD run...several key first downs today...

    Most unsung offensive hero for the first 1/2 of 2018 season in my book is:

    Seth Green. He is totally under used and apparently under appreciated around here. Minnesota Golden Gophers Stats - 2018<form class="js-goto" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent;"><select...

    Haven't read all the threads, but I have a question: Wildcat broke, in dog house or..

    in the third and 4th quarters in the RED ZONE, did the coaches just forget we have a WILDCAT FORMATION? Our young qb has a gimpy leg. Things happen really fast inside the RED ZONE. Please tell me that the coaches didn't just forget the Wildcat. The coaches with their calls came out of two...

    At the game today I chanced upon an old friend and a very wise and ever present Golden Gopher Football Follower more commonly referred to around these parts merely by the moniker: The Loon. Loon wanted to know just how the old gang at Gopher Hole feels about those four ooc wins our Golden...

    My Golden Gopher Football Program is standing tall, fighting hard AND...

    is very well-coached by a VETERAN Big Ten Coach and a veteran Big Ten Staff that has once again PROVED that they DO belong and DO need to be running this Football Program! The win over Northwestern removes ANY chance of a winless Big Ten Season. The Staff Members DO face the challenges of game...

    Student Section Attendence: who is ultimately responsible for this problem?

    As is noted in a previous thread, the Student Section and student attendance at Football games is pathetic. I would like to know who people feel is ultimately responsible for establishing a thriving, energetic, always filled student section in TCF BANK STADIUM? Some examples might be...

    A serious proposal for a new "winner take all" grudge rivalry competition for reusse.

    A serious proposal for a new "winner take all" grudge rivalry competition for reusse. Put reusse and barrerio (sp? who cares?) on the air in competing head to head time slots to see which of them will get the highest rating by Arbatron or which ever rating agency scores those radio popularity...

    today are the direct result of the Gophers Big Ten Football Win. Can there be any doubt that for a Big Ten Coach, winning a Big Ten game (ESPECIALLY a border battle rivalry game), during a really tough first season greatly enhances his chance of having success in his football coaching tenure at...
