21-7 at half. No idea who wins but Wisconsin is making this top 4 very intereseting right now. They are paving the way for the committee to get it just like they want it: 1. LSU 2. Clemson 3. Georgia 4. Alabama [&o]

Jeff Jesser -> RE: Gopher Football (12/7/2019 10:39:36 PM)
Damn, OSU did enough in the 2nd half to ruin the holiday party for the SEC committee. Err….I mean…the Committee

Mr. Ed -> RE: Gopher Football (12/8/2019 3:20:03 PM)
Auburn Outback Bowl Should be a big time test

Jeff Jesser -> RE: Gopher Football (12/8/2019 4:40:55 PM)
It's better than Alabama but still gonna be a tough one.

Yeap, give it to Harbaugh. He deserves the ass kicking [&:]

Phil Riewer -> RE: Gopher Football (12/8/2019 9:13:56 PM)
Actually Alabama is a bit down this year....OSU is the real deal. Wisconsin is playing really good right now. This is one of the best group of Big Ten teams in a while......I think Indiana and Illinois will be a handful in the mid bowls even.

Jeff Jesser -> RE: Gopher Football (12/8/2019 10:41:00 PM)
I always love your optimism Phil. No joke about that. That being said. Did you watch the LSU-GA game? I give you that isn't Alabama or even Auburn but oh my. Iowa and Wisconsin over powered our lines. We are making great strides but make no mistake. We aren't there yet. Auburn will be our biggest test of the year. Assuming, of course, they play their regulars. LSU looked like they could beat any NFL team yesterday. It was shocking.

TJSweens -> RE: Gopher Football (12/9/2019 8:45:25 AM)
Yep, it's one thing to break through to the next tier. It's another thing to be one of the best within that tier.

I am not optimistic actually....Alabama is a bit down but LSU, Auburn, and GA are not a joke. I do think the Big Ten is up this year. Wisconsin used 5 lineman against the RPO with success and they are very good but OSU wore them down (something we didn't do)---I think we dominated Iowa in the 2nd half but got our assets handed to us in the 1st half. We will have to score a lot against Auburn to have a chance.....best thing about bowl games is that Fleck can mix and match Redshirts in this game.

ESPN's take Outback Bowl: Minnesota vs. Auburn (1 p.m. on ESPN at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida) Jan. 1, 2020 I picked a Big Ten West team over Auburn last year and paid the price in humiliation. The availability of Derrick Brown and Auburn's defensive linemen is a question, and Minnesota could neutralize them with its RPO-based offense. But Auburn has played a much tougher schedule and boasts key talent advantages. Minnesota leads early behind big plays from Rashod Bateman, but Bo Nix and Auburn take control in the second half. Prediction: Auburn 31, Minnesota 20

Anybody hear what the injury status is to the big behemoth Faleele?

SoMnFan -> RE: Gopher Football (12/10/2019 2:41:36 PM)
ESPN released its top 150 college football coaches of all time This Gopher program used to be the shit. #23 Lou Holtz (10-12 here, in '84 and '85) #42 Fritz Crisler (one year here, 1930) #65 Bernie Bierman (too low imo) 5 Natty Titles #106 Henry Williams (136-33-11 in early 1900s) Outscored opponents 1,885 to 46 during a 35 game winning streak

bstinger -> RE: Gopher Football (12/16/2019 2:17:18 PM)
If the best players are going to skip the bowl games they might as well not have them. Can't the kids get an insurance policy or something to cover a major injury? You work so hard to earn that bowl appearance and then skip it, doesn't make a lot of sense to me. I get the financial reasons, but it doesn't make sense. They could've gotten hurt just as easily in the last game of the season. If I was an NFL GM I would be leery of guys that do this. They obviously put themselves ahead of the team. That will happen at contract time too.
