I am in the midst of re-watching the game, and I am not too upset with the OL play. The mistakes that I saw, for the most part, were mental and were all correctable. Interestingly, the two most glaring examples happened when they were backed up in their own zone: 1. In the first half, Kirkwood...

Most of my posts on here have been scheme-related, so I will give my take on what I saw: I'm not worried about the gameplan because it was vanilla, very vanilla, and that was by design. They rarely motioned on offense, did not show many different formations, and worked on basics. Power, inside...

Only 8 seniors on the travel roster! The Gophers have the depth and experience of an inexperienced high school team that lacks depth. Seniors win football games, and depth takes time to fix. The team looks better than last year, and next year the team will look better than it does this year...

I am watching the 2005 MN/Michigan game right now (day off, crappy tv on, it was available for free on-demand). There was some big time star power on that Michigan game. What I noticed was how Mason's offense gave them a chance to win a lot of games. By controlling the clock and keeping the...

One of the blogs I read has a Gopher fan as a writer. Occasionally he writes about some Gopher-related things, and the latest article was one of those. There is some interesting/funny stuff in there that people might enjoy: www.sitetobenamedlater.weebly.com

Assuming it is Oregon vs. Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl, I think Oregon will score 50 in the game. If Michigan State was able to exploit Wisconsin's lack of perimeter speed, Oregon should light it up. The question is how Oregon will respond defensively.

We can argue about who was outcoached, etc., but those are value judgments that cannot be proved. What we saw from a football perspective was clear: 1. Dropped/whiffed balls at tough times 2. No line push 3. An opposing WR corp that got great separation from the Gopher DBs 4. Missed tackles...

The momentum has shifted...with a loss. Sign up and be a part of it. I think The Bank is going to be loud on Saturdays.

I have read the tweets. I need more. I NEED MY FIX! HELP ME OUT!

Bjorklund has been advertised as someone with good feet and quickness for his size. Given the number of OL in this class, has anyone heard anything about him being looked at as an interior DL? Let me know if I am way off base on this one.

Leaving before his senior year with one year of eligibility left. This ALWAYS works out well for a kid who does this, right?

Does anyone have any thoughts on whether stars matter in recruiting? We should discuss.

I need a good Kill t-shirt. Any good ones out there?

I just don't get him. I just don't. -Does he think it is his duty to squash any enthusiasm? -Is he just trying to get to defeatist MN readers by playing the "hold your horses" card? -Is he just a coward who is afraid to say that he believes in anything? -Does he want to appear like a hardass...

Hoke: Pay raise Mullen: Significant pay raise Edsall: New job, pay raise Kill: New job, pay raise Looks like those associated with our search have done pretty well for themselves. Minnesota just keeps on giving!

Surprised that Chryst spread it out for the 2 pt. conversion. Anyone else?

He has to deal with hundreds of emails from wack-jobs every time another internet rumor is started. Sounds like a terrible job.

I'm hoping someone is keeping track of the overreactions on this board to each false rumor. I haven't written them all down, but if someone collates them all, I think we should vote on the best one.

Has there been any indication on when the announcement will be made?

Pretty good column. I agree (maybe for the first time ever) with his sentiments. The program can be successful and can be relevant on a national level. Reusse does a lot of bashing, so it makes me feel good to hear that he still believes in the ability of the program to turn things around...
