I always get a kick out of videos like this. Takes me back to being a kid when the Metrodome was featured as the big savior of Gopher Football. It is also interesting how the fans really didn't wear "team gear" to games in big numbers until as recently as 25 years ago.

2019 was a fun ride. But given all the early season drama, it very easily could have been a 7-5 or 8-4 type year. CrAB doesn't make that 4th down catch against Fresno State? Douglas doesn't show up HUGE deep in Gopher territory as the game clock was expiring against Southern Georgia? Even a...

Except it it sope on a roap

People always say it is a "meaningless poll" and although it should be, it is NOT. The poll dictates which games are highlighted for ESPN recaps, which programs get visibility, and most importantly it sets the stage for more polls down the line and eventually the committee playoff voting. Sure...

I have a LOT of experience bringing kids to Gopher games. But that experience begins when they are about 4-5 so my advice isn't applicable to a 1 year old. For me, I'd try to avoid bringing a kid that young but if it was unavoidable, I'd stay away from seats by the scoreboard and try to get...

Yes. They list him as a cut.

The Strib now projects Brosmer on to their assumed 53 man roster as the third QB

She is still going strong with her "bottom line" even 11 years after this was made:

Will this balance the video I am seeing EVERYWHERE from Iowa fans ecstatic their new QB was able to complete a sideline pass in practice?

Morton's very own. Renville County's finest.

I could live with this. I do understand the argument about fans seeing over tubas, but every other D1 stadium seems to deal with it okay. I just cringe every time I look over there and see 1/3 of the band separated from the rest due to the undersized pit. I sit pretty close to the band so I...

The University of Minnesota marching band deserves better than the sunken, sound-challenged current band pit in Huntington Bank Stadium. I know on paper it seemed like a great idea. A dedicated spot for the band that created room for fans seated behind the band to still easily see the field...

21! Exactly 3 weeks from today... the fur flies! If there was one play that lifted me off my seat more than any other last season, it was the 21 yard touchdown off a flea flicker reverse from Brosmer to Geers. The Gophers served notice that they came to play that day against highly ranked...

and not just football. In fairness, it could be a bit tied to the team's success and a poor record results in smaller crowds but any contending team in a spectator sport could count on large crowds and big student sections. I've been to standing room only D3 hockey games, 3.5K fans crammed...

I get what you are saying with your first paragraph but then just don't bother baiting and switching the "good stuff" for the rest of us, instead of reminding us every year that we don't matter as much as others. I'd be all over the tshirt thing that wouldn't run out, if it was offered. Wish...

lots and lots of liberal arts students at the d3 school I went to cared about d3 football. Lots went to games, even some road games.

They won't. And it is just sooooo satisfying to know that they are completely wrong any way you slice it.

In my opinion, the best perk situation within my history as a season ticket holder was getting a little coupon within my ticket packet to redeem at the first game for a free long sleeve tshirt. I liked that. It wasn't a big deal but I enjoyed getting that tshirt every year. The current system...

22! The 2011 22-21 win over Iowa was memorable. For me, I was not yet tailgating so my wife was going to about half the games in those days and I ended up with three extra tickets that day. Long story short, but I ended up bringing 3 German exchange students to their first college football game...
