    Gophs #8 in latest ESPN B10 power rankings

    Somewhere in that #6-8 range is where I hope our program can consistently live in the new B1G, with the occasional 2019-type season where we have the energy to earn a spot in the expanded CFP bracket.

    There will be nine different section final games played Thursday/Friday of this week at the Fargodome. If the Fargodome Authority wasn't giving the sections or MSHSL a deal, something tells me this tradition wouldn't be 30+ years old.

    It's also a great regional event, somewhat of a mini-Prep Bowl as games are stacked on top of each other with numerous sections/classes playing all day, with fan bases, bands, and students coming and going. You can buy a ticket and watch 4-5 games if that's your thing.

    The Fargodome has been hosting northwest Minnesota section final football games (numerous classes) since the early/mid 1990s.

    They appear to have dropped from AA to A in 2019. Formerly a strong Class B/Class AA program, enrollment has not been kind to them while old Heart O' Lake conference foes like DGF, Perham, Barnesville have grown/maintained due to closer proximity to a growing Fargo-Moorhead.

    Same boat in Tonka, although I don't see enrollment continuing to creep much more as they're already signaling unavoidable budget cuts coming soon. My kids fall into that "good enough for travel teams but doubtful they'll be in the basketball/baseball mix come high school" camp. I've told them...

    Gophers ICED OUT uniforms against Michigan

    35 years ago they were lucky to have two colors of pants. It wasn't a question because there wasn't a question.

    Current travel baseball coach here, and my line is "$400 bat won't fix a $40 swing"

    P.J. Fleck on Gophers/Iowa week: ‘I do like bacon, extra crispy’

    I agree with Fleck that it's a huge game and their focus should be on football. However, bacon should have a bend to it.

    You and me both. My middle schooler and I agreed to leave after Tonka's first offensive possession and when Edina hit that long pass to go up 28-7, he looked at me and said "let's go." 🤣

    Nelson was a class act (and still is). It is said he stayed on longer than planned with some of those down years so as to set the new coach up with more horses in the stable. Esch is not Nelson from the standpoint of community involvement/visibility, but it is hard to argue with his past...

    Crazy game. Edina up 21-7 at half and received 2nd half kickoff. Tonka had their best defensive stand up to that point and almost had QB sacked on 3rd down and he broke free and flipped a ~65 yard TD pass to a receiver who got behind the secondary. 28-7 and should have been the kill shot. Hats...

    Parking for UNC game

    Is C-86 contract only or can anyone park assuming availability? I normally get to campus early where parking isn't an issue but with schedule that day and state fair going on, I may go this route.

    All Things EA College Football 25

    I just downloaded the game to an Xbox S this week "for my boys." :) Dragan Kesich doesn't appear to be able to kick it past the 10-15 yard line on kickoffs, at least on the beginner mode. I had 3 punt returns for TD against Wisconsin in an 87-0 route. I don't think punt returns should be that...
