I actually thought of the things Koi did on that offensive play; the sack wasn't the worst thing. Trying to throw the ball could have been much worse. I give him credit for that. Players miss tackles and plays in every game. The punt return foibles? That's basic football common sense not to...

I understand the approach, and it can make sense in certain situations, I agree. It's also the leading cause of bad losses. James Franklin uses the same approach that helped us beat them in 2019 and almost beat them last year. Lloyd Carr got fired for refusing to go away from it and losing...

Fake scenarios? outside of 2019 and last season this has been the approach under Fleck.

I was hoping that Drew's performance against Buffalo would help take Fleck's boot off of Harbaugh and the offense, but I believe you're right - we'll go with the Fleck-special game plan - you know the one that helped us lose to bang up opponsents like Bowling Green, Purdue several times, and...

Put it this way. Only two of the bowls the Gophers have played in under Fleck existed when Mason was coach (there were 25% fewer bowls back then). One of them we only qualified for because of grades, so with 25% fewer bowls there would have been enough teams to fill the slots and we wouldn't...

I think you can get all of this, and still schedule an FCS team that wouldn't have been blown out by the decimiated VaTech team we played in the Mayo Bowl..... We don't have to play NDSU, but the chance to earn a win you don't have to work to hard for lies in between NDSU and St. Sebastian's...

th this sounds eerily familiar.

No, BG was not good. The Gophers were the only FBS team they beat that had a winning record (Murray State had a winning record in the FCS at 6-5) and managed a loss to 2-10 Akron. We finished 6-3 in the B1G and 9-4 overall. There is zero excuse for the poor game plan, poor in game coaching...

St Juste won't get drafted until 2032. He's going to be a monster when he plays for us before getting drafted. Most kids get ready for College Football at a high school......

uh...a friend told me about it. I haven't seen it......

The boys will be playing al fresco. The video is on the Gophers Only Fans page.

Northern Iowa is not in the MAC (I think you meant Northern Illinois) and MAC teams have a history of beating all of B1G teams consistently over the years, if not regularly. Some more than others. Back in the day, the MAC was considered the "cradle of coaches" as many B1G coaches were hired...

Seriously? Are you trying to make an argument that BG team was good? We were the only FBS win in a 14 game streak of losses spanning the end of 2019, 2020, and 2021..... and you're right, we were a 31 point favorite...

I dunno, that 2018 New Mexico State team was pretty bad. They beat Librerty the first time they played them (it was Liberty's first year in the FBS - that's a division name that hasn't aged well) and lost when they played a second time later in the year, beat a one win UTEP, and Alcorn State and...

MNgg11 likes to call people who have a different opinion names, and doesn't like me because I have the audacity to be critical of Fleck, so I don't pay too much attention to what he has to say. I have not said a lot of things that have been inferred from my post, some of which I have not said...

I'm fine with that. I could be wrong. Maybe you have an explanation of why perhaps the most individually talented line of Fleck's tenure - last years line - was worse in 2024 than it was in 2023.

I'm not comparing his lines to Kill and Claeys lines.
