The whole situation is weird with the coach making what's basically a lateral move to Southern Miss after the stint at Marshall. Same conference, too.

Isn't it 7? With the 15 Quick Lane Bowl?

Oof, let's hope this game goes better than that one.

I'm glad the game is on a Friday, rather than them being in the middle of the week like the last few games played. It's different when they've been on New Year's Day like in 2014 and 2019. But for 2015, 2016, 2018, 2021, 2022 and 2023, the bowls were on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, usually...

This will be the 12th team from the current ACC that Minnesota has played. All time, Minnesota is 20-14-1 Vs. the ACC. Some of the teams in the ACC now were in different conferences when the Gophers played them, though. The most played opponent for Minnesota in the ACC is Pitt, with the Gophers...

Kind of surprised by that from Hawkeye fans, they won 8 games including all of their rivalry trophy games. Not an awful season. As for the Gophers, I have a feeling it will be Music City, but ReliaQuest would be awesome. Even if it's not on NYD anymore.

Minnesota State-Mankato will now advance to the semifinal and face Ferris State (Mich.). Ferris defeated the defending national champion Harding (Ark.) and won the title themselves in 2021 and 2022.

A bit surprising, I figured the committee would want Nebraska to play Oklahoma in a bowl since they're both 6-6. Good chance for a big crowd.

I think it would probably be the case. It would be one of a few bowl games played against opponents in their home states. 1962 Rose Bowl, Vs. UCLA, held in Los Angeles 1986 Liberty Bowl Vs. Tennessee, held in Memphis 2012 Care Care Bowl Vs. Texas Tech, held in Houston 2015 Quick Lane Bowl Vs...

It's been looking like it's mainly a toss-up between Duke's and Music City the last two weeks.

Here are some more from Monday USA Today projects Minnesota to play in the Duke’s Mayo Bowl Vs. Duke Action Network puts Minnesota in the Music City Bowl Vs. LSU Athlon Sports is predicting a Pinstripe Bowl berth for Minnesota Vs. Georgia Tech KSL Sports has Minnesota in the Guaranteed Rate...

After the game over the weekend, the Gophers have won the Axe in 2021, 2022 and 2024, while winning Floyd of Rosedale in 2023. This is the first such streak since the late 90s/early 00s, when Minnesota beat Iowa in 1998, 1999 and 2000, and then defeated Wisconsin in 2001. Including all trophy...

Another negative in my view with the Pinstripe Bowl was how low energy it was! Our fans made the most of it for sure, but even then, it didn't have much atmosphere with such a little crowd, and that was with a team from New York playing.

Purdue's in a tough spot. Even if they hired a good coach, say they found the next Joe Tiller, they now have to deal with a resurrected Indiana program, the expanded Big Ten and the new NIL reality.

Here's the lineup for what we have so far after rivalry week. ESPN’s Kyle Bonagura and Mark Schlabach both have Minnesota in the Pinstripe Bowl Vs. Georgia Tech (pls no) CBS Sports predicts Minnesota will play Duke in the Duke’s Mayo Bowl Sports Illustrated has Minnesota playing Louisville in...

The Minnesota State-Mankato Vs. Bemidji State game will take place Dec. 7. The winner will go on to play the champion of Super Region 3. Playing in the game to decide SR3 is Ferris State (Mich.), winner of the national title in 2021 and 2022, against Harding (Ark.), the defending national...

Y'know, I want to get into a good bowl, but Michigan pulling the upset was good to watch, too. So I'll take it. Let's go win wherever we go.

I'm surprised as well, and Leipold is a good coach. Shows how tough it is to win there. Makes that 2007 season stand out as such an anomaly.

FFS this is getting absurd.
