"Seventeen games scheduled for this weekend have been postponed or canceled. That number was 15 last week, 10 the week before that." Odds are, the number will rise again next week. If the Gophers happen to be among the games impacted and (oh no!) takes down Wisconsin's title hopes, what a shame...

If covid cases keep skyrocketing and that's the last we see of Gophers football for a while, at least it was a win.

I just keep reminding myself that this season cost me $0. That's about the only bright spot.

I never thought it would be possible to see a worse defense than 2007, but here we are.

Kelly Leeks is the only one to return from the dead, he gets my vote.

Iowa and Wisconsin both went winless in the Big Ten that year and finished a combined 1-17 overall when not playing each other (a tie). Glory days, indeed.

It's a Texas blog from Austin, so Jerry Kill-to-TCU is a local angle.

Athlon has the Gophers finishing 9-3 (6-3 B1G) and facing Louisville in the newly renamed Duke's Mayo Bowl in Charlotte. Wisky predicted to go 7-2 to win the West and lose to 13-0 tOSU in Indy.

Notre Dame-Wisky is at Lambeau. I can't bring myself to ever root for Wisky, but a Notre Dame loss is always sweet.

The top non-playoff SEC team has always been the Citrus Bowl. Then the Outback, Gator, Music City, Liberty, Texas and Belk bowls were clumped together with the league office choosing which teams go where. I'd be cool with the Gophers in Charlotte, but hopefully not Virginia again. One bowl...

Far too many moments to list (good and bad) but one that sticks out is Gary Russell's run at Michigan in 2005. I had started a new job and was required to work an event at Mall of America that day. We had just gotten back from driving to State College and back the previous weekend to see the...

CFN lists the Camping World Bowl, which is not part of the B1G bowl lineup (still ACC vs. Big 12). Still, not a bad list of options. Would've liked to see the Gator Bowl stick around just for something new, but won't complain about possible repeat trips to Nashville or Phoenix.

And Tanner Morgan 10/1 odds to win the Heisman, behind only Trevor Lawrence, Justin Fields and Kedon Slovis. Insane.

Outback and Citrus bowls had very similar turnouts, though I thought the Citrus might've been slightly ahead. Holiday lagged for many reasons (distance, December 26th vs. January 1st, opponent, boycott controversy), which was a shame because San Diego was probably the best destination of the three.

Yeah, that was a nice day at the park.

No idea if it got on TV, but it was loud enough in the stadium for the writers in the press box to hear it. From The Oregonian yesterday...

And people thought our timing was curious. Chip Kelly rumors in overdrive.

<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> I was on the flight out of San Diego to Dallas with the Mayes family, told Connor congrats on the win, to enjoy the offseason and we'd see him in the spring. No idea it would be such an eventful week!

The Gopher basketball and hockey teams playing at Madison Square Garden in January 2018 probably makes it highly unlikely the football team would be in play for the Pinstripe Bowl in 2017 -- no way they'd ask Gopher fans to travel to NYC twice in three weeks. In turn, that might make the...
