    Memory lane - attending a game at the shoe

    Was there in 2000 & 2002. 2000 will always be one of the most memorable Gopher games I've been to. Ron Johnson was a man amongst boys. Their fans were generally pretty nice that day despite the loss. A few drunk students, but then they'd have someone in their group apologize for them. I...

    Recent history vs Ohio State

    Maybe we can say we have a neck injury & we split the victory? We've played a little with them in 14, 15, 18, 21. Maybe there really was no scare those years, but by no means were they embarrassments. Ya never know!!!

    The most Gopher Friendly Sandwich Shop I've Ever Been to

    Well, Goldy used to beat up on The Giant Sub during the Subway Shootout during hockey intermissions back in the late 90s/early 00s......perhaps that soured Subway's level of friendliness?

    Good game Gophers

    2019 needed a 4th down pinpoint throw & catch against Fresno to send it to OT (along with the fact that if we have any other S than Antoine Winfield, Gophers probably lose game in OT) and a last second win which included a long 3rd & 4th down conversion on last drive to beat Georgia Southern...

    Koi Perich ...

    When I was younger, I had a book called "Good Days, Bad Days." It was stories of about 10 or 12 different NFL players: one chapter would be about one of their best days in the NFL & the next would be about one of their worst days. Perich's night on Saturday reminded me of that book. It was a...

    Regarding hockey, the biggest thing I note from 30-35 years ago is back then, you'd have practices & maybe some scrimmages in November and then the first big tournament was Thanksgiving weekend. The season really didn't ramp up until that weekend. Now, there's usually big tournaments Halloween...

    EP up 21-19 over Edina at halftime. Seems whoever avoids the mistakes and/or has the ball last will win. EP imposing their will & Mason West doing his thing with 2 TD’s.

    Shama: Gophers Football Season Ticket Sales Down Slightly from 2024; third consecutive year of decline in public season tickets

    Easier than ever to go online & get tickets on secondary market. Good tickets at good prices for the lower games. Not the greatest home slate; Nebraska & Wisconsin the only big name games. Us fans enjoy all Big Ten games, but Michigan State really has never moved the needle here, football...

    2025 Bowl Projection Tracker

    Seems like most of the bowl prognostications revolve around whether the Big Ten will get 3 or 4 teams in the playoff. If 4, then Nashville is very much in play. If only 3, most are saying Phoenix. So if not us being that 4th, I suppose go Illini?

    We'll find out a bunch in the next few weeks: -Don't know if #1, but Maple Grove probably deserves the ranking; they've had the most difficult 2 tests thus far that they have passed. -Minnetonka has done what they're supposed to do; still waiting for first test -Shakopee has done what they've...

    It was an interesting game. EP was doing their thing the first 18-20 minutes, 4-5 yards a play all the way down the field. MG offense seemed to get going there at the end of the 1st half to in 7-7 at halftime. 3rd quarter was all MG. Pretty sure EP didn't have a 1st down in the 3rd quarter &...

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

    If we've learned anything about Fleck, it's to not believe anything in terms of injuries. I would not be surprised if Taylor does NOT play on Saturday, considering there is a bye week after this game before getting in to Big Ten play.
