    November 11, 1972- Minnesota 35 Northwestern 29 Gophers roll up 478 rushing yards while completing no passes. A running back from Alabama has 188 of those yards and later during the season he will become the first Gopher to have a 1,000-yard season. Another back, from North Dakota, runs for 157...

    19 points against Rutgers???

    They ran the ball well and we did not. We do not want Brosmer to throw 45 passes in any game.

    Post Game Thread: Gophers Lose Disappointing Game at Rutgers

    You are correct. This team is just not good enough to play poorly and beat a decent opponent. I think we all knew that weeks ago but the last 4 weeks made many of us believe the Gophers could just keep walking the tightrope.

    On the topic of going for 2

    I am thinking about the Chiefs-Bucs game on Monday night when Tampa elected to kick the PAT and go to overtime. It seems to me that when you are facing a better team, especially on the road, you go for 2 in that situation. That way you only have to be better than they are once. If you go to...

    Starting to get excited. This is a cool match-up!

    Feeling "greedy"? What fan base is not greedy? Plus, looking at our history over the last half century, we have largely been subsisting on starvation rations.

    History of teams playing against their former QBs?

    When other factors seem about equal, go with the team with the better QB.

    November 4, 1967- Minnesota 10 at Iowa 0 On their way to a share of the Big 10 title, Gophers get a 17-yard scoring pass from Curtis Wilson to a tight end from North Carolina. He caught just 21 passes for Minnesota and none before his senior year, but would still go on to an NFL Hall of Fame...

    You are correct! Wasn't that something? I was 11-years old and remember studying the "Sports Peach", as I always did on Sundays, So many photos showing how a play unfolded in sequence, with arrows showing the path of the ball. Now THAT was a sports section

    10/28/61- #6 Minnesota 23 Michigan 20 Gophers rally from 20-8 4th quarter deficit. Down 2015, they are stopped at Michigan 2-yard line with 3:00 left. On the next play, however, a Michigan running back, who will go on to a 9-year career as a Chicago Bear cornerback, fumbles. It is recovered by a...

    Describe the Gophers win over Maryland in 1 sentence

    Gotta build depth but I HATE those consolation touchdowns that mask the true tenor of the game.

    Flashback! Gophers win at Penn State in 2003 despite AAK only completing 6 passes for 54 yards. MB3 carried the way with 134 rushing yards. (video)

    Mason showed some nerve that day. After going up 7-0 early, he ordered an onside kick that worked. 14-0 in 1st quarter, then the play-not-to-lose offense. Nearly backfired.
