    The deal is near finalized for #UCLA football to play its home games in SoFi Stadium.

    Oct 1, 1977 I was at Memorial Stadium to see the Gophers defeat Warren Moon and the eventual Rose Bowl Champion Huskies. Place was half full. Atmosphere that day in Dinkytown...meh.

    The deal is near finalized for #UCLA football to play its home games in SoFi Stadium.

    And I attended a couple of games Memorial Stadium in which the atmosphere sucked, especially on a rainy dreary day. More than half the seats were in the end zone. Just look at the attendance numbers from 1971 - 1981. Your dad should have been more downtrodden about lack of talent under Smokey...

    The deal is near finalized for #UCLA football to play its home games in SoFi Stadium.

    The first few games in 1982 at the HHH Dome were anything but stale. They drew over 50,000 for both Ohio U and Washington St sandwiched around a win at Purdue. The atmosphere was electric for the first Big 10 game at the Dome, 63,000 strong against Illinois for a night game. They flopped and...

    Two Schools Are Reportedly Considering Leaving The Big Ten

    It's actually possible to have 3 unbeaten teams as #Some Guy has been quick to point out, so even 9-0 might not cut it for the Gophers to get to Indy.

    Two Schools Are Reportedly Considering Leaving The Big Ten

    How about for starters the Gophers are getting ready to play in Eugene, OR on a Friday night instead of Champaign, IL on a Saturday. There are now.17 teams Minnesota needs to be better than instead of 9 to win the Big 10. All driven by TV bucks.

    Two Schools Are Reportedly Considering Leaving The Big Ten

    1. Because many are still running a deficit which will increase with revenue sharing to players. 2. Way too complicated for the SEC to pull that off. They have their own issues. 3. Just like Fans were canvased on adding Nebraska, Maryland, Rutgers & the PAC 4 a well as ditching Divisions?!?

    All Things Movie/Documentary Reviews/Recommendations Thread

    Usually when critics overwhelming give a film glowing reviews while the fans shun it, I side with Team Critics. Die My Love gets 74% on Rotten Tomatoes, while ticket buyers only 46%. I am siding with the public on this one. Just way too bleak. While I sympathize with someone going through the...

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

    Twins Alert on Grid today. New Players are Brye & Arozarena. Probably should have thought harder on the LF / 1 team category. I am surprised K Brett got a full 1%. That's rare.
