    Daily Gopher Roundtable Q&A

    Our friends over at The Daily Gopher are launching a Round-table Q&A on the Big 10, and are gathering opinions and thoughts from the various Gopher writers, bloggers, and other sites from around the Twin Cities and the Internet. I feel fortunate to have the opportunity to give the GopherHole...

    Ted Valentine

    Surprised nobody posted this--Not sure if people on TV caught this at all, but anybody who was at Williams should have noticed that late in the game, Ted Valentine started yelling emphatically at the scorers table. Asked around after the game, and apparently Fran McCaffrey had been yelling at...

    Student Section's Back Must Hurt

    ...from carrying the energy level in the Barn for the entire game. This won't be received well, especially in light of the win, but the Barn should be embarrassed. Playing the number 8 team in the country, the rest of the arena was an absolute crypt. The team played their arses off the ENTIRE...

    WI Tickets

    Hey y'all--I know this should proooobably go in the ticket exchange forum, but this board gets a ton more views than that one does, so figured it'd be a good shot. Looking for a single ticket, anywhere in the arena for the Wisconsin game. Just decided to go today, and am scrambling to find...

    Penn State, Classiest team in the Big 10

    I was astounded, and yet enormously pleased to see Penn State leave the field immediately after the game. Almost every other team in the land would have grabbed the Victory Bell and trounced around the field. Not Joe Pa's Nittany Lions. They acted like they'd won before, and left the field...

    Offensive Scheme Change--can't hurt?

    Want to preface by saying that I place most of the blame for our horrific start on the defense. When giving up 29 points is the 2nd best defensive performance of the year, it's no wonder that we're 1-4 to date. That being said--one of the biggest excuses for Gray's lack of playing time at QB...

    Not a terrible effort--

    I think if we'd won last week, the mood in here would be completely different (kind of goes without saying, but I will anyway). Most of us would be happy with the performance they put on for ... 3 quarters ... today. That being said, and echoing dozens of other voices out there already, I'm...

    Rocky Top

    FWIW, I know a few GHers were yapping about this earlier in the summer...Band does have the music for Rocky Top. Whether we use it or not remains to be seen, but the band got it this week.

    Pregame Plaza Show...not quite University Ave, but...

    Sorry if this has been posted already, but the band plans on playing the plaza show on Oak Street between Mariucci and TCF. Nice upgrade from playing tucked in behind the MN Daily building last year. Also, University of South Dakota plans to bring their full band and perform at halftime...

    Absolutely Embarrassing By All the Non-Students

    Before anyone discounts this as a whiny, spur of the moment post-loss tirade, I'll say that I was discussing this very post with 10 minutes left with the Gophers up 6. I was absolutely outraged at the show of energy (or lack thereof) by everyone outside the student section. The Student Section...

    Royce video worth watching - he quits college basketball?

    Sorry if this has been posted elsewhere, though it was just posted around 3:30 AM on his Facebook, so I doubt it. I said I wasn't going to watch anything else he put out, but this one was solid. Kid seems pretty sincere, and actually does some talking without any shameless plug for any crappy...
