Gophers Ranked #25 in Coaches Poll

[beetlebum71]

Congrats to our favorite Rodents. Get a big W against Big Red this week, and it's very probable they start the year 8-0. The Nebraska game is a huge, season-defining game. Sure would be awesome to have a full, raucous Bank on Saturday!

It should be unless the weather is as bad as they are saying it could be.

[Straight Edge Raven]

Now that a MN Team is ranked its time for them to get skull fucked. I think Nebraska will beat up on them. Hope I'm wrong, but yeah.

[full force five]

Unless things go totally sideways this will be an 8-4 team. If they beat Nebraska 9-3, that's a dang good season.

That's the way it's been for goophers football now for nigh on 5 decades. Once they get ranked, they suck again.

38 degrees and a chance of snow

[Slap Shot]

They were last 6-0 in 2003 then it happened on (Friday?) night at the Dome.

[hategreenticemase]

Fucking night game hoses me, I cant go now. At least I cant jinx them now!

What is skull fucked? I’m not familiar...

[Bob Wiley]

Should be a good game. The running game is gonna be the key.

I believe NU has a pretty solid run defense, but iirc their pass defense is terrible.

Right. The gophers should be able to throw the ball, but if they can run the ball effectively too, they win.

Hate to agree but I'm not betting on the sun to set in the east either.

Please prove me............check that........please prove 50 years of history wrong.

The record sounds a lot better than what it is when you dig into it with the weak strength of victory.

Squeak by South Dakota
Squeak by a 2-3 Georgia Southern
Squeak by a 2-2 Fresno State

2-4 Purdue win
2-3 Illinois win

1-6 Rutgers (I'll count Rutgers as a W right now - They've scored 7 points in 4 Big Ten games. Their QB threw for 1 yard today @ IND)

For a good season from my end, I want to see a W against Penn State, Sconi or Iowa.

NU will be 1-6 pretty soon

This.

They have played absolutely nobody. Nebraska isn't good either.

[Hornets]

Well, we've had a boatload of lousy seasons so if this squad wins 8 or 9 I'm satisfied!!

[jffl_commish]

They'll be ranked in both and creep up to 22ish in the coaches?

And then comes November: Wisconsin, Iowa, Penn State

oh wow. Top 20 incoming? Should beat Rutgers easily next week, then after that you are looking at like #18 or #17...maybe move up another spot during the bye. Then beat Maryland...very likely #12-15 range. Then the challenging part of the schedule that could turn things into a nose dive.

Enjoy the season! its nice seeing the rodents beat teams they're supposed to beat. We haven't had that in a while

[j2j]

Try to be happy people, this has been a fun team to watch play. Enjoy the moment.

[feekdogg]

20 or better. And it's deserved.

NU will be 1-6 pretty soon

They are 4-3. Try not be clueless on every topic.

100%. Saw a decent thread on GH about how many fans in these parts are so quick to point out a soft schedule, while ignoring how soft other teams schedules in the top 25 might be as well. The level of competition the Gophers have had, specifically in the non-conference was definitely low, but all those teams are teams with winning programs. Those types of teams that have that winners mentality aren't push overs. We heard PJ talk in the lead up to all those games about how thats the type of culture he wants around here.

Are we talking about a different NU?

I'm talking about Northwestern is 1-4 right now with Ohio State next up.

The Gophers played Nebraska this weekend and is the NU I referred to. Why the fuck would I be talking about Northwestern already?

Probably. NW works better for Northwestern.
