    Bye Week Lookahead

    Great Hammy. You went where I was not willing to go...:p

    Bye Week Lookahead

    Waning gibbous on Saturday (full Beaver moon was last night) and rising around 7:30 PM, so after the game. Guessing since beavers are aquatic animals this probably favors ducks more than hawks... P.S. There is a Kurt Vonnegut reference here that I did not touch.

    Bye Week Lookahead

    This thread can be moved to the Week 11 Other Games thread when it comes up but took a peak at the forecast in I-O-W-A City for the 2:30 matchup between the Hawks and the Ducks. This will be a far cry from Eugene weather on a typical mid-fall afternoon. Hopefully these ducks will be paddling...

    Home losses by year post Bierman

    Brewster's first season was the origin of the Bitter End Club. Watching Weber in the brand new spread offense completing 3 passes for a 3 and out over and over just can't be imagined unless you watched it. Completion for 2...completion for 3...completion for 3...punt...and so on. Very...

    Home losses by year post Bierman

    I look at that list of Mason team losses and I just figuratively shake my head. A lot of those were doozies versus Purdue and Northwestern with a number of OTs. We were in the middle in those days too. Some things don't change.

    2026 season tickets

    Yep, got my notice today too. It was somewhat interesting to receive this early and how this season has gone to date. Anywho, I typically don't renew until like a week to go...and then space out the payments. I guess a true Gopher fan would pay the full amount now so the Athletic Department...

    Postgame comments from Coach Fleck, Drake Lindsey, Jameson Geers, Jaxon Howard and Maverick Baranowski.

    Thanks Slab. Very good. The B1G Network Game in 60 ended with this same interview that I'd not seen yet. Obviously the RTB being "corny" was already on PJ's mind before the formal post-game news conference and Q & A. I'm more convinced than ever that the much stronger reaction in the new...

    6-3 including 4-2 in B1G! I got a kick out of Ryan Burns' "Go find joy" rant!

    I hear him with JG on the KFAN Gophers Weekly on Sunday mornings after a game. I can see how he might come across as smug but running GI...off which GH spun originally...gives a little credibility to do so. So not challenging the point but just noting the back and forth between those two is...

    6-3 including 4-2 in B1G! I got a kick out of Ryan Burns' "Go find joy" rant!

    Good analysis. Yes, quite Hawk-like indeed...and yes they grumble too (see you later Brian) but still go to the bowls to watch the Defense, Special Teams, waterboys, and whatever offense that might accidentally unfold at a neutral field. It is the I-O-W-A way under Ferentz.

    OT Games

    The Billds were very pissed for that one.

    Shama: The Golden Gopher 2027 lineup of Big Ten home games is a marketing dream for selling tickets.

    Technically, I don't think a GH poster can be a dink. Others may expound on what another GHer might be with this opinion but not me... As to the opinion myself, I just don't see it. Would be disappointed to see I'm wrong...and I know a lot of folks see snake oil sales right in line with the...

    Neal: Gophers’ unimpressive victory was survival rather than a bounceback

    A loss would have been unimpressive too. I'll take the W for this one.

    6-3 including 4-2 in B1G! I got a kick out of Ryan Burns' "Go find joy" rant!

    Great stuff. To the point of some of the other fanbases not quite where we are as a middle-of-the-pack developmental program in the B1G+ would trade with us in a heartbeat, here's the current standings for the middle and below... Not looking to trade places with PSU for example. . Heck...
