I've seen quite a few of those, too. How about the Hail Mary pass vs. Northwestern or the game where the timekeeper fell asleep vs. Purdue?? I paid good money for those games, too!! haha
Thanks for all the painful memories - one that stands out for me that I didn't see mentioned was the 1990 Utah game that we were tied 29-29 with just a few seconds left in the game. The Gophers are going for a fairly easy FG to win the game. But wait -- it's BLOCKED. and returned about 80 yards...
I was embarrassed when Gopher coach Tim Brewster had his rivalry with him and said a bunch of things about him that he didn't like him etc. Brewster just wasn't very classy there. That guy can flat out coach and Brewster -- not so much.
Frost had that magical year in 2017 for UCF when they went 13-0 and beat Auburn in a bowl game so they are obviously hoping that it will work again. I bet he does pretty well - it's tough to win in a league full of sharks in the Big Ten.
Remember back in the day when "locking down the borders" meant you kept one guy from leaving the state such as Kevin McHale or Randy Bruer each year? Times have sure changed around here!

Does anyone remember Briggs? He was a regular about 20 years ago -- he loved linebackers. The more linebackers on the field at the same time, the better. I guess he was old school!
Some of the posters on here are indeed legendary and I admire the passion that some of them have on here. I think we all want our favorite team to win but there always seems to be several paths in how to get there and we don't always agree on which road to go on.
When I was young, the old...
The college football landscape is changing very quickly the last few years with new rules and different ways to build your team. The old school way saw teams dominate for years and years with very little chance to move up significantly.
We just don't know how all this will pan out the next...
When I coached we had 3 rules that we always gave at the very first practice. 1) Have fun 2) Play hard 3) Never -ever- quit.
One thing he will learn is by doing this he will tarnish his entire football career. 5-10 years from now he will not be known for any of his great plays, great worker or...
