    The Gophers aren't the first team to blow out an FCS team, nor will they be the last.

    It also eliminates the additional chance for a victory to enhance the resume.

    There have been NM (no messages) on the entire Gopherhole Basketball board for over 48 hours, until now. The silence is broken.

    The Gophers aren't the first team to blow out an FCS team, nor will they be the last.

    Ok, given that Gopherhole is my sole reference point for "SM" then my sense of what was being discussed regarding the Northwestern St-Minnesota contest was far different than yours. Moral of the story...stick to Gopherhole only to reduce the nonsense. :cool:

    Non-Conference Scheduling

    Since the Trice tragedies in the 1920s, they did play 3 regular season games from 1989-1997. So, it has been put aside multiple times since it occurred. Playing again would provide a good opportunity to shed light on the incident, as it did in 1989. Back then as a student, I read an article...

    Fleck on Taylor injury: "It doesn't seem too bad, which is really good. So, we got really good, positive diagnosis on that.”

    Cal is an important contest. However, relatively speaking, it's the least important game remaining on the regular season schedule.

    The Gophers aren't the first team to blow out an FCS team, nor will they be the last.

    Any remotely knowledgeable college football fan (which I feel the overwhelming posters in the Gopherhole forum fall under that category) are aware that such Contract/Paycheck games are common. Your quote referred to "SM posts", which I thought was referring this forum as well. In hindsight, I...

    All Things Immaculate Grid-related (MLB, NBA, NFL)

    A late Twins Alert on the Grid. New Players used today are Punto & Cabrera. Clyde Milan I have used previously as a Senator-Twin. Note to Rarity Hunters, Milan is pretty versatile in a lot of both Season & Career offensive categories. 40.1 WAR. 1 franchise player as well.

    Non-Conference Scheduling

    If the money is right, "never" could be "occasionally", like once or twice a decade. The Cyclones went Dublin this year. I presume the dough made it worth their while. Iowa State has played both the Gophers and Hawkeyes as recently as 1997. https://cyclones.com/sports/football/schedule/1997...

    The ordeal of no divisions

    Perhaps after the Big 10 & SEC merge to form a Super Duper Conference, divisions will return.

    Non-Conference Scheduling

    I think it's worth trying, at least once. Odds are slim it turns out to be like the annual regular season Oklahoma-Texas at the Cotten Bowl or Georgia-Florida at the Gator Bowl fiestas but you never know. Colorado-Colorado State at Mile High and Kansas-Missouri at Arrowhead occasionally in the...

    Non-Conference Scheduling

    Is it really that much of risk currently to schedule a better FCS team with the talent gap widening more than ever? With P4 NIL, revenue sharing & Portal (which includes raiding FCS talent) it's a lot harder for such an upset. Per Wiki FBS went 115-6 in 2024 against FCS teams. One of those was...

    There's zero worries as well once saved into either Google or Apple Wallet. Just make sure the phone has juice.

    The Gophers aren't the first team to blow out an FCS team, nor will they be the last.

    While assisting in the minimum quota for Bowl eligibility, scheduling an FCS team does Jack Squat for FBS Playoff consideration.

    Non-Conference Scheduling

    To clarify, I was referring to scheduling a different FCS team instead of Northwestern State. Having any of the 4 Dakota schools or Northern Iowa would increase ticket sales and/or general interest in the contest.

    Non-Conference Scheduling

    Devil's Advocate, not idiotic if you want to sell more tickets or provide value to those that already have purchased season tickets and provided mandatory scholarship "donations".

    Non-Conference Scheduling

    Points 3 & 4 could happen no matter the opponent, especially against one of G5 caliber. Points 1 & 2 shouldn't have to cost Season Ticket holders 1/7th of their price of attendance, scholarship donations, parking etc.

    Non-Conference Scheduling

    I get why the Gophers don't play Iowa St regularly, largely due to their regularly scheduled rivalry game with Iowa. They should at least play at each other's stadium once per decade. That would just make too much sense. Even playing at the Zygi Dome once every 4-5 years and split the gate...
