    Gophers vs West Virginia in Guaranteed Rate Bowl

    Not that much cheaper. We are looking. Air was still over $600.

    Why did Wisconsin get Las Vegas over us???

    Because we've learned that for the Gophers to get the Bowl game they've earned they must finish 2 games ahead of all other teams in the overall record.

    Gophers vs West Virginia in Guaranteed Rate Bowl

    I think they should be. It's hard to take the Outback seriously when they're willing to put a 4-5 team on New Year's Day.

    Gophers vs West Virginia in Guaranteed Rate Bowl

    If they can make it affordable to get there. My family of 3 spending $2400 on airfare is a likely no go.

    Gophers vs West Virginia in Guaranteed Rate Bowl

    I don't normally say this during bowl season, but I hope PSU, WI, and Purdue are all embarrassed. Badly. The bowls don't care who wins, but they care if the score is close and the games are entertaining. Yes, tickets are already sold, but TV ratings also matter. The B1G cares that the...

    Gophers vs West Virginia in Guaranteed Rate Bowl

    This doesn't hold up. Let's look at PSU only. They are 7-5 and 4-5 in conference. So it's not about W's and L's. They share 3 L's with us as well as having the extra 2 in conference and 1 overall. The Gophers sent over 8,000 fans to the Outback Bowl and were lauded by the local Tampa...

    Moving on...

    This won't be a pushover win. They do play tough teams in the Big 12. That Oklahoma game may be their best of the season. Team will have to show up prepared, which seems to be a challenge when they're "playing down" to an opponent.

    Gophers vs West Virginia in Guaranteed Rate Bowl

    I doubt it. They'd still have taken 6-6 MD to the Pinstripe. Why take a 6-6 Gopher team over a 6-6 MD team when they didn't want a 8-4 Gopher team? Guarantee Rate is the last bowl to select a team. We didn't have a lower option. Thought, admittedly, Phoenix is better than NY for a bowl in...

    Gophers vs West Virginia in Guaranteed Rate Bowl

    I'm still really upset about this for some reason. Like I feel really insulted on behalf of the Gophers. I shouldn't but I do. It's hard to fathom this because had we finished 6-6, we'd be IN THE SAME BOWL.

    PJ Targeting Ciarrocca for Return as OC?

    Maybe. I mean, they announce heads coaches in 3 minutes though. It's odd this has run into 8 days with early signing day coming up. I get he's not as important as the HC, but some offensive players very much may care who the coach is and what their style is. It's getting weird.

    Gophers vs West Virginia in Guaranteed Rate Bowl

    Everyone keeps saying this. Penn State lost to the same Illinois we did. And Iowa. And Ohio State. Same losses we had. So somehow them doing it is New Year's Day worthy and us doing it is sloppy leftover worthy. Look, I'm fine they're not in the Outback. But they should be in Vegas.

    Gophers vs West Virginia in Guaranteed Rate Bowl

    Well, this certainly isn't the Fiesta Bowl committee who manages Guaranteed Rate's fault. They were last to select. They should be ecstatic they get an 8-4 team vs. a 6-6 Maryland or a non-B1G had we not had a qualifier. So, no need to be mad at them. Can certainly be mad at the B1G...

    Gophers vs West Virginia in Guaranteed Rate Bowl

    PSU also lost to IL, Iowa, and OSU. We share 3 losses and they’re placed 4 bowls above in ” placement” order? BS. We will go as we’re trying to end the stereotype on Gopher travel. Will probably be us and 3 others. Oh well. Play angry.

    Week 13 Bowl Projections Thread

    WV is not a push over. They played Oklahoma within 3, beat Iowa State… we will have to show up and not play disappointed.

    Week 13 Bowl Projections Thread

    Please. Rightfully earning the Outback Bowl via record and falling to the last B1G selection remaining is a slap to the face. Falling behind PSU, plus WI, plus Purdue, plus MD is a joke. All teams we beat or had a better record than. If we landed in Vegas fine. Nashville, maybe. But to get...

    And PJ earned better. The others didn’t. This is a farce.
