    True, but using our own RTB vernacular, they are rowing a steady course and are willing to throw excess ballast overboard if needed (see you later Brian). That said, the hand on the tiller is getting up there so interesting to see if a course correction is in the future.

    Ducks Game Weather

    Looks like conditions in I-O-W-A City may have been a not-so-dry-run for the Gophers-Ducks contest this coming Friday night: Probably more drizzle than buckets in the mid-40s and light winds. Definitely conditions Ducks No. 6 could thrive in. The moon will be waning crescent at 28.6%...

    Yep, noticed that too. To Kill A Mockingbird must have been making a comeback 18-24 years ago in Aussie Land...assuming both are from Down Under...

    Hawks made them earn it. Hopefully the Ducks are a little off after this grinder coming into us. By the way, Oregon has proven they can play in the B1G+ in Big Ten conditions. I've decided they are okay. Ski U Mah.

    Very I-O-W-A like.

    Very I-O-W-A like. We'll see if they can do it. Don't know if they ever storm the field at Kinnick. This might be a stormable worthy event if they pull it off.

    Very much an I-O-W-A game. Ducks get the ball first in the 2nd half. Unlike against OH-IO-State where I had some delusions of the Gophers being competitive, sure anything is possible (which is why the games are played) but the Ducks will be formidable at Autzen. Back to this game, Hawks are...

    Duck No. 6 will be trouble for us Friday night.

    Bye Week Lookahead

    To be clear not a Hawk lover but have decided not to like the Ducks for this one. Obviously looking forward to the game though in a bye week for us.

    Couldn't resist... Nice hype by CBS.

    Bye Week Lookahead

    Weather Underground is sticking with when the cold rain comes to Kinnick...starting 1-2 PM at a decent clip (1/3 inch basically over the game)...at 40 degrees with a 15 mph wind from the west. Bring your wellies and handwarmers Duckies and Herkies 'cuz going to be unpleasant. It will be...

    Great Hammy. You went where I was not willing to go...:p

    Bye Week Lookahead

    Waning gibbous on Saturday (full Beaver moon was last night) and rising around 7:30 PM, so after the game. Guessing since beavers are aquatic animals this probably favors ducks more than hawks... P.S. There is a Kurt Vonnegut reference here that I did not touch.

    Bye Week Lookahead

    This thread can be moved to the Week 11 Other Games thread when it comes up but took a peek at the forecast in I-O-W-A City for the 2:30 matchup between the Hawks and the Ducks. This will be a far cry from Eugene weather on a typical mid-fall afternoon. Hopefully these ducks will be paddling...

    Home losses by year post Bierman

    Brewster's first season was the origin of the Bitter End Club. Watching Weber in the brand new spread offense completing 3 passes for a 3 and out over and over just can't be imagined unless you watched it. Completion for 2...completion for 3...completion for 3...punt...and so on. Very...

    Home losses by year post Bierman

    I look at that list of Mason team losses and I just figuratively shake my head. A lot of those were doozies versus Purdue and Northwestern with a number of OTs. We were in the middle in those days too. Some things don't change.

    2026 season tickets

    Yep, got my notice today too. It was somewhat interesting to receive this early and how this season has gone to date. Anywho, I typically don't renew until like a week to go...and then space out the payments. I guess a true Gopher fan would pay the full amount now so the Athletic Department...
