I graded high at a B but certainly see the reason for the C+ votes without any problem. Nothing wrong with expecting better results on the field in Year 8 + 0 in the Fleck Era.

I'm a Gopher now for 28 years. This means I started with Corey Sauter and have advanced from there. Comparatively speaking for the opening game of the season over my 28 seasons, went with an A.

Lots of trips to the "Not Case IH Anymore Red Zone" that did not bear full bananas to match the Gold Out or uniforms.

As the Billds say "Winning is better." All in all not bad but Mrs. Billd has some doubts given the competition. In particular she thought it was boneheaded not to take Taylor out at the end. Probably trying to run up his yardage but he was not needed at that point. I noted that Coach has...

The GOES satellite shows clear skies on the way by gametime. Be sure to find the waxing moon...

Then came the 2018 resurgence with the very unexpected victory over Purdue at TCF. That was a fun day and hope again sprang eternal. Made it to Detroit in the end which was well deserved from how low we were. The start of Progress.

Swung by one of their boards and they believe their D can give Drake some trouble at least for the first half. We'll see... Ski U GameDay!

No speedo today...

Yes we were! Plus, we have Husker family (on Mrs. Billd's side of course) that brought a crew of 4 up to the game. Needless to say they were shellshocked after that one. Even Little Red was was diminished that fine day.

Safe to say if you experienced either of the Nebraska beat-downs in the 80s that yes, there is a special place in Football Hell reserved for Nebbie as far as Gophers are concerned. The Billds were there in the Dome for the 1989 game. That was our first and last Gopher game for about 10 years...

Boy, what a...

Yep, Bucky was disappointing however he was just the Gophers first taste of the new reality of NIL and the Portal, which in general has been more of a plus to this point than minus for Minnesota due to Coach Fleck's ability to navigate a changing landscape. Plus I don't think we'll mess with...

All I saw last year was it took into the 4th contest for the game to slow down for Max. The jump in what defenses can throw at you in speed, talent, and schemes was just more than he'd seen. On the Gophers' side it was the personnel around him, the play calling, and the intangibles that were...

No dinks in sight here...

We're breaking the 50th percentile... Mostly progress.

Things are definitely trending up slow but sure for the Gophers and GH. We have two threads with 17 pages between them on a former Gopher QB making it not only to an active NFL roster but apparently making it to the 53 man cut...and these threads are nowhere near done yet... Progress.

Should beat his NIL earnings...

I'll note that coincidentally bear sightings on Florida's beaches go up every summer while the Billds are getting our annual ocean time. And no, Mrs. Billd would not be the cause of these sightings... Cardiac exams involving electrodes always end poorly for this one. I've just learned to tell...

Did that hurt?
