LOL!!!!SHOCK. THE. WORLD.
That is the objective, that is the opportunity. Put this program on the fn map with a win at The Shoe, on national prime time TV, under the lights. It happens, not often, but it does happen. It may take a perfect game from us and an abysmal game from them, but why not us, why not now?
Can't play 3 yards and cloud of dust. Can't get FGs inside the 10. Can't turn the ball over. Have to take their big play punches and a couple of bad calls from the officials. We must overcome it all. We must be perfect. But I believe.
SHOCK. THE. WORLD.
GET 'ER DONE FLECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t think it should be that way. But it is that way because of television and the importance of having the best teams in the playoffs. The talent differential is enough for Ohio State to beat us, probably pretty easily, but the calls and non-calls should bemake it a certainty.
2nd and 3rd Degree burnsAfter a pass breakup in the first quarter...and telling the crowd to hush....Nestor has been getting smoked. Repeatedly.
Always a good strategy to make the RB gain 5 yards when only 1 yard is needed. Especially when the best defense in college is expecting exactly that play called. No deception.Hate being in the shotgun on 4th and short.
Oregon is not.Oregon and OSU are far beyond anyone else in the B1G.
I’m not a big conspiracy guy, but with such a money grab going on these days it makes sense conferences would protect their top teams.Yeah, except for the small handful of blue bloods, college football is really a competition to see who's the next best. It's damn near impossible to go against the former champion and #1 contender on the road. It requires not only beating the team, but also beating the refs and a huge stadium of fans.
You'll see a fair game MI vs OSU, but not MN vs OSU. That kind of upset can't happen.
Glen Mason knocked off #2 Penn State at Penn State.Name them? They've beaten a #1 ranked school?
Look at Phillip Daniels. PJ recriuted him as a 3 star. Developed into a starter. Transfered to OSU to be in the Bowl Championship Series. Blue Bloods have all the advantages.Ohio State can buy top teams indefinitely now with NIL, players being paid by schools, and transfer at any time. The rich get richer, the poor will get poorer - and Minnesota will not be among the rich. Coaches also will move to the better teams because that is where thee big money will be and the best shot at playoffs and national championships. The game is being ruined, and as it is with almost every other major problem in the US, Congress will do nothing - while the NCAA has been neutered.
Better, more experienced coordinators might be the best strategy to move the needle some.Finding and developing players and finding really good coaches and coordinators is the way to get to the next level. Unless we somehow get more NIL funds, out recruiting teams isn’t going to happen until we can string some big seasons together.
Never seen you before.This is why Fleck continues to get extended after 7-5 seasons. Administration knows fans won't "get all bent out of shape" about the mediocrity year after year.
I'd love for Gophs to score 15.Indiana loss big to OSU last yr. 15-38
