    Central region is set, five NSIC teams are in. SMSU made it in, couple road win and the regular season title must have gotten them over the hump.

    2024-25 Gopher Hockey Season

    Yeah, I guess I was thinking at least like last weekend they were playing a hot Penn State team and earned a split. Different story with this Notre Dame team.

    2024-25 Gopher Hockey Season

    This series has been difficult to watch. I get Notre Dame is the desperate one here but the Gophers have just looked out of sorts all weekend.

    Poll: Should Mark Coyle give Ben Johnson a 5th year?

    Big shocker, but I voted no. I did so based on the resume. Overall record, 56-70 (.444), B1G record, 22-57 (.278). Biggest accomplishment? One NIT tournament win? A single win against Iowa? Johnson has the worst win percentage of any Gophers coach in history who was here longer than two years...

    Yup. MSU-Moorhead is already clinched. I think Winona, Concordia, and Minot are locked in. That puts the decision around UMD, Mankato and SMSU. Mankato is probably out with 12 losses, so it's somewhat of a toss-up with SMSU and UMD. I lean toward SMSU because they won the regular season title...

    I remember he'd go to boards of other teams that were playing the Gophers in the non-conference to hate on us. And posters from other boards would be so confused about why he hated Minnesota so much.

    CBS: If Big Ten, SEC programs want to keep fans engaged, they should move to 10-game conference schedules

    Can't say I particularly agree. I like the non-conference slate. It's good getting some experience against something different regularly. The Big Ten has protected rivalries and marquee match-ups happen every year regardless. Plus I think it's beneficial having the easier slate to start off the...

    CFN’s “First Look” 2025 Big Ten football rankings (Gophers #10)

    Wow, I'm impressed. I figured Nebraska would be ranked ahead of Minnesota. I question Michigan State and, to an extent, USC. But the rest of the teams ahead in this ranking seem about right considering their record Vs. the Gophers and recent success.

    Vote for MN for UNISWAG throwback uniform of 2024

    Ok, I need a little more insight from the Illinois voting folks. What is the standout here? To me the collar looks weird (like it's divided into sections?), the helmet with the leather design looks kind of tacky and I've never been a fan of big logos on the front of the jersey like that. Also...

    Vote for MN for UNISWAG throwback uniform of 2024

    I picked Minnesota of course because those were clean and we won a national title in those back in the day. However, if the Gophers weren't on the list, I would have voted Colorado State, those were nice. Also, sorry, but no on Illinois. It may be a throwback, but that doesn't mean it looks...

    Wow - Marcus: Johnson is arguably at a point in his tenure when he might also need for people to be patient with him.

    Sure, but at the same time, in their first four seasons, Monson, who took over the program after the Haskins situation, had three winning seasons with three NIT berths. Tubby had three years with 20 or more wins, four winning seasons overall, an NIT berth and two NCAA berths Pitino had two...

    Who was your team growing up through HS and College?

    I was into football and hockey growing up but it took me a while longer to really get into basketball. Originally wasn't into it when I was younger. I was already a fan of the Gophers in other sports, though. Grew up in northern Minnesota so they were who I always rooted for. The basketball...
