The last two games sucked. No way to sugarcoat it. The Big Ten West was there for the taking. We blew it. But guess what, if we want to shock the world and send a message, winning at Ohio State will do it. Bigger upsets have happened, so why can't we be on the fun side of a "holy shit, did you see what Minnesota just did" type of upset?

The odds are stacked against us, but at some point lightning in a bottle needs to happen to this program for one game only. Tomorrow is that opportunity.

GET 'ER DONE FLECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

A big part of Gopher fandom has been the near complete absence of shocking upset wins, in spite of having the overall profile of a program who would pull off a few.

The last one was in Columbus, on October 14, 2000

It's time.

Where’s the basketball thread Stanley?
 

Greater combined score:
Gopher men’s hoops + football vs tOSU and USC-Upstate
 


When I watch fOSU Over Rated Harrison is not even targeted. I plan to go into full jinx mode on him starting right now. Today we run with him, today we stay with him and we shut him down because we can.
 




Looking sharp out there in the Chrome Goldy Head - White - Maroon big away game uni.
 



Can't have those against Ohio State. Wide open WR on the cross, should have been an easy 15-20 yards
