    Insight Bowl -- Gophers vs. Iowa State

    Probably will be one of the most boring bowl games ever played, but the more important news: the Tempe Block Party has the Doobie Brothers playing this New Year's Eve. What a downgrade from last year's epic Styx show. Bummer.

    Oklahoma to Sun Bowl = Texas Tech to Alamo

    Oklahoma will play Stanford in the Sun Bowl, so Texas Tech is the opponent if we land in San Antonio: http://www.tulsaworld.com/sportsextra/OU/article.aspx?subjectid=92&articleid=20091206_92_0_Oklaho740322&allcom=1

    Iowa State to Insight Bowl

    Straight from a Cyclone player's Facebook page. Iowa and Iowa State in Phoenix at the same time? Reason enough not to attend if that's where we end up. :D

    Looks like Iowa > Penn State

    Reports saying Iowa got the Fiesta Bowl nod over JoePa. The just choice, but still a tad surprising. http://blog.pennlive.com/davidjones/2009/12/psu_sources_indicate_its_capon.html

    10-year anniversary of a classic

    No, nothing involving chair legs through eye sockets (give it a few years). On the eve of Texas-Nebraska in the Big XII Championship, it is only fitting that it also marks the 10-year anniversary of my favorite post ever on a football message board: Texas Football Fan's Diary A chronology of...

    Oregon State's Rose Bowl drought reaches 45 years

    Beavers let a great chance to end the Pac-10's 2nd longest Rose Bowl drought slip away last night. Very poor tackling in the second half prevented their offense from getting the opportunity to pull the upset late. Oregon State's last trip to the Rose Bowl was 1964, just three years after ours...

    Thanks for the laughs...

    Alamo Bowl exec says U still in mix The Alamo Bowl folks trying to get one last jab at the Gophers before the Big Ten ditches them for the Gator Bowl...sorry, not buying it. :cool02:

    Out of words to describe...

    ...how truly awful our offense is. The worst part is you can't point your finger at any one area. Actually, I guess I can come up with another description: bleak.

    Favorite play from Saturday...

    OK, so there were more than a few "big plays" in that game. And Bennett's ridiculous TD catch won't soon be forgotten, but there was one play that stood out to me above all, on MSU's last drive. 2nd and 15 (maybe not the exact down and distance, as I was in somewhat of a daze by that point) near...

    I ask for tricks...

    ...and the Gophers come up with the old "deflection off the tight end's corpse" play for the winning touchdown. Kudos, Mr. Fisch. :clap:

    Tricks AND Treats

    No better time than Halloween to open up the playbook for a trick play or three. What do we have to lose? The offense has sputtered all year, and option 1A-F is out for the duration. I have confidence in this coaching staff, but I want to see some creativity tonight. This game is our season -...

    Thank you, Eric Decker

    Since I won't be able to attend Senior Day, I'll throw it out there now. A great representative of the Gophers, the University and the state. Without a doubt one of my all-time favorites. There's no replacing a guy like that. A real shame that injuries sapped major parts of his final two...

    Last time we stunk it up at PSU....

    ....we went into the Big House the next week and beat Michigan. Not a prediction, I'm just sayin'.

    It's raining in Happy Valley...

    Quite the adventure gettting into town, with heavy snow in the mountains, but changing over to rain once in State College. Pretty miserable, but as the temps drop 2-3 degrees, it will change over to snow during the game, I'd imagine. Doubt there will be any accumulation. Sounds like a lot of...

    4-6 more inches of snow expected...

    Mostly this is just an excuse to link to this video, but it's looking like I'll get to enjoy my first-ever snow game: Crazy weatherman

    Snow forecasted for Saturday

    They're saying little to no accumulation, but it'd still be a blast to watch... State College forecast

    48 hours, 17 minutes until kickoff...

    ...and Wisconsin still sucks. Time to get back on message, Schnoodler.
