Minnesota Gophers NEED these five players to step up in 2026!

If the Minnesota Gophers are to meet or even exceed expectations in 2026, they are going to need these five players to elevate their play. This is not to say they were bad in 2025 BUT the Gophers will need them to be even better in 2026. Ross Brendel and Manny Hill discuss what they are hopeful to see from Drake Lindsey, Darius Taylor and more. The boys also bust out "Manny Mania" and quiz Manny on the 2017 Minnesota Gophers football team. Hint... Manny was more right than Ross gave him credit for if you know anything about the Barber family at the University of Minnesota.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
