    Any word on delaying kickoff due to weather?

    Smart call. Allow people deal with and get through the bad weather to get to the game and then have a decent amount of time to get into the stadium for the game.

    Stormy Rowing Ahead?

    GopherWeatherGuy called it a bit ago as it looks like these storms are moving faster than expected. I'm attaching a T-Storm warning I just got indicating this line of storms has already reached the western fringes of the metro and is already over Waconia just west of Minnetonka.

    Any word on delaying kickoff due to weather?

    I hope the U of M is smart about it and makes the announcement by around 4 PM as a lot of people will be trying to make a final decision as to where they might want to head to or wait it out until they hear more.

    Stormy Rowing Ahead?

    Thanks for confirming, that's what I was thinking when I looked at this radar shot as it appeared based on movement it would be here well before 7:00 pm. It looks like it's getting a little spicy out to the west as the T-storm Warnings start to fill in proceeding the storms as they angle to the NE.

    Stormy Rowing Ahead?

    I thought I would throw the lightning policy out there one more time. It could easily stop raining but this policy is what will slow us up. They're not going to let people back into the stands until this 30 min is up and then I imagine they will give everyone another 20-30 min to get seated...

    Week 1 Other Games Thread

    Well, I guess it's another year of the networks being determined to hype NEB. A program that hasn't made a bowl game in 8 yrs and is playing powerhouse UTEP is been given the prime 2:30 pm slot on FOX as a national game on Sat. I have nothing against the kid as he definitely has talent, but I...

    Stormy Rowing Ahead?

    Was just outside and heard some thunder and checked my phone. Sure enough there is a small T-Storm about 8-10 mi west of me in the W Metro. So, I guess some scattered rumblers as well.

    Gophers Class of 2028

    They keep packin them in at the main campus. This year’s roughly 7,300 first-year students and 1,700 transfer students — is the largest and most diverse incoming class in campus history. I hope PJ took the opportunity to do a little student section recruiting.

    Stormy Rowing Ahead?

    Deion has been pretty irritated as of late with the mere suggestion that NDSU might be able to upset them. I'm hoping that the game is close just to see his demeanor on the sideline.

    Uniforms for tomorrow!

    Tightening up on the video budget. Revenue sharing is just around the corner.

    Stormy Rowing Ahead?

    I agree, especially with the national Fox crew here. I imagine most of the crew with likely have Saturday game responsibilities as well. So, even with barely any sleep, they will want them out of here on Friday morning flights.

    Uniforms for opening night on National TV?

    This list is even more simplified because there is no longer a chrome helmet or Anthracite uniform option.

    Uniforms for opening night on National TV?

    I went back and looked at the Uniform press release and thought I would just repost it as we start the year. I will let everyone interpret it, but based on this I think the options are cut way down, I think the Chrome helmets are gone, and based on the phrasing in the release the all-white is...

    Uniforms for opening night on National TV?

    I'd be fine with either of these combinations: I do lean towards the Maroon helmet, so might give the standing player the edge. Considering the Gold out I wouldn't go full Maroon.

    Stormy Rowing Ahead?

    That's not great. Based on your comments, I assume that although not severe these storms will likely roll through like a wave similar to the last 24 hours and not be the scattered storms variety.

    Stormy Rowing Ahead?

    Let's hope it's not a copy of the way things worked out this evening. If so, we could have quite a late start. A reminder: The current NCAA policy requires that play be suspended if there is lightning within 8 miles of the stadium. It requires a 30 minute delay, but this may vary because the...

    Golf Digest: Which college football head coach is the best golfer? This poll has the answer (9. PJ Fleck, Minnesota, 10.8 handicap)

    You know these guys are competitive and talk about their handicap. One reason I say that is that during SEC media days they had this thing where they were asking the coach they were interviewing if they had a question to ask for the next coach coming up. In this case, Mark Stoops (Kent @ 17) was...

    Meet the new Freshman - Tori & McKenna

    I guess I completely disagree. What the NCAA chose to do is fight the inevitable. They chose to fight this tooth and nail in the courts and like everyone had been saying would happen they lost. At that point, they were then left completely flat-footed and had no plan whatsoever. So, courts force...
