No, that was 2001. In this game Purdue was backed up at their 3-yard line with about 5 seconds left and somehow had time to complete a LONG pass to set up a tying field goal.

"mailed it in" suggests they were not trying. Did not seem that way to me

Yup.

But the Gophers recovered and won going away.

I loved that game! Scott Eckers, Omar Douglas, Mike Alstott. Just crazy.

Minnesota 38 Purdue 34

I think the phrase first got traction when it was boomed out by Peter Finch in a film called "Network".

Maybe OSU made an adjustment. We are not great at that even when the talent gap is manageable.

Yup. Purdue put up 27 on Illinois today and 30 on Notre Dame. They don't defend but are capable of beating us.

If Rutgers can put up 28 on Iowa I think they can beat us, 27-24. So Hope I am wrong because of the gravity of the game.

Though Bronko Nagurski was not a quarterback, he did throw 77 NFL passes, completing 32 for 474 yards and 7 touchdowns. At the time there was some grumbling that it somehow "wasn't fair" that someone who was not the quarterback would throw the occasional pass.

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.
