Minnesota Golden Gophers (official thread)

Returning QBs with the most TD passes in 2019

T-8. TANNER MORGAN | MINNESOTA | 30 TDS


Minnesota burst onto the scene under P.J. Fleck in 2020 with an 11-2 season, and Morgan was a huge reason why. Not only does Morgan have a year of experience under his belt — and a pretty great year of experience at that — but he also gets one of his favorite targets back. Rashod Bateman, who caught 60 passes for 1,219 yards last fall, is also back. That should help Morgan have a monster junior season.

Just sayin': Look put for Minnesota in the BIG West especially if they can replace their other receiver (i.e. Tyler Johnson). scUM gets them at TCF Bank Stadium this year.....:cool:

Previewing Minnesota’s Offense for 2020 
The Gophers lose the program’s all-time all-purpose yardage leader in running back Rodney Smith and a record-setting receiver in Tyler Johnson, but they have plenty of playmakers to fill the gaps. Among Minnesota’s seven returning offensive starters are second-team all-conference quarterback Tanner Morgan, and 2018 leading rusher Mohamed Ibrahim. Not a bad place to start.

Overall takeaways: P.J. Fleck's Gophers are considered the biggest challenger to Wisconsin in the Big Ten West. They're going to be losing the school's all-time all-purpose yardage leader in Rodney Smith, but star wide receiver Rashod Bateman has re-enrolled and hopes to play in 2020. The best news schedule-wise for Minnesota is that Ohio State is nowhere to be seen on it.

Just sayin': A mediocre scUM team is going to have all they can handle in their opening game, (i.e. at Minnesota). Minnesota should have a very good passing game as (apparently) WR Rashod Bateman opted back in.

Cincinnati faces SMU in 2020's best Group of 5 battle, and the Big Ten is back in college football's Week 8

Don't sleep on Minnesota


In case you haven't heard all week, Big Ten football is back this weekend. There's -- appropriately -- a lot of talk about Ohio State and Justin Fields. But one team that isn't being discussed enough, particularly in a wide-open Big Ten West, is Minnesota, which opens against Michigan. Quarterback Tanner Morgan is coming off a solid sophomore campaign in which he threw for 3,253 yards, 30 touchdowns and seven picks. Lucky for him, wideout and future first-round NFL draft pick Rashod Bateman opted back in and has been cleared to play this season. Going up against Michigan will be a nice early test and a barometer for what we might expect from the Gophers this season.

I'd actually like to see both teams lose; however, that isn't very likely. So Go Gophers!!!
