I wanted to post the following to the StarTribune article "U professors criticize bowl boycott threat and Gophers coach", written by Randy Furst, December 20, 2016 - 8:59 PM, but I could not. StarTribune decided they don't want any comments. Alternatively, I tried posting to the StarTribune...

Did #4 Donovahn Jones play last night? I don't remember seeing him play or hear his name. Seems we could have used him last night. Is he hurt? Is he in the dog house?

1. I am playing a DVR recording of Götterdämmerung as pregame preparation for Paul Bunyan’s Axe. I thought it fitting. A cataclysmic clash between two schools / two states with Teutonic / Nordic heritage separated by and played along the banks of the river Rhine (Mississippi). I cannot think...

Now we have won 4 straight Big Ten games, something not done since I was a junior and Cal Stoll was coach. We were the third best team in the Big Ten, some distance behind the Big Two yet we were leaders of the Little Eight. But to equal Cal Stoll's 1973 Big Ten 6-2 record, we still have to...

How do you think this wind is going to affect the game, if at all? Temperature at 1100 is to be 41 degrees Fahrenheit climbing to 44 degrees Fahrenheit at 1300 before dropping again. Since TCF Bank Stadium is basically east / west, I would expect the wind to blow in from the open end and then...

Next time we take possession of the ball with some 47 or 45 seconds on the clock left in the 1st half, I hope we try to score instead of just sitting on the ball and letting the clock run out. We clearly needed all the points we could get in this game. I just don't understand why we didn't try...

Anybody know what radio station(s) are broadcasting the game? Seems FSU BC is dominating both ABC and ESPN2 where I live.

We are consistent if nothing else. We scored 13 points in all 4 of our Big Ten losses.:(

We seem to all be collectively grieving over Marqueis' overthrows in the 1st 3 quarters of the game. I was not there. I did not pay to subscribe to CBSSportsNetwork, or whatever they are called, so that I could record the game while I was sleeping. From all of my post mortem reading, it seems...

Traditional mid 20th Century Big Ten college game day atmosphere. There was no piped in recorded amplified artificial music that I remember hearing. If there was, it was filtered by the BTN2 broadcast. The NU band wasn't playing any of the Darth Vader theme music. I am so sick and tired of...

Fellow Golden Gophers, 1. As Nancy Reagan always used to say, "Just say NO to Yale, Harvard, and Notre Dame graduates!" 2. Glen Mason may be a Buckeye, but he "gets it' when it comes to successful football in the Big Ten Conference. Let Glen finish the job he started before Joel Maturi...

Folks, 1. I am quoting here a response to Nadine's blog by nomorebrew, Oct 9, 11, 5:29 pm Joel was just a "yes man" to Kathyrn Brown, the former Chief of Staff and Bruininks. What A.D in the country would let their head football coach berrate and poke them in the chest in front of the team...

1. Will we hear the Minnesota Rouser in its full glory after scoring points on the Big Ten Network (BTN) today? The Rouser is our trademark and signature. During the last two home games broadcast, that being the Iowa game of 2010 (I think it was ESPN or ESPN2 over my Verizon FIOS feed) and New...

Were we jobbed by Todd Geerlings and the officiating crew? I keep rewatching highlights on the Big Ten Network and I see 14 points worth of calls which were decisive in stopping us in our tracks. (1) Kim Royston is called for pass interference after making an interception. I don't profess to...

I remember a few years ago Glen Mason having his team drink pickle juice regularly for a couple maybe three weeks prior to the Baylor game. It was hotter than a pistol at Baylor, but I don't remember us having to stick IVs in any of our players. I am wondering if our team was drinking pickle...

Folks, 1. I think this is a good hire. Those who have read my threads know that my first choice was to keep Jeff Horton and his coaching crew for another one year probationary period. Nobody liked my suggestion. My second choice was Mike Leach. 2. Having said that, I like Jerry Kill...

I feel compelled to repost this. If we beat Iowa on 27 November 2010, I move that Jeff Horton's tenure as Interim Head Coach is extended through the 2011 football season. He should also be able to retain the coaching staff for an additional year. Firing and hiring left and right, and throwing...

I watched the game via ESPN3 on my computer since I live in Eastern Pennsylvania and ABC was carrying the Ducks vs. the Trojans. From my vantage point, viewing this over the internet, it would appear that it was an OSU home game. The OSU Marching Band was overpowering. I thought about this...
