    Could next weeks Iowa game be the coldest game in recent memory?

    I went to the 2018 NW game too and was cold on the M side, 15 yard line, lower, despite layers of everything. My tickets this year are 240 and last week's game vs NW wasn't too bad with boots, two wool socks, thermal, lined pants, snow pants, base layer up top, wool sweater, fleece, and...

    I've seen all four play. I don't think MG's schedule was up to the other three. Having said that, this is an indoor game. Whose OL shows up? Whose Defense shows up? I think the various coaches' game plays for an indoor game and the execution of the game plan against a specific opponent will be...

    I agree that the 6AAAAAA Semis will see physical play. The teams left all run the ball effectively. I don't know if I agree that LS has the best passing game; it was nonexistent in the LS/EP game earlier in the season, though later in the season looked better with Hansen as the go-to guy. As an...

    Great post FUBAR. I agree with you on the EP/Rosemount game. I think it's going to come down to the EP Center Sather and his two friends to his left and to his right vs a swarming Rosemount D. The game is indoors so I wouldn't put it past Coach Grant to try some funny stuff with Fazzi, but I...

    6AAAAAA semis are set. EP/Rosemount and Lakeville South/Maple Grove. I think the Final will be EP/Lakeville South. For those GopherHolers who follow and are interested in high school football, your thoughts?

    I went to the EP/Shakopee game tonight. Base layer, wool sweater, fleece and a shell with an internal fleece layer and it was enough to withstand the 30+mph gusts.......barely. EP won the rematch with their grind-it-out style and terrific defense. The EP/Rosemount game next week, indoors, should...

    Athan will be the starter this Saturday per TheGopherGuys on Twitter

    The eight-yard run at the start of the third quarter when he froze the Husker's DE and the 55 yd toss against the wind did it for me. Regarding the pass, I was in Section 20, Row 95 and there was quite a breeze at the time.Trickett's FG's were also impressive for the same reason.

    EP road graders should do well this evening against Shakopee in the "calm" weather forecast. I agree with MNVCGUY that kickoffs and punts will be an adventure, as well as any pass more than 10 yards.

    Interesting dialogue about bowls. Just finish 9-3 and then let the AD's negotiate within BIG and respective bowl committees.

    Yeh; but after 50+ years building wealth, it's going fast in this environment! Having said that, it's worth $13 to see a bunch of good high school football players go at it. It looks like this Thursday is going to be one hell of a night for football. It reminds me of several years ago when EP...

    Copy. What grates me about the whole thing is paying $13 for an online ticket. No benefits being a "young" Senior.

    I watched both games. He was devastating. He was impossible to stop without gaining positive yards. One tough customer. It's too bad he encountered issues after high school.

    I have to defend myself to fellow GopherHolers. I liked FUBAR's analysis which is why I referenced his really good post. I've been going to EP's games since 1996, nearly 250 games..I'm 76 years young...so yes I'm an EP fan. Perhaps I could have used a better word than revenge but the point of my...

    Tanner Morgan injury watch thread

    I went to the game. I concur with prior posts describing pre-halftime. On the last hit before the half, he appeared wobbly and a lineman guided him to get to the sideline. I did not see him on the sidelines during the second half so either he stayed in the locker room the entire second half or...

    Attention GopherHolers, specifically FUBAR. EP revenge tour starts this week against Shakopee, who beat them handily during the regular season, unusual for a Grant team. Next up on the revenge tour is Rosemount, who beat them early on at Rosemount using a strong field position g ame and the...

    Contrary to the impressions left by the academic scandal in certain sports several years ago UNC-Chapel Hill is academically rigorous. A very high % of students accepted are in the top 5% of their graduating high school class, with many Valedictorians. Most accepted students have 10+ AP classes...

    Most CH hotels/motels downtown within walking distance of stadium show "Sold Out" for Friday and Saturday. Gopherholers might want to try Cary/Raleigh, Durham, Pittsboro or Burlington properties, but plan for difficult transit to CH and parking.
