The more I think of it, the logic is so bad with this Reusse take that any counter point should also be ridiculous, just to point out how wacky the football = hockey opinion is. For example, Gopher hockey needs to take a long hard look at itself and maybe consider a coaching change because it...

Where would Texas Tech finished if they had been in the B1G this past season? Illinois-ish?

leave the most prestigious college football conference to step down the the Big 12 to join the assembly of other purchased players in a dusty cow-town.

Minnesota produces more NHL hockey talent than any other state, and it isn't close. And the Gophers have the most entrenched hockey program right in the middle of all this talent. To compare hockey to ANY other sport at the U (especially football) is not only apples and oranges, it is apples and...

The feelings that the SEC is the center of the college football universe are deeply ingrained at places like Auburn.

Maybe my imagination but everything seemed off with him this year. When the going gets tough, transfer

I actually feel bad for Alabama with all their futility trying to keep up with B1G speed and athleticism

I would be interested to see how often Missouri was ranked before and after joining the SEC. Shame on USC for raining on the B1G bowl party.

SEC will tell you about the depth of their teams and the depth of their league… but their opt outs hurt more than yours

It is interesting how the SEC kool aid is served so regularly and at such high quantities, you can actually see it being regurgitated in small amounts on Gopherhole. It can't be denied that it is effective, because it shows in any/every non-objective human opinion based poll. I get a kick out...

I have talked to a couple people over the years that are regular readers of Gopherhole but would “never” post here for fear of all the sniping that takes place here. I have to admit the same concern gave me a little pause when I began posting here back in 2009. But I shrugged it off, posted, and...

Gopher defense is in regular season form!

Change is hard. I get that. There was a certain “coziness” about the bowl system where only two or four teams had to prepare for the games of their lives. We will lose that coziness. The bowl system and even conference championships seem to be on borrowed time. I will definitely miss the days...

My wife and I are attending an ugly Christmas sweater party tomorrow night organized by the same set of all the parents we "grew up with" together as our kids all played hockey from K-12. The bond is indeed very tight. We still hang out and our kids haven't played together in 8 or more years.

If this was his take on just this year's rate bowl - I would also find the opinion to be bizarre and somewhat fascinating. But as a couple others have pointed out this isn't an isolated opinion. Apparently this guy has felt the Gophers were going to be blown out by their previous two bowl...
