I thought of that comparison as well. It would be awesome if that materializes.

Nebraska 35 Gophers 21 Nebraska's Emmet Johnson outgains Darius Taylor and Mike Max goes on interminably about how the Gophers didn't recruit Johnson.

Well, they used to be. Hard to believe this is true at a level, but in our sports-crazed win-at-all-costs and ignoring any sense of decemcy it's par for the course. For the record, I thought Franklin was a decent coach although I found him a bit over-the-top at times.

I just got back from my proctologist. He said that there was a lot of good on the film. I still had some nasty-looking hemorrhoids, but he thought there would be more when he first took a look.

I think it's a combination of recency bias and the current saturation of sports in the national media environment. When a highly-recruited guy failed in the past, the reaction was almost always localized. Since the nationalization of fan bases, reactions are now larger. I take no joy in...

After watching Brosmer druing the Vikings's pre-season (which may not qualify as actual football) I wonder if we ever really got to see the entirety of his game last year. There was a jump up in competition and Fleck loves an efficient game manager, but I saw Brosmer launch a couple of longer...

100%. The downside of getting more exposure is that the player opens themselves up to more scrutiny and every mistake is seen by a larger audience.

True on the need for money, but the other element is playing for a helmet school increases a player's exposure. That can be either good or bad, but it has to be considered.

Kind of Christian Hackenberg redux. Highly-ranked out of HS and obviously talented, but something missing from their games. For all their success, Penn State hasn't been blessed with top-tier QB play.

I really have to disagree. If you put something on X/Twitter, it's like you are havig a press conference. Maybe a little press conference, but a alert to the press nonetheless. If may be shoddy journalism on Greder's part, but one would think that Kaliakmanis the Elder would realize in a...

My points stand. Who gives a crap about what Mr. Kaliamakis has to say and I hate when parents start spouting off about stuff related to their kid. If it went on Twitter/X, he knew someone was going to pick it up. Free speech and all, but it's effin' annoying.

I don't care if it's Deion or Mr. Kaliakmanis, I really hate it when parents start yakking to the press. Deion gets somewhat of a pass because he was the head coach coaching his son, but who really cares what Mr. Kaliakmanis has to say?

Like last year, it will depend on how we do in the close games. We managed to win a lot of one-score games last year with clutch plays on both offense and defense. Hard to get a read right now.

I don't think there should be any concerns about Brosmer's arm strength. The ball Thielen dropped (bad drop) was zipped and the coverage was tight.

It only figures. I mean, Altmeyer is like 53 years old, isn't he?

But what did John Coatta say?

Watched off=and-on for parts of the first half as I was flipping between games. Wisconsin, for lack of a better term, looked terrible. As someone above wrote, they had trouble running the ball and Edwards was supposed to be their savior at QB. Their only hope is that he stays on the field...

USC probably has the best track team in NCAA football. Problem is, it's football and not track.

I only watched the first half and then caught the final score. It must have been a pretty ugly second half. Kaliakmanis looks much better at Rutgers than he did for us. Coaching or system or what else? Strong is an awesome WR who will be playing on Sundays. Gronowski is a clear upgrade for...

It was a great tackle, but the receiver fell down and it would have been an easy throw. Still and all, big open field hit.
