    Iowa over Michigan

    Well, Harbaugh and Co. certainly won some respect for taking out the Bucknuts and that $$$ contribution the staff made was admirable. And then, well its still IA, and who hates IA?

    Fundamental Changes in Gopher Football

    This after we were entertained with Freddie Mercury Gopher, 0 Allen, situational music never heard before in the worn-out official NCAA list and less screeching co-ed announcements - it made for a much classier feel. The team did it on the field and the media and PS people kept the vibe going.

    Would expanding CFB playoffs create more parity? Interesting article on it from The Athletic

    MplsGopher, "Or putting in a top recruit distribution system (ie, P5 Draft). That is probably the least likely to happen." Yes, parish the thought! This is about amateur athletics, when we have the NCAA manipulating which schools a kid can consider, we travel down the path of a semi-pro league...

    Season thoughts

    OC was a disaster, didn't know the talents of the players, used a backwater technique to call plays and called a timid game. Got to grow or go.

    Playing at the Next Level

    Just about pulling my hair out with some of the coverage of the bowl games so far. So, in our household we started playing a game: 1. A "ding" or a dilly-dilly, for each time an announcer thinks he or she can project the success of a college player in one of those other professional leagues...

    Gopher Fan Bill of Rights

    Perhaps this is a rehashing of old concerns and gripes, but after the first game this year, it seems like same ol, same ol, without any attempt to fix some game experience issues - some new ones showed up as pointed out by others. While some issues are minor, others are bigger and really...

    Scratching My Head

    Why spend a considerable amount of time developing a "long bench" just to slow the game down in the second half in a "prevent offense" with an eight point lead?

    Noise Level

    What was the sound level down near the field? Up in Section 209 I could hear the student sections clearly, but didn't get a sense that we generated a lot of noise during some crucial 3rd down plays. Wondering whether the Bank holds any noise.
