November 23, 20196 yr All they need to do now is go 1-0 in their next four seasons and they win the national championship.
November 24, 20196 yr Watching Oregon now... If gophers beat Wisconsin and lose to Ohio State, I really hope they play Oregon in the rose Bowl. Herbert has a big arm, but isn't accurate at all. I think gophers would beat them handily.
November 24, 20196 yr Gameday is coming. 10" of snow possible. BT West on the line. Playoffs still possible. This. Is. Epic.
November 24, 20196 yr Is that the most points scored by Northwestern in a Big Ten game this season? Worrisome.Nah. Score effects. 28-9, 5 minutes into the 3rd. The 4th Q was a victory lap.
November 25, 20196 yr Is that the most points scored by Northwestern in a Big Ten game this season? Worrisome.It wasn't that worrisome. Though I don't understand why NW didn't use that QB a lot sooner. Night and day vs the starter. If they hadn't knocked the NW starter out, they may have won 42-2.
November 27, 20196 yr Just a 48%? Wow, that is harsh. Gameday is set up in the mall. The next 3 days are going to be torture.
November 27, 20196 yr Former Gophers Chris Streveler and Drew Wolitarsky celebrating at the Grey Cup parade for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. The Bombers captured the CFL championship this past Sunday. Strev was hilarious and clearly having a good time, lol.
November 27, 20196 yr Those bleachers look totally safe!!People always flock to the state-of-the-art facilities, at least for the first few seasons.
November 28, 20196 yr Just a 48%? Wow, that is harsh.Well, there are six one-loss teams, and four of them are currently ahead of the Gophers in the poll. They would have to climb over three of the four to make the playoff, assuming Clemson and LSU are locks. I also assumes Minnesota would move ahead of OSU if it beats them. The easiest way to leapfrog other one-loss teams is for them to lose. These are the results we need to root for, right? Auburn beats Alabama this weekendOregon beats Utah in the Pac10 championshipLSU beats Georgia in the SEC championshipBaylor beats Oklahoma in the Big 12 championship And also, Michigan beats OSU this weekend

If gophers win out, they have the best 1 loss resume in the country, and arguably better than lsu, easily better than Clemson. No way they are left out. The stupid rankings have 3 SEC schools in the top 5, it is a joke. I'll be rooting for Alabama, Georgia, Utah to lose.
November 30, 20196 yr Anyone at College Football Game Day?? Looks frigid in the home land today.I am not. And yes it is.
November 30, 20196 yr Ugh... bad throw. Morgan should have done literally anything else with the ball.
November 30, 20196 yr Conditions are making it closer than it should be. Gophers look like a much better team. A few plays haven't gone their way.
November 30, 20196 yr That was uhh... quite the kickoff formation.I ****ing hate their kickoff formation. Have the entire year. There is a reason why traditional formations with specific lanes exist.
November 30, 20196 yr Pathetic effort. Offensive and defensive line are getting dominated. Linebackers are getting exposed. Probably should have taken the points instead of going for it on 4th and 5 with a bunch of time left. Defense is getting rolled.
November 30, 20196 yr Got out coached today. Wisconsin was a step or 2 ahead of the Gophers since the 2nd quarter. Sigh...
November 30, 20196 yr One win against a real team, and that was lucky. Hopefully next year they will change my mind.
November 30, 20196 yr Not a great game but i think this board might be a bit harsh. I don't think any of us thought this was a top 10 team coming into the season but we will finish 10-2 with a bowl game yet. Our two losses were a blowout today and a very winnable game against a ranked Iowa team that we looked like the better team for most of that game. I think the Gopher's future looks better than anytime since at least the Mason era but probably since Lou. Agree that the team wasn't able to make adjustments and really surprised they didn't target Batman more but Wisconsin was the better team, period. I'm unimpressed with our big OL.
December 1, 20196 yr They'll still field a team for the bowl game and in 2020. Sucks no rose bowl, but what can you do? The biggest pieces they lose is Johnson, Coughlin and Smith. This is still a talented young team. Hopefully Fleck can inject some talent into the D line and LB next year. It is clear after playing Iowa and Wisconsin how much of a difference they can make. I'm still rowing the boat. Fleck and co are tough and play with heart. I'm not bailing on them after as couple losses. This team deserves a bunch of respect for going 10-2 with a likely new years day bowl game.

They've literally only beaten one good team. That one was a good win, but it's still just one. The rest of the wins were against awful teams.

I agree with your general premise about the strength of schedule but I would argue that Georgia Southern was a bit better than awful. They did knock of a top 20 team and finished with a winning record.

For context, LSU - an actual great team, beat Georgia Southern by 52 points.
