Agree Ed, Brooks would be my choice too.
We are running back U, not sure why, but we have been, thank God.
Been said before, but I love how our D likes to light people up, even when constantly threatened by penalty, they LIKE to hit.
And for the hundredth time .... Leidner is bad. He's worse than he's ever been. Its mind-boggling.

Ed, I completely agree about the B10 being awful. But here's the strange thing.... they have 4 of the top 7 ranked teams in the nation. I can't understand it.


Pretty easy...2 of the top 5 coaches in the nation...when Ohio State, Wisconsin, and Michigan don't go thru everyone in the conference like swiss cheese it makes the whole conference look good.

This times 1000. He is absolutely brutal. I'm not kidding when I say it. He's the worst constant starter of my lifetime of Gopher football. Even Mason was making fun of him on the broadcast and he loves EVERYONE.

ML literally missed a WR 5 yards down the field by about 8 yards.

+1
I saw the 10 yard pass (not even an out) that he missed by 3-4 yards and the receiver was open by 3 yards w/o any pressure.....a junior high kid can make that pass.

He has absolutely no touch - and even less accuracy. 34 TDs in 45 career games.

2 TD passes in 7 conference games so far this year. That includes a 5 game streak with 0.

He's so bad, I'd love to have Asad Abdul-Khaliq or Bryan Cupito instead...

If we had an accurate qb we could shred everyone on our schedule.

Leidner is brutally bad.

Rickey Foggie, we'd contend for the national title.

Hmmmm.
Weird, too, because he's a first-rounder.

I couldn't talk her into wearing maroon though. I guess being born and raised in Wisc she has become a Badger fan.

At least both of my daughters are Viking fans. Might be grounds for eviction if they weren't

We are pretty consistently better than Illinois, Indiana, Purdue, Maryland and Rutgers. We're about even with Northwestern and Iowa...maybe JUST a bit behind Iowa these last few years...but similar success/failures.

Looking forward to beating Wisconsin today.

3-0 Gophers.
