    OT Games

    I was at that game and Harris was running right toward me as I was waving him forward. I remember a non-athletic kicker or holder chasing him awkwardly with flailing arms...and then the ball came out. They made Curtis Painter look like Drew Brees that night, but then that team made every...

    OT Games

    Yes, the 2005 Purdue game was the one where Cupito threw a pick 6 to put the Gophers down 28-20 in the 4th quarter. He led them back to score and got the 2-point conversion on an option play, which was breath-taking because it did not exactly fit his skill set. Purdue went up in OT with a...

    OT Games

    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

    I'm sick and tired of losing to Purdue!

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

    What grade would you give Gophers coaches in loss at OSU?

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

    Post Game Thread: Buckeyes Comeback on Gophers Keeps Undefeated Season Alive

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

    Predict the Score Thread: Rutgers at Minnesota

    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.

    It looks like Brosmer is coming in for the Vikings!

    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.

    Last series with Cal.

    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...

    Berkeley or Bust: who’s going?

    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...

    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?
