Gophers vs Penn State 11/9 11am
I think Minnesota is foolish to fall for this PJ Fleck contract extension BS.. his people are pushing this before this weekends game.
its as transparent as a ziplock bag.
to the Game
Penn State has been on fire. Beat Iowa & Michigan
Minnesota hasn't played anyone.
Penn State wins 31-21 and it'll be closer than most think.
What say you?
Re: Gophers vs Penn State 11/9 11am
Goophers get their doors blown off. They haven't played anyone (besides SDSU). Buuuut, when you look at their scores so far this year, they appear to be getting better. They squeaked by their first four opponents (SDSU, Fresno, Georgia Southern, and Purdue), and then blew out the next four (Illinois, Nebraska, Rutgers, & Maryland).
And they have had a bye week to prep for the lions. So maybe they do keep it close on ABC.
I don't really know, Minnesota, like their professional sports team is a Jeckle and Hyde team that chokes at the worst time. Either they keep it close, lose or win. Or they get destroyed. I don't see any middle ground.
Re: Gophers vs Penn State 11/9 11am
Im expecting trick plays galore by PJ Fleck.
I can't believe the stupid twin cities media is falling for his handlers pushing this "extention" before he picks up his 1st loss. its actually embarassing if they don't understand they've played nobody.

I’ve got Minnesota by 4, 38-34. Biggest Gopher game in 50+ years!
It’s fun to see all the “they haven’t played anyone” talk when every year in my lifetime the Gophers have lost to shitty teams they should have beaten.
Ski-U-Mah! Row the Boat!

Gophers have always done pretty well outside (Mich, Ohio State, Iowa , Wisconsin) Cant wait for this game.
Re: Gophers vs Penn State 11/9 11am
I am interested to see if the Gophers can "break through" in this market. They are over shadowed by everyone... It would be interesting to see if they can generate a really healthy buzz down here.
That being said, in my completely un-informed opinion (and I watch almost none of their games) I have them losing by double digits.

What's the spread?
Actually, I don't care, give me PSU to cover with the over.
Re: Gophers vs Penn State 11/9 11am
Gophers I think will play right with them.
PSU is favored by 6.5 at 5D
Re: Gophers vs Penn State 11/9 11am
Why would u extend fleck b4 this game. Embarassing
Re: Gophers vs Penn State 11/9 11am
I still cant believe that gopher brass .. they must really not follow football. NDSU is 8-0 vs that schedule
