    All Things 2025 Playoffs and Bowl Thread

    Its shocking how much the 2-2 record the SEC got in the SEC vs SEC bowl games is bolstering their bowl winning percentage this year.

    Curt Cignetti

    So step one is to assume in some alternate reality he would have won less game. Then, if we take that assumption as fact, we have to acknowledge that less wins would be less impressive than becoming the undefeated B1G champ and steamrolling Bama en route to a berth in the semis. And, based on...

    All Things 2025 Playoffs and Bowl Thread

    Id listen more seriously to the argument that stupid amounts of money allowed Indiana to simply buy a winning team if the narrative at the start of the season was "look at this ridiculous stacked roster, this team should be favored to win the big ten and steamroll its way into the semifinals as...

    Let's not be too hard on Bama. This is just one data point, and it shouldn't overshadow how utterly dominant their numerous hypothetical wins are.

    Showing up with a good scheme and playing well is a much better reaction to a key injury than wetting the bed and making excuses.

    Having Bama in the playoff would be like letting a AAA team in the major league playoffs.

    All Things 2025 Playoffs and Bowl Thread

    What Cignetti is doing at Indiana isn't that impressive. He is just the beneficiary of NIL funding that the likes of OSU and Alabama cant hope to compete with. Am I doing this right? (side note: it was really cute how long his haters tried to dig in on the "they arent good, they havent really...

    All Things 2025 Playoffs and Bowl Thread

    I think one of the best signs of a well coached teams is how the players react to unexpected wrinkles, fakes, trick plays, etc. Looked like all 11 players on the field knew exactly what to do when Bama tried to sneak a qb in for a fake punt.

    I love a coach who can look that pissed off when you are up double digits against Alambama in the national semifinal, and trying to extend the lead before the half.

    LOL, ACC

    The idea that a team having one less G5 opponent than they would prefer is a "problem" that needs to be solved is absurd.

    LOL, ACC

    Its cute that they think there is still a P4.

    Best Gopher Shooter ever...

    The most impressive gopher shot I ever saw was in 2014-15 when Carlos "Squirrel" Morris elevated for a straightaway three and somehow managed to launch the ball straight backwards on a line drive trajectory. I can imagine how a player might lose their grip and drop the ball behind them, but...

    Curt Cignetti

    It seems like there's a lot of revisionist history with the extent to which Cignetti had some bizarrely elite roster purchased by an outrageous NIL infusion. If that is actually what happened, we should be able to look back at all the preseason articles telling us about what a wildly stacked...

    Who Do You Want To Play In A Bowl?

    I used to always just want a P6/P5/P4 team because I wanted to beat a recognizable school from a solid conference. We still say P4, but realistically, after the most recent realignment, it feels like there is really a P2, with the Big 12 and ACC being in a separate tier between B1G/SEC and the...

    8 win seasons could be tough

    We could have gone 9-3 without needing to win a single game against a major conference team with a winning conference record. Easier said than done, but we can get to 8 wins without needing to upset the Ohio States or Oregons or even Iowas of the world. Not poo pooing our big Axe victory. I am...

    POST GAME THREAD!!! Gophers Beat Badgers for 4th Time in 5 Years!!!

    That drive that started with about 7 minutes left was baffling (your word, and it was the perfect word). I bet if you looked at one of those in game win probability models, our chance of winning was increasing even as they were getting first downs. But even before that, in a game where quick...

    Poll: What’s PJ Fleck’s 1st Stupid Decision Today in game vs Wisky.

    The 4th down timeout was necessary because two of our players were dancing and hugging 20 yards behind the line of scrimmage while wisconsin was lining up for the next play.
