We’ve got ourselves a West Coast test!!!! And it’s a late one!! After last weeks game was cut short and the competition was well, not good, we got a tough one this week.

This is a biggie. 2-0 vs 2-0. Both led by young QBS. This is a game we need to get a W if we are going to have a breakthrough season. This is also a game a mature team taking the next step wins.

Take your afternoon naps Gophers fans because we need your energy ALL. GAME. LONG!!! 9:30 kickoff in MN, 10:30 for our East Coast friends. I’m sure we’ll have a lot of fans in attendance as well.

GET ‘ER DONE FLECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I mentioned that an elderly Minnesota fan hit my beer bong before the 2006 game, and went on to talk about it on John Maddens radio show

Well I now have evidence. So at least some experiences on frat row are good.

Enjoy the game!

I hope there are not any Marshawn Lynch or Desean Jackson like talents lying in the weeds.
 







Is Cal the most similar program to Minnesota?

  • Urban state flagship schools in pro markets
  • Similar recent and historical results
  • Golden (Insert Furry Brown Mascot)
  • Plays for an Axe against a red and white rival on the last week of the season
  • Cal has 5 really old Nattys, Minnesota has 7
  • Cal ended Minnesota's three-peat in 1937
  • Cal opened Memorial Stadium in 1923, Minnesota in 1924
  • Cal is 12-13 all time in bowls, Minnesota is 13-12

I often said Pitt or Georgia Tech before but there's a lot of of similarities to Cal, too.

The all important nerd meter has Cal up 100 to 1.
