Doesn't get much more North Dakota than that. concussing yourself after whiffing on a cheap shot as you lose a NCAA Tournament game.
Jackson Blake hurt himself trying to make a pointless reverse hit, hope he's ok. Michigan will play Michigan State again, this time in a regional final

Scott Frost bragging about mistreating his players to an uncritical Nebraska media. Totally normal.
Scott Frost estimates there are 15-20 total vomits per practice from offensive linemen under new position coach Donovan Raiola. “It’s not because they’re not in shape – he’s just working them hard.” . More from @EvanBlandOWH:

Today is the day Iowa won the Big Ten West by being the least absolutely embarrassing. Borrowing a miracle for the god knows how many years in a row the Gophers will look back and realize they choked away their chance again. Just inexcusable.

If PJ Fleck doesn't make serious changes to his coaching staff at the end of this season he'll never be taken seriously again around here. You can't lose two games like Northwestern and today and be taken as a serious division 1 football team.

I know a lot of people feel College GameDay isn't what it used to be, but it is undeniably surreal to see the scene at Northrop Mall. What a moment for the program and a fitting cap to what has been a great regular season.

A masterclass in how to ruin a reputation. No one counted Kill out. He retired, fans supported him, and he's stepped on rakes ever since.
Post: Former #Gophers coach Jerry Kill has feeling he will get booed in return to Minnesota for the 2022 season opener. But New Mexico State coach is eager for chance: "I want to show people that, hey, you counted the old man out. You’re wrong. I’m back.”.

Haters: I can't stand P.J. Fleck because he makes it all about himself and not the players. Fleck: "I apologize to our fans for not getting it done, because it falls on my shoulders, 100%.". Haters: See! What did I tell you!.
Coach Fleck with a POWERFUL closing statement. A message to the true fans and the critics. Even a @DisneyFrozen reference in there! . #Gophers

Always great when PA is interviewing PJ and starts asking if he has ever thought about recruiting Australia after seeing Iowa have all these Australian punters. PJ: long pause. "Mark Crawford our punter is from Australia.". Yeah. .

Pretty wild to think Tyler Johnson went from catching passes from Tanner Morgan to catching passes from Tom Brady. It's a bit of a lateral move, but Brady's not bad.

One of the biggest flaws with Iowa fans is their inability to cope when something doesn't go their way.
One of the biggest flaws with the invalid signal call is slowing it down and making a judgement using super slomo. If it’s not obvious in real time it shouldn’t be called. In real time you can tell DeJean is using that left arm to run/keep balance.

If this Michigan player isn't suspended for the entire next series, the Big Ten isn't serious about player safety. That's assault.
