In my opinion, there were some crucial mistakes that TC & co made on Saturday. I would enjoy hearing your opinions End of the First half: - I am a nitpick on the first. Why was the decision made to spike the ball on first and goal? If we were going to run a sneak the next play, why wouldn't...

As I stated in my post after watching TCU crush the Gophers (who had their worst offensive performance I have seen in many years even though TCU has a good D), TCU will be the best team we play all year. However, I might need to recant my statement. The Gophers could play a better team in the...

There are a lot of Negative Nancy's out there these days and it's time to turn things around . . . We lost to a very talented team with a stout front 4 on defense, a dynamite QB, and play makers everywhere. We got owned offensively. I think we would have put up a few more points with a...

Quick question - can anybody tell me if the end zone will be painted maroon once Big Ten play starts or will it remain green since the Vikes have joined? I'd be disappointed if it will remain as a green background b/c it looks pretty tight when it's maroon . . . SKOL-U-MAH!!!

I think The Bank will have a modest swing of 800 Gopher fans vs. Nebraska fans after the NU victory. The additional fans either would have either sold their tickets (many of which would go to NE fans) or just stayed at home even if we get some decent weather . . . thoughts / estimates??? An...

i will continue to attempt to get more and more people involved with chanting SKI-U-MAH!!! after every kickoff on saturday. . . . i know there have been others that were doing this every kickoff too . . . let's try to get it going one final time before we go BOWLIN!!!! Here is a link to how my...

1) national publicity - read #2 before thinking this press is bad . . . 2) current and former NFL players are going to praise and stand behind Kill and Co for the job they have and continue to do . . . 3) national publicity - read #4 before thinking this press is bad . . . 4) people will...

I know Queis is having trouble with his lateral mobility, but it seems like his straight line speed and power are much closer to full strength. And, as our biggest and most athletic player, we need to figure out how to get him in the right position on the field. Here are my thoughts: 1) throw...

call me crazy but i think this would be sweet . . . here's the plan: 1) The Gophers take their first lead in the game 2) After the rouser, kickoff, goldy's pushups 3) immediately following Goldy's pushups, the student section starts chanting KILL . . . KILL . . . KILL . . . KILL . . . KILL . ...

Yeah, I’m pissed we cancelled the UNC games . . . Yeah, I’m pissed we gave up $800,000 . . . Yeah, I’m pissed we were embarrassed against Northwestern . . . Yeah, I’m pissed we are 0 and 2 in our conference . . . However, I support Kill & Co 100%. He just stated in his Thursday interview on...

It has been a few weeks since the last home game and were able to try to get the SKI-U-MAH chant going on the kickoff. I just want to remind everybody that section 236 and hopefully many others will be yelling this on every kickoff. Hopefully we can continue to build and get more Gopher fans...

THE GAME - We were ready to play. We came out hard. We messed up and then got beat up mentally and physically. - Iowa was ready to play. They were100% ready to handle Shortell. Why? Because Shortell runs the same system that Q does, which also puts Shortell in a less advantageous situation...

I haven't bought my tickets yet and am thinking buying tickets saturday morning from a scalper will be much better than stubhub . . . any suggestions would be appreciated . . . and what section are the allotment for Minnesota located??? thanks!

For anybody that did not see the article about the basketball recruit, Alvin Ellis, please check out the link and quote below. I will keep my thoughts simple . . . would a basketball recruit make an early and unexpected commitment if he went to a Gopher football game that was played at the...

I am impressed with the improvement in the defensive backfield. however, i don't think troy stoudermire has performed too well thus far. It is time for him to have a HUGE game. Maybe a kick return for a TD, a pass breakup, and an INT. He is the man and needs a big game . . . PACK THE...

There have been many discussions about how to incorporate the SKI-U-MAH chant into the game. I would like to share how I had some success last week. On each kickoff, after the student sections says 'oooooOOOHHH!!' and the ball is kicked, we yelled SKI-U-MAH!!! The first and second kicks had...

My only concern has to do with TCF . . . will it be able to narrow the sidelines, change the field to 80 yards, and push the bleachers in closer to the field in order to be prepared to play against UNH’s 9 man football team??? All joking aside . . . are there any big concerns? I’m predicting...

I believe MINNESOTA has the best quarterback in the Big 10. I will base my opinion on the second half of MarQueis’s season last year and ignore the WI game (when he had his twins the night before the game) as well as knowing the progressions he has made as the team leader. As we know, he has...
