Did the drive from Nashville to Gainesville today, too. Atlanta driving is brutal, even on a Sunday. I will not repeat that again. But our stop at the Varsity by Georgia Tech was really neat. Also stopped at a barbecue joint in Tifton where Bateman is from. Our waitress said her husband was...

it might be interesting to compare results in 4-5 years of Kaden Johnson against our Wisconsin signee Lucas Finnessy. They appear to be similar sizes. Kaden is considered very athletic and yet Finnessy is quick enough to play DB despite LB size. Finnessy was low profile on the recruiting trail...

This fan likes playing for the Rose Bowl. I think this likely ruins it. Also it probably further diminishes lesser bowls - not that they aren’t trivial already. I still think split national champions is good for the game. That allows comparisons to be made for all eternity.

Each Gopher season starts with this exit.

Agreed. It’s not the quality or that the Gophers are down. Even when the Gophers won four straight conference titles it was a snoozer. The regional competition was more fun. A road trip to Duluth or St Cloud (and vice versa) was doable. Your neighbor could be your friend and enemy at the same...

From a marketing standpoint, the Gophers are a pretty compelling case. Coach of the year, receiver and defensive back of the year. Two thousand yard receivers. PJ draws attention. The records remain close for WI, PSU and MN - each has 10 wins. So the Rose Bowl certainly could choose MN and it...

If you are a Gopher fan, Patrick insulted you. I quit reading Souhan when he attacked Kill over his health. I’m done with Patrick, too. Hope Sid can keep going because there is less and less of the strib I’m going to read.

Compare our program to other Big 10 West schools. I would say are three established programs: Wisconsin, Chryst has five years but really is a continuation of the program and they continue to be the most dominant team; Iowa and Ferentz at 21 years where his breakthrough year was year 4...

Is it like there is a righteousness that one must stand given the gravity of the game? I was fortunate enough to start going to games at Memorial Stadium at age 10 when I could not see over standing men. Now the benches at Memorial did allow for standing on them to help out for those moments...

Just to be clear, standing doesn’t make you a better or more engaged fan. The energy of the moment often results in standing and of course let those moments seize you. But, in honor of those who have supported the Gophers since the last time they were Rose Bowl bound as well as the shorter youth...

Wisconsin gives it away again and suffers another Foxconn sized embarrassment

Architect great Frank Lloyd Wright was born in Wisconsin and a UW alum. He knew about axes as He had multiple axe murders take place at his home. And he was once arrested in Minnesota. Wright structures are like the Badgers, on the surface they may look good, but they are leaky and structurally...

Perhaps it has already been turned around, but the program hasn’t ‘made it’ until winning at least the West Division.

Having only one win against Maryland in Gopher history, tomorrow should be a great chance for Gopher fans to add to their Big Ten Bingo card. I was fortunate enough to be at College Park in 2016 when Rhoda led the Gophers to victory. With back to back victories against Rutgers and Maryland I was...
