I was at the 2006 Cal game. On our first possession, the Gophers got inside the Cal 5-yard line when Matt Spaeth got loose on a cross field pass from Cupito and ran about 40 yards. In the Gopher section, a cry of "You can't stop us" got started after Daniels bulled into the end zone on third...

Driving up from San Diego then renting bikes to go over The Bridge and through Sausalito to Tiburon. After the game, hiking and camping at Big Sur. We love San Francisco and have heard much about the expansion of the homeless population. Guess we will see for ourselves if the Union Square/Market...

How about the reverse of our 2006 visit to Cal? Gophers 42 Bears 17

I never heard one of the announcers mention his dad. I was sure they would not miss that link or did i just not hear them?

No.

I was happy to see Oregon State get thumped again by a non-powerhouse. The way Cal handled the Beavers made me think that Cal might be really good. I also felt better when Cal was not great in Game #2.

Well, one of the announcers doing the Buffalo game stated that Minnesota's lack of resources will not drive him to the portal. I was dismayed that personal finances had to be part of the broadcast. Boundaries, please.

I thought the Gophers opened with a field goal. Thank you for correcting me!

The Gophers scored first and won Time of Possession!

There is a back-story to Reid's big day vs. the Badgers. The previous game, at Purdue, had a bitter, Gopheresque ending. Down 13-11 late in the game, Aaron Brown got loose with a Bob Sadek pass and was seemingly headed for a winning touchdown. However, he pulled up lame and was caught from...

I was impressed by our last possession. The line finally imposed its will on a tired and perhaps discouraged run defense. I would have hated to see a punt followed by a "consolation touchdown".

I admire your confidence! I come from a long line of dark-side Scandinavians with 65+ years of Gopher let-downs to fortify their influence.

Your confidence is admirable. Let's hope these Gophers you more reasons to feel that way.

Very surprised and pleased that PJ did not baby him and restrict him to 20-25 passes. Against teams from lesser conferences, he usually leans heavily on the run game and we read lots of complaints about "RUTM". His confidence in the kid was encouraging.

Up just 16-10 early in the 4th quarter, this game looked like it could easily be another one of losses where the Gophers dominate statistically but find a way to lose. Maybe I am a lot older than you and have seen more haunting losses.

We lose Middlebrooks in mid-game and Randle-El can't miss.

I have replayed that last 2 minutes many times. First of all, I wanted Russell in the game to get those tough yards and not Maroney. With 4th and one, it was clear to me that Mason had to go for it. The defense was gassed and at least a tying field goal by the Badgers seemed imminent. Tough spot...

Tremendous athlete. Bleed and I watched him in person as a senior in San Diego and he looked like a can't miss prospect. Turns out he was a much better athlete than a basketball player. He was also a stud running back in high school. I think his true calling would have been as a cornerback.

I think I read somewhere that the Wisconsin people finally found The Slab of Bacon buried in some storeroom in Camp Randall. Does anyone have the details? And then what did they do with it?

Or the old Irish ballad called "Good-Bye, Mrs. Durkin". The Pogues version is quite good.
