    OT Games

    On topic, when was the last Gopher OT game? My memory is thinking 2020 @ Maryland, in which we botched the PAT for the loss....

    OT Games

    2007 Purdue was a game in which I was watching at the Hilton sportsbook in Vegas. I was standing & cheering a blocked FG getting returned for a TD, only for Jamal Harris to drop the ball while running, which resulted in the entire sportsbook pointing & laughing at the Gophers & me. I did the...

    I see 2 more wins

    It was a frustrating game for sure, and there are definitely issues….but games are lost more often than they are won. Every team on the Gopjers schedule is capable of losing the game, except in my mind Oregon (talent outweighs any mistakes they’d make) & Iowa (they are the kings of letting...

    2025 Minnesota High School Football Thread

    Always some shadiness. The association I'm in has a rule that 1 head coach & 1 official assistant; there are other assistant coaches, but their kids are a part of the draft pool. This at least avoids the 1 head coach & 5 dads that are assistants so those 6 kids are automatically put on the...

    2025 Minnesota High School Football Thread

    Interesting article. SWML (EP, Chaska, Chan, Prior Lake, Orono, New Prague, Waconia) is supposed to do balance teams (always rumors whether a team or two is stacked), but does keep score & has small level of tiered playoffs, so perhaps a hybrid of the LMAA & full competitive football. I can...

    2025 Minnesota High School Football Thread

    EP over Moorhead 34-33. Roller coaster game. Moorhead scored TD with under :30 & went for 2. Got a half the distance to the goal penalty, but had pass batted down. #1 on Moorhead is LEGIT! Some questions for EP’s defense. But EP eventually able to roll on the ground. Should lock up 3...

    2025 Minnesota High School Football Thread

    After watching Tonka last week, the one thing I will say about the one-dimensional attack is the QB is a beast & seems to almost get 4 yards just by falling forward automatically. Add to that a pretty massive o-line & they can easily possess the ball for a long time. I think the 2nd half last...

    I understand about the 1-8 section rankings, but how are brackets determined?

    Memory lane - attending a game at the shoe

    Was there in 2000 & 2002. 2000 will always be one of the most memorable Gopher games I've been to. Ron Johnson was a man amongst boys. Their fans were generally pretty nice that day despite the loss. A few drunk students, but then they'd have someone in their group apologize for them. I...

    Recent history vs Ohio State

    Maybe we can say we have a neck injury & we split the victory? We've played a little with them in 14, 15, 18, 21. Maybe there really was no scare those years, but by no means were they embarrassments. Ya never know!!!

    Maybe he's more mad at how Dino was treated?

    The most Gopher Friendly Sandwich Shop I've Ever Been to

    Well, Goldy used to beat up on The Giant Sub during the Subway Shootout during hockey intermissions back in the late 90s/early 00s......perhaps that soured Subway's level of friendliness?
