    If Michigan beats Iowa: CFP - Michigan Rose - Ohio State Fiesta/Peach - Michigan State Citrus - Iowa Outback - Purdue Vegas - Wisconsin Music City - Minnesota Guaranteed Rate - Penn State Pinstripe - Maryland If Iowa wins, they get the Rose Bowl and bump Sparty to the Citrus. I don't think...

    Who’s your 4?

    Notre Dame will lose by 4 TDs or more, because that's what they ALWAYS do in major bowl games. And then they'll be ranked in the preseason Top 10 next year, and we'll do this nonsense all over again.

    Gophers likely to decline bowl invitation if offered per Greder

    Penn State will not play in a bowl. This might just end up being Ohio State, Northwestern, Indiana and Iowa.

    Gophers likely to decline bowl invitation if offered per Greder

    Brett McMurphy is reporting "a number" of Big Ten teams are declining bids, and more bowls will be canceled tomorrow. Certainly sounds like the Gophers are done til '21.

    Places you’ve seen (college) games and places you’d like to see games

    Of the 30 games you've listed, I was at 25 of them so that makes sense! I swore off going to Madison until we became competitive with them, so that accounts for most of the misses.

    Places you’ve seen (college) games and places you’d like to see games

    No Rose Bowl?

    California's restrictions on crowd size has the CFB Playoff considering moving the semifinal to Arlington, TX. End result would be no Rose Bowl game at all. With our luck, it's shocking this pandemic didn't happen in the year the Gophers finally make it to Pasadena.

    Current Bowl Projections

    Holiday was Pac-12 vs ACC this year so that wouldn't impact us, but underscores how tight the Pac-12's bowl picture is. They were down to three bids before a late agreement with the Armed Forces Bowl.

    Current Bowl Projections

    Doesn't matter in a year with no minimum requirements for bowl eligibility. Conferences will keep being offered bowl bids until every team in the league is placed or has opted out, so you could see teams like 3-7 Georgia Tech or Arkansas in the postseason. Conversely, the Pac-12 is down to four...

    Current Bowl Projections

    With three of the Big Ten's contracted bowls getting canceled and no minimum requirements preventing other conferences from filling their slots, there are relatively fewer openings. Assuming Ohio State and Indiana are in the NYD6 and Northwestern/Iowa are in the Citrus/Outback, the rest of the...

    It must suck being a Nebraska fan right now

    Playing Rutgers at 3 PM on a Friday is probably not how Huskers fans imagined Year 3 of the Scrote Era ending.

    Championship Week Game vs Wisconsin

    I'm sure Iowa would, but the league would probably rather protect Indiana's path to a NYD6 bowl, and as already mentioned, the Hoosiers also missed out on their rivalry game.

    Championship Week Game vs Wisconsin

    Rumors that Michigan is going to Iowa next weekend, so I'm guessing things will look like this assuming all teams can play: Ohio St/Northwestern Michigan/Iowa Penn St/Illinois Indiana/Purdue Minnesota/Wisconsin Michigan St/Maryland Nebraska/Rutgers

    All things bowl game cancelations and movements thread

    Celebration Bowl is the black colleges championship in Atlanta. Neither conference is playing this fall, but maybe that means they'll participate in the FCS playoffs in the spring?

    Shooter: Gophers football team is still in the hunt for at least one bowl game during this COVID-19 season — the Guaranteed Rate Bowl

    The Big Ten had a bunch of bowl tie-ins, but with the games in NYC, San Fran, and Detroit getting canceled, it's down to: NYD6/Playoff Orlando Tampa Nashville Charlotte Phoenix Gophers would probably be in the mix for that last spot with a handful of teams. Since fan base won't really be a...
