    AT WHAT POINT DO YOU SAY ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

    You do what you need to do, but this is a strange time to move on. In the last 60 years we are in the best stretch of football we have had. I know it doesn't say a lot, but it is what it is.

    Fleck and KOC

    Minnesota is a unique place - I feel like there are Twins fans, Gophers fans, Timberwolves fans, Wild fans... but there are more diehard Viking fans than the rest of the fans combined. I am probably a prime example - I absolutely love the Gophers, but on Sundays I bleed purple. You either...

    Say something nice about Iowa, 2025 edition

    They have a lot of Casey's Gas Stations and they make a nice pizza. Went to an Iowa game a few years ago with my dad. Driving home listening to the Iowa post game show I felt like it was the mid 80s and I was a kid riding with my dad again. Everything seemed 1980s... right down to the scenery...

    Friday Night Lights

    I can respect your opinions. I don't necessarily love the afternoon games because they take up the entire day, but to each their own. Thanks for sharing.

    Friday Night Lights

    I would agree, the atmosphere is no different than any other night game, but by committing to Friday you are guaranteed to have the night game. Otherwise we aren't guaranteed to get a night game. I am genuinely curious and not judging or looking to argue, but why do you not like the Friday...

    Friday Night Lights

    The counter argument, and I think anyone that attends games would agree, our fans have been 100% different since 2019. Comparing any game in 2018 isn't fair. I'd even argue those were still the days where have the crowd was red when we played Wisconsin or black when we played Iowa. That's not...

    High Energy games at the Bank

    I'll add the Michigan State/Halloween game. I don't remember the year, had to be early on, I was a lot younger and had a heckuva buzz going into the game.

    Wolverine Wire Power Rankings

    I agree - there was nothing ugly about the win. In a weird way I can get on baord with the we did eke out a convincing win part. Mainly because the game, score-wise, was never out of control, until the end and all of a sudden we were up by a couple of touchdowns and Nebraska couldn't do...

    2025 Minnesota High School Football Thread

    I knew some people from the area and from what I understand was the Randolph was 9-Man in the late 80s/early 90s but then made the decision to opt up to 1A until around 2010ish. In those 20 years fans didn't see many wins. They played 9-Man from 2010ish-2020ish and had some good-not-great, but...

    Friday Night Lights

    I am going to state it again, the U should do whatever they can to host a night game on the Friday of MEA week. I saw we had a few in-state visitors. Probably easier to get to the game tonight than a Saturday day game for a lot of the local recruits. Perfect weather, great atmosphere, good...

    Mason says it's "mind boggling" why Eslinger, Spaeth and TC don't have their jerseys retired at The U

    1) I agree with Mason on this. In my opinion the U does not do a very good job of recognizing legends from the modern era. 2) Does anyone know how TC is doing? He was very active (and a little off the wall) on social media a few years ago and then radio silence.

    A Record that may stand forever

    I am not a fan of Ferentz... the longer he has coached, the more I have grow in my dislike of him... but when you word it this way, it is a pretty impressive career Kirk has put togther. The only way to have the most losses in Big Ten history is to have a hell-of-a-lot of wins.

    What of the conference championship games ... were a playoff game?

    I actually like the 24 team format and more importantly I like making the conference championship game meaningful. Having Big Ten #7 play Big Ten #8 would be locally exciting as it would give us a shot to be in the playoffs. Having a first round bye and seedings would keep the regular season...

    Koi Perich jersey on fanatics

    I came across this on twitter - Koi's mom takes orders for jerseys on facebook. I am not sure if the store is open 24/7/365 or if there is certain ordering periods. I was skeptical that I was getting scammed and it really wasn't Koi's mom because you order on a Google form and pay via venmo, but...

    Perich = ESPN Preseason All-American

    Haha - at one point I think we all thought he was going to "bring Gopher Nation to a Pasadena!"

    Perich = ESPN Preseason All-American

    Koi Perich may go down as one of my favorite Gopher's of all-time. If he lives up to the expectations and hype that has been generated after a phenomenal first season he will, without a doubt, be my favorite Gopher ever.
