I've seen quite a few of those, too. How about the Hail Mary pass vs. Northwestern or the game where the timekeeper fell asleep vs. Purdue?? I paid good money for those games, too!! haha

Thanks for all the painful memories - one that stands out for me that I didn't see mentioned was the 1990 Utah game that we were tied 29-29 with just a few seconds left in the game. The Gophers are going for a fairly easy FG to win the game. But wait -- it's BLOCKED. and returned about 80 yards...

haha --- that was an easy one for Gopher fans!!

I was embarrassed when Gopher coach Tim Brewster had his rivalry with him and said a bunch of things about him that he didn't like him etc. Brewster just wasn't very classy there. That guy can flat out coach and Brewster -- not so much.

Frost had that magical year in 2017 for UCF when they went 13-0 and beat Auburn in a bowl game so they are obviously hoping that it will work again. I bet he does pretty well - it's tough to win in a league full of sharks in the Big Ten.

I think it would be a lot of fun! If the Gophers scheduled someone like an Iowa St. home and home for the Spring game each year I would be all for it!

Kind of funny how that goes, isn't it! Every year the people around me seem to get younger and younger!!

Remember back in the day when "locking down the borders" meant you kept one guy from leaving the state such as Kevin McHale or Randy Bruer each year? Times have sure changed around here!

I think it can be done sooner rather than later, but you have to be patient and give him a little time. It's a lot easier to build a team overnight, but it's pretty easy to see it all fall apart too. We would like a coach that can build a program with a strong foundation that lasts. This isn't...

Does anyone remember Briggs? He was a regular about 20 years ago -- he loved linebackers. The more linebackers on the field at the same time, the better. I guess he was old school!

I remember him quite well, too. Seemed like a great guy and he had some of the greatest stories from the glory years. He was one of the best!

Some of the posters on here are indeed legendary and I admire the passion that some of them have on here. I think we all want our favorite team to win but there always seems to be several paths in how to get there and we don't always agree on which road to go on. When I was young, the old...

The college football landscape is changing very quickly the last few years with new rules and different ways to build your team. The old school way saw teams dominate for years and years with very little chance to move up significantly. We just don't know how all this will pan out the next...

LOL -- good one -- it was THURSDAY night football!!

When I coached we had 3 rules that we always gave at the very first practice. 1) Have fun 2) Play hard 3) Never -ever- quit. One thing he will learn is by doing this he will tarnish his entire football career. 5-10 years from now he will not be known for any of his great plays, great worker or...

I have a co-worker who went to Virginia Tech and we have been saying all year this matchup was going to happen in the bowls. I feel a small wager is probably in store here! Gotta take the Gophers to extend their bowl streak!!

That's one of the fallouts from Michigan beating OSU 4 times in a row.....remember back when Herbie Sr. was being recruited, the Gophers landed Scott Schaffner out of Ohio that year who supposedly was the best QB in Ohio.

Badgers win 24-17. Everyone goes bowling.

Easy one -- Penn St 28 Gophers 10

Ouch! If Dutcher had been hired several years ago we would be well on our way to competing in the Big Ten but several mistakes were made. We have indeed hit rock bottom - this is going to be a very long season. Let's not blow it next time with another lousy hire.
