There have been several games with Iowa in recent years where the Gophers have lost despite being the better team. Things tend to even out so but these recent games have more than evened out 2010 and 2011 when the shoe was on the other foot.
39!
Here is a 39 yard pass play to Devin...
The most “on brand” Minnesota message board conversation this week has to be this debate over how soon our 0 starts QB will transfer IF he has a big season.
42!
Time for some Drew Wolitarsky love. His 42 yard TD reception on a halfback pass was a thing of beauty.
If I recall, this game included a bear hug holding out in the open field for all to see that was ignored by the refs on an Iowa touchdown.
Being ranked near the bottom of 2025 B1G QBs and in "Tier 6" on the Athletic's all-college QBs list should provide other slaps that have reached Vaudeville or Three Stooges levels.
Lots of opportunities to provide crow sammys for the media and Arkansas coaching staff.
Tier VI ! Go Gophers! I love the comment about how Zach Pyron transferred in and transferred out... sort of reading like "awe shucks, I guess Lindsey gets the job by default now," which makes it look a lot worse than Pyron heading right out the turnstile immediately after seeing he had no...
Thank you for the clarification. I shot from the hip on that one. So did the Gophers play San Jose State at home two years in a row? That screwed my memory up.
I was at that game too. We had non-football-loving guests along and ended up going to a bar to watch the rest of the game during the...
I like the B1G model MUCH more because it minimizes the BS early season polling that annually artificially rewards SEC teams and guarantees they will reach the end of the season with a bunch of highly ranked teams. They can't lose. Even when they do eventually lose conference games (like...
43!
September 21, 2013 - the Gophers dispatched San Jose State 43-24 in what was a weird weather game with an extended second half stoppage, if my memory serves me. EDIT: My memory did NOT serve me. Apparently the Gophers played SJSU two years in a row at home and the weather delay I was...
I keep looking at Wisconsin's schedule and unless they are better than expected, I really think 3-9 is possible. Maybe they will pull a rabbit out of the hat to save their coach's job but that is a really difficult schedule.
My daughter will be a senior there (yeah, I know) and she was...
I never tailgated there but I was really happy it existed. I guess it just made too much sense. Frustrating. Minneapolis needs to take notes from other B1G cities and allow tailgating in private lots within X miles of the stadium. Anything that would increase the ability for occasional...
44!
Donovahn Jones had a 44-yard touchdown pass from Mitch Leidner against Iowa on November 8, 2014.
That was a wonderful day at the Bank with the Gophers steamrolling the Squawks 51-14
That is the beauty of tailgating. You arrive many hours before kickoff and are in no rush when the game is over. Plus Saturdays are a bit better traffic-wise.
45!
The 2022 win over Wisconsin was the game I realized I must have way more Gopher football knowledge and insight compared to the rest of you when I reached the conclusion the Gophers were going to take a huge leap forward with the talents of Athan Kaliakmanis filling the QB role.
The...
