    To be fair, they would have had a strong chance to win it in 2020; Covid shut them down. You are correct though; there have not been many classes that have gone their 4 years without a championship. And the demographics have change drastically. Football may be ok, but hockey has been hit...

    Because after they play the only 3 songs they know how to play, the halftime show would be over.... :D

    Quarterback sneak. One thing I don't understand

    Pfft........that's just another step to the Skynet machines taking over! The world was a better place when my car got 40 rods to the hog's head for fuel efficiency. And give me 2 sticks & a chain! I love me some measurements with crowd gasps. Plus the simple pleasure of watching a D jump up...

    I'm worried PJ will become a thrill seeking degenerate play calling gambler now

    I think it's about the game situation & how it's going. Until the 3 & out between the tying & go ahead TD's, USC's offense was moving the ball with relative ease. Fortunately we made a play on the INT; otherwise they may have kicked a FG & went up 10.....probably knew that a FG wouldn't be...

    Lost cooler in Ski U Mah lot

    Only way I'd attend is if there was a head table with some panel guests. I'd want Dance4Raiders to talk weather, ChinaGopher to talk about the chairleg, Kelly Leaks to talk about his rise from the dead, & Kyle Kessel to talk about recruiting.

    Golden Gophers in the NFL - 2024 Season

    That dude has always been one of my favs. Kind of seemed Boddy-Calhoun got more press, but Murray was as close to a lock-down corner, shut down one side of the field as we've ever had. Just did his job....well....and now hie's in the league making it nice.

    The Athletic: Is Michigan-Minnesota still a rivalry? As Big Ten expands, the Little Brown Jug endures

    I think many fans enjoy the history of the rivalry, but I think both Michigan & Minnesota fans both know their rolls & they placement in the pecking order. The bigger rivalry between the two is in hockey. Maybe start involving a mini-jug with that....

    Predict the Score Thread: Little Brown Jug Game, Minnesota at Michigan

    Gophers come out hot; build a 28-7 lead heading into the 4th. Michigan throws screen pass after screen pass, along with a costly pick 6 & Michigan wins 38-35. Still too soon?

    NAIA Football Team in Arizona caught smuggling migrants for money

    Nester "The Foot" Higuera... I wonder if there's any relation to former Brewers pitcher Teddy Higuera..... ;)

    Pretty surprising result to me after seeing Edina last week. Not as much that Tonka came on to score some points, but that Edina stopped scoring after coming out with 28.

    I was at game. EP definitely needs to figure some other method of offense against Edina as this is now 2 times in a row Edina has dared EP to throw the ball. I do think EP found a little something offensively in the 2nd half in case they play again. The problem is if they played again, I...

    Heard rumor that Maple Grove will be joining the Lake Conference. Probably not a huge impact with football due to the way scheduling is now....hockey schedules for those teams is going to be a complete bloodbath.

    Gophers football missed whopping 22 tackles in loss to North Carolina

    8 or 9 missed by Lindenberg & 23 missed by the team? "7....MINUTE.....ABS!"

    Post Game Thread: Gophers Lose to North Carolina

    RE Right Hash Kick: I HAVE to believe that Fleck asked Dragan where he wanted the ball & he said a little more to the right side; he just didn't come through. If not, that truly is coaching malpractice. The absolute first thing a coach should be thinking about if playing for a game winning...

    I agree. I’m not going to act like he was awesome, but he’s better than AK.

    ***OFFICIAL NORTH CAROLINA AT MINNESOTA 2024 SEASON OPENER IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Complete team loss. Coaches, offense, defense (played well overall but key penalties kept drives alive that led to points) & special teams. I do think Brosmer has the ability to sling it, but will they let him? Taylor & Major should be good and take the load off, but it won’t matter if they...

    On an encouraging note, I was told that there are 2 hockey kids from EP that will be starters (or at least major contributors) on the offense for EP this year. Add in Mason West still double dipping at Edina & it's a good thing to see. Granted, I do think it unfortunately is the exception...

    Darius Taylor and Daniel Jackson dealing with injuries.

    I actually wasn't much of a fan of the show. Most episodes seemed to not focus on football & more on Hayden in his cabin and the relationship with his daughter and her artsie beatnick boyfriend Stuart.
