We had season tickets in the bowl end of the stadium. The guy in front of us had an ever-present cigar. To this day, whenever I smell cigar smoke, my mind goes back to the great Memorial Stadium.

The “more attractive campus” piece is certainly debatable, but “a better stadium???” In what way(s) would you say that Camp Randall is better than Huntington Bank Stadium?

Speaking of dumping, I wonder what the winning team will dump on the coach.

I served with Jack Handy. I knew Jack Handy. Jack Handy was a friend of mine.

Since there are three teams ahead of them, the Gophers are tied for fourth. Still, it’s pretty impressive!

Thanks for all the work you did putting this together, Noel! I enjoy your posts!

Any trolling the skunks do will always be a weak effort when compared to the top-notch, best-ever troll job: Playing “Jump Around” at Huntington Bank Stadium after beating them.

I’m sure both students who attend the games will be loud and disruptive to UCLA’s opponents.

If Fleck should, for one reason or another, leave the U next week, the people on Coyle’s immediate call list should be the Gophers’ current assistant coaches, and Coyle should give one of them the position of interim head coach, telling him, of course, that he’ll be a candidate for the permanent...

I‘m still with Comcast, and I’m bundling their “Triple Play” (or some such silly name) package (Cable TV, internet, and landline phone). When I call and tell them to cancel my landline phone, they tell me it’ll be more expensive to have just the two parts than to stay with all three, so I keep...

“Jah Joyner Junior” would be a GREAT name!

From a blurb about Coach Dan O’Brien: O’Brien’s son Casey coaches quarterbacks. Casey, 24, the celebrated former Gopher who has courageously fought back from osteosarcoma — a rare bone cancer — has undergone three lung-related surgeries the last four weeks but is cancer free. Casey has had more...

CFN projects the Gophers vs UCLA in the Las Vegas Bowl. https://collegefootballnews.com/bowl-projections/bowl-projections-college-football-playoff-predictions-week-14

Syracuse, which just fired its Coyle-hired coach, is ranked above the Gophers, at 71. I don’t know what, if anything, that means. I just thought it was interesting.

I think mine are in.

Fun with sports arithmetic: Fisher’s $77 million buyout, over eight years, gives him an average of $9,625,000 per year. Yes, he’ll be paid more than $26,000 PER DAY to NOT coach Texas A&M. I’ve spent 62 years not coaching football at A&M. I’ve won as many championships there as he has. By...
