    Rose Bowl makes another push to be left out of CFP semifinal rotation in favor of historic New Year's Day date

    The only issue I can see is the timeslot. There seems to be complaints about the last game ending so late due to not starting until Rose Bowl ends. Rose Bowl says it's willing to be flexible, but taking the parade into account, I'm guessing they won't be willing to move the start time up more...

    Golden Gophers in the NFL - 2024 Season

    During 2011-2014, I'm pretty sure the "Gophers in the Pros" segment during commercial breaks at the stadium was just a weekly update on Decker's game the previous Sunday....

    Nick Saban $500K/Yr as "Professional" at Alabama

    https://www.al.com/educationlab/2024/02/nick-sabans-lasting-impact-on-alabamas-campus-students-that-pride-shows.html Understand at first glace, 500K may be a little eyebrow raising, but it's probably not too far off from being a fair reward.

    A deep Duck dive into the 2024 Gophers.

    I think sometimes a guy gets hopes up after doing something & we as fans think that it can be the norm rather than the fluke it was. I'm talking about his performance against Wisconsin in 2022. We loved the way he competed in that game & thought it could be the norm. I was the same way about...

    Minnesota-Iowa: NBC Primetime 9/21

    I like smash-mouth defensive football as well, but I would hardly call last year's game a result of that compared to sub-par offensive & QB play.

    Minnesota-Iowa: NBC Primetime 9/21

    https://x.com/Brett_McMurphy/status/1797688111276691663 I'm guessing NBC loved the Minnesota-Iowa game last year with all the action that they couldn't wait to get it again for all the primetime eyeballs to see....

    Friday Night Games

    How about the people with younger kids that have activities on Saturday's.....are they allowed to get refunds? In 2022, I made it to the bank for 8 quarters (2nd half of Colorado, 2nd Half of Purdue & the Rutgers game) missing the rest with due to activities. Every day & timeslot has a...

    Friday Night Games

    As long as it doesn't become a yearly tradition & it's maybe once an every 3-4 year thing, I guess I don't really have a huge problem with it. I'm good with OSU/MI/PSU not having to ever host any Friday games, but I wouldn't mind if they were made to have a Friday road game once every 5 years...

    2024 Gopher Hockey Offseason

    Agree. I don't think it will affect Minnesota too much.

    +1 Personally, I think Begley is serviceable as a 7th if necessary.

    Any guesses on the next Gopher baseball coach??

    2-3 years ago, he would have been very interested. Unfortunately, timing didn't work out. Is happy at KU.

    Cameron Begalle Commits to Gophers! (UPDATE: 11/13 - Cameron de-commits from MN)

    I don't know.....I don't see color. I see players. I'm glad you realized I was trying to be funny. Seemed like it worked to some. Maybe me, you & OutState wouldn't be good tablemates at Acme?

    I was thinking more of a Cooper Kupp/Joe Jurevicius/Ricky Proehl/Wayne Chrebet/Ed McCaffery/Julian Edleman/Danny Amendola/Adam Thelen/Tom Waddle type guy.......

    CFN: Predicting Every Team, Every Game (Minnesota: 6-6; win over Iowa)

    You never know. Last year, we beat the division champs. Went 1-4 against the rest.... With predictions on paper ahead of time, the reality often is there's a game you win that you weren't supposed to & a game you lose you weren't supposed to. I got no issue when predictors like this take...

    Is this the end of court storming?

    Seriously.....couldn't pick a school to be a part of this more than you could Duke. I'm surprised when the dude wasn't bowled over, there wasn't a bench shot of 6 walk-ons all standing up & motioning traveling/charging......... In all seriousness, discussion needs to happen to allow for...
