    Thank you gopher fans.

    I hate I could not attend! Was planning on coming to Minneapolis for the game when we thought it was on Saturday but when it was announced as Thursday I couldn't get off work. Last year in Chapel Hill the Minnesota fans were great. Hopefully ours were hospitable guests this week as well...

    Tailgating options - UNC fan here

    Everyone hates Carolina. They refer to themselves as ABC fans--anybody but Carolina. The rival is dook. Of course the pinnacle is the basketball rivalry but while Carolina holds a decisive edge, the football games are usually one score games. Last year dook took the lead with 42 seconds to...

    On the plus side, UNC fans are the nicest ever

    I emailed our ticket office today and they told me the game date hasn't been finalized yet but would be the 29th or 31st. I really hope it is the 31st as I cannot come if it is that Thursday. Fingers crossed.

    On the plus side, UNC fans are the nicest ever

    Will be a Friday to Sunday trip. Of course Saturday depends on game time. Never been to Minnesota and looking forward to the trip!

    On the plus side, UNC fans are the nicest ever

    So glad you all felt welcomed. Sam Cassell famously dubbed our basketball crowd a wine and cheese crowd in the early 90s and the ABC crowd (anybody but carolina) extrapolated that to insinuate we are elitist. And that is not actually the case. So I am glad to hear differently. We have...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT NORTH CAROLINA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    All good man! You don't need me to tell you inflection gets lost in text. I am sure y'all deal with your fair share of difficult fans from other schools too. So i was just keeping in check. We get deluded with them being 8 miles from dook and 28 miles from the cesspool of ignorance that is NC...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT NORTH CAROLINA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Really man? I came in peace. We have no historical rivalry with you and ergo no shared disdain. No need to be a douche. And just FYI it was Georgia trying to he our doppelganger by using the same architect to build Sanford Stadium modeled after Kenan.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT NORTH CAROLINA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Multiple legendary origins of Tar Heel. One already explained. Another is that during a civil war battle all other regimens retreated except for one from NC. The description given to the commanding officer was they held fast as if tar were stuck to their feet. The officer replied, "God...

    Weather @ UNC

    How did you Minnesota faithful pull this off? Normally a 3:30 game in Chapel Hill mid September would be 90+ and humidity like a sauna! We were hoping for that for an advantage! Ha ha! Looks like a picture perfect day! Looking forward to it! A big Tar Heel welcome to all our guests and...

    UNC WR eligibility denied. Mack Brown lets loose on Statement.

    This, but the major issue is that Tez had already transferred and enrolled on January 9. Then they change rule on January 11 and deem him ineligible. You cannot backdate a new rule. Preposterous. The speed limit on an interstate cannot be changed from 65 to 55 today and then a police...

    Possible hurricane game vs UNC

    Models right now pretty consistent with turning north. I am hoping stays just west of Bermuda. This is a dangerous storm and could cause total destruction of the island if it were to take a direct hit. Let's also hope it stays of the US coast. The northeast is not equipped for this type of...

    Possible hurricane game vs UNC

    The European model indicates will turn north off shore. We played VT in a hurricane.

    🇮🇸 is magical! You will love it! We were on the first plane of tourists allowed back into the country when Iceland was the first European country to reopen its borders in May 2021 post pandemic. One of the most beautiful landscapes i have ever seen! And the people are great! Very...

    All Things Gophers at North Carolina Road Game Thread (Tips for Flights, Hotels, Bars, Restaurants, Game Tickets & More)

    Excited for this series. Even though September if this is a day game it will be hot. The visitors section is on the north side of the stadium and gets all the sun. It is a good 15 degrees warmer than the south side. Eighty degrees can feel like 90 and higher. Hopefully will be an evening...

    All Things Gophers at North Carolina Road Game Thread (Tips for Flights, Hotels, Bars, Restaurants, Game Tickets & More)

    Traffic is bad. But that is true of any football game anywhere. Parking is not as hard as the rumors. Tons of parking at hospital parking lots. Very close to stadium as well.
