per RandBall:
TCF Bank Stadium is a decade old, no longer new and exciting. The stadium itself won’t sell tickets.
Four head coaches (five counting interim Jeff Horton in 2010) have roamed the sidelines already, trying stir up passion in the fan base while getting over the hump competitively — two notions that are fiercely tied together.
The latest coach to try, P.J. Fleck, has the best chance since Glen Mason in 2003 of doing both.
This game against Penn State probably won’t be the only chance, and I dare say the one three weeks from now against Wisconsin will be even bigger once it arrives.
But the cold reality is this: At some point, the Gophers are going to have to do the thing they haven’t done in as long as anyone can remember and win a program-changing game.
Might as well start Saturday.
