    Gophers vs West Virginia in Guaranteed Rate Bowl

    Lots of talk about airfare. My son, friend, and I are flying to Vegas and renting a car to go to Phx for the game. It's a 4 hr drive so not short by any means but very doable if you've ever so much as road tripped to another big ten game. We struck out renting from the Vegas airport location...

    Fake slide, my opinion right now is that the rule should be changed

    My issue is this. The rule is that the ball is marked where the QB STARTED their slide. So shouldn't the ball be dead when they START their slide? That would be hard to judge except on replay but maybe it should be noted that way and be a reviewable play by the booth.

    Gophers should play in U.S Bank Stadium.

    Hard no on playing indoors at US Bank unless it's for the B1G championship or a playoff/bowl game. US Bank stadium is just...not that great IMHO. It's not a Wrigley Field/Lambeau/Mile High type where it's a cool outdoor stadium in its own right.

    Michele Tafoya advocating for the U to let fans tailgate early!

    Well you're a damn ray of sunshine. Honestly, how many hammered Gopher fans do you really run into? Not many in my opinion. People enjoy tailgating, I personally love being outside, grilling up some good food, playing cornhole, throwing a football around, and yeah, usually having a couple...

    Tailgate lots on Saturday

    I hear this is being discussed as part of the overall plan for Saturday. I have not heard a timeline on when it will be communicated.

    At what point do you consider that "the program has been turned around"?

    I think it has been turned around...now. We are a top 10 team nationally and taken seriously. The comprehensive talent level on both sides of the ball on this team is something we haven't seen in my 20 years of going to Gopher football games. Is there more to accomplish? Of course, but the...

    Morgan being evaluated for a possible concussion.

    That's a lot of confidence for being incorrect. Cupito started and played most of the game. Mortensen played the final minutes of the game and handed the ball to Russell on the run that put a game winning FG in reach. You can see 17 under center in the video below. I was at that game and...

    U running back recruit could be a Canadian diamond in the rough

    http://www.startribune.com/sports/gophers/290611151.html?page=1&c=y A few weeks after committing to the Gophers last summer, Canadian running back Jonathan Femi-Cole added a lasting memory to one of his typical eight-hour daily workouts. With a video camera rolling, he stepped inside a...

    Border Battle 2013-14

    Didn't see this elsewhere so I thought I'd note here that the Gophers clinched the Border Battle competition between athletic departments over the weekend. They hold a 460-180 lead with 240 points remaining. This gives the U 6 of the first 10 border battles. On top of that, in the years...

    How would you address the team?

    Okay, this may be an odd thread but it's probably as germane as many of the others out there. How would you address the players tomorrow at 2:15. Me? I'd go all Herb Brooks paraphrased. Great moments are born of great opportunity. And that's what you have here today. That's what you've...

    Wish they would give us a time

    I wish they'd at least give us a time that the tweet will be coming out so I can plan around that and not have to be on here constantly...not that I don't like all of your "company" but this is getting really tough.

    "Save" Gopher Football strikes again

    Illinois

    Is there any sort of official Gopher football event in Champaign for the Illinois game? I'm heading down with a group and there's no GLC tailgate so I'm looking for some other Gopher fans. Did they can the Sota Socials? I got my tickets the other day and NOTHING was included with them as far...

    After a couple of days and a lot of thought, I'm joining the GLC

    I can't say much more about Saturday than most others already have on here. Debacle, ineptitude, and pathetic are each words that seem appropriate but don't quite measure the depth of my frustration. Most troubling to me is that I am a diehard Gopher fan. I've seldom missed a game in the last...
