I used to think that age and experience had nothing to do with one's ability to "understand life and the world, etc", but it does.

Holtz did for a game or two, but I think that it was because he was having back problems ore something. IIRC a guy named Bill Peterson did this at Florida State or maybe it was Darrell Mudra. Anyway they were ridiculed for it. Go Gophers! Edit: looks like Mudra regularly coached from the press...

I probably saw 10 or 12 games at Memorial as a HS student. Then I went to college out of state and have lived out of state since. I never saw one Gopher game at the Metrodome. In recent years my financial situation has improved and I've probably made it to 10 games at the Bank, and about 20 bowl...

Great thread. Luckily a friend's family had season tickets and often had an "extra ticket" and would invite me. The seats were in section 5, a few rows behind where Paul Giel and his glamorous wife would sit. My first game was in '73 vs a Lee Corso Indiana team that featured Quinn Buckner of...

Me too. After that Iowa loss I was not so sure. I was pissed and had doubts that we would win another game. Then after that game Fleck told us to "not give up on this team." I thought that that comment was so so "full of it", but it turned out to be true. Go Fleck, Go Gophers!

I reserve the right to be critical of Fleck😉, but I think that he's been the best coach of my Gopher fandom (1972-the present day). It's also nice that Elijah Spencer was the MVP. I would guess that he had a contingent of family and friends at the game being from Irmo, SC, which is about 100...

OK, OK, things are looking better, but the game in not over.

Well this "easy win" needs to be re-evaluated.

Yes, college football is not what it was, and never will be again.

Yes, someone will have to go 4-0 (3-0 with a bye) to win the championship. Agree. Because how a team plays in a specific game, varies greatly from game to game, and week to week, it is tough to accurately base seeds on what happened during the regular season. If a team "plays like a complete...

I've been thinking about this recently. As I understand it the English Premier League gives points for wins and ties. Then at the end of the season the team with the most points wins the championship. That kind of makes sense - over the length of the season they demonstrated that they were the...

Kinda like some hotel rooms, the room is cheap, but don't forget the resort fees, parking and taxes.

Took my daughter to a In-N-Out Burger yesterday for lunch here in Vegas. Several tables of Boise fans, who I assume were on their way to Phoenix.

Bielema is a king sized a-hole and he loves playing that role. He is so easy to despise....

I heard some radio talking head make this same argument this week. There may be some truth to that, but over the next three games they would be better off with him.

I hear you. I work at UNLV and we have started to "spill across the street." But there is not a lot of space and the neighborhood is home to some interesting characters. Another issue is that as soon as anyone hears that a university is interested in a piece of property, the price immediately...

I've thought about this and am responding to myself, kind of like the county agent in Green Acres. Anyway, it has occurred to me that USC's campus is similar to the University of South Carolina's (my alma mater). They are both highly urban, have very little space to expand to, and have pretty...

"I enjoy Jah Yoyner’s football card" Is this card intended to appeal to his Norwegian fans? (I admit, I'm as guilty of anyone as far as typos go.)

Just saw a bit of Tennessee walking off the field to their locker room with the Buckeyes baiting/harassing them the whole way (I did not see any of the events leading up to that odd/strange scene). I can say that I think that Ohio State's Sawyer needs to shut up and just play football.
