    Which road game are you going to?

    OK, I live out of state so the Buffalo game is "away" for me. I just learned that I will be attending. The wife noted that we have a buy one get one ticket on Delta. It has to used by Aug 31, so our choices were limited. After thinking about it, I believe that her logic is two-fold, and it's not...

    2027 QB Furian Inferrera has Flipped his Commitment from Boston College to Minnesota!

    It looks like their legendary coach, Bruce Rollinson, retired a couple of years ago. He was right out of Central Casting, big mustache and gravelly voice. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Rollinson

    Paul Finebaum: What's a loss from your favorite sports team you still can't get over?

    I wrote a supportive letter, although I was pissed about the game. When Wacker's nephew, Tim Schade, called an audible to a pass (incomplete) that stopped the clock and pretty much provided Illinois with the chance to win. His letter was friendly and apprecialive.

    Paul Finebaum: What's a loss from your favorite sports team you still can't get over?

    I was a grad student in Columbia, SC and watched the game in a bar. I was absolutely sick after the game. I wrote Wacker a letter and he wrote one back!

    Paul Finebaum: What's a loss from your favorite sports team you still can't get over?

    Why the hell they called that pick-6 bootleg pass pass I will never know. Mason found ways to lose painfully.

    Paul Finebaum: What's a loss from your favorite sports team you still can't get over?

    Too many men on the field. I was at this game. Perhaps the stupidest play calling ever. At one point we passed three times in a row, two incompletes and one complete but Decker was near the sideline and his momentum easily took him OB. Three key/free TO's for TTU. God I was pissed.

    Conference Realignment Updates

    Some of the conference switching has trickled down to DIII. I see that Luther College will be joining the Midwest Conference in the fall of 2026. Perhaps the new conference will conducive to a bit more winning for the Norse. Things have really been lean for a while.

    Which road game are you going to?

    My retired, very bored, and once a year Gopher game attending buddy informs me that we have an airbnb booked that is located 1.6 miles from the Cal stadium entrance. I haven't asked, but I'll bet he would know the BART fare from the Oakland and SF airports to the closest Berkeley stop. Don't get...

    2025 college football coach rankings: Deion Sanders, Bill Belichick headline Power Four coaches ranked 68-26, Fleck #27

    I have been a Gopher fan since 1972. We have been soundly defeated by Ohio St and Michigan many times since. But in the close games that we have played vs. those two we won't get any breaks. My feeling is that if we beat them by one point we have to outplay them by about seven. Those two will...

    Goldy On Jeopardy!

    I was screaming at the TV, "Minnesota!" Does anyone else think that Ken Jennings is better than Alex was? Mr Trebek had a way of making people feel dumb IMHO.

    Rickey Henderson dead at age 65

    This indicates that his stance, a deep crouch, was done to reduce the size of his strike zone, and still maintain power. Kurkjian said that his strike zone was smaller than Hitler's heart. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rickey_Henderson
