    For those wanting to know the new prices for season tickets ( football)

    Can anyone offer brief insight into the prominence of lowered prices for GT season ticket holders in this year's ticket availability announcement? Many Gopher fans are still reeling from a 3-year, tiered implementation of price hikes from a former, disgraced AD (don't ask) that led many long...

    Here's what the Star Tribune just posted... http://www.startribune.com/gophers-hire-jim-panagos-as-defensive-line-coach/504267592/ Looks like a pretty good connection with our DC Joe Rossi back at Rutgers. You had good decade or so of stability under CPJ...so some shuffling even at this...

    What is this thing about Waffle House?

    When home always include a trip to the Waffle House no matter how tight the schedule. In my younger days... when getting over-served at the clubs was very common... a 2 AM stop at the Waffle House for a double-cheeseburger, waffle, and bowl of chili...with lots of sweet tea...ensured no head or...

    Ticket Info Quick Lane Bowl

    We've been in that boat too many times...making marginal QBs look like the second coming of Johnny Unitas...again, Illinois fans look at their game against us this year as their best performance in the last decade. Someone did some type of statistical analysis on our 6 wins versus our 6 losses...

    Great to hear. I believe it was determined it was about equal travel distance from both locales...and of course both fanbases had to deal with it being on the 26th. Happy New Year.

    2018 Bowl Attendance Thread ....

    Supersize and OldJacket and anyone else who went...how well do you think Minnesota traveled? We have the reputation of not traveling well to bowl games. Glad you had decent company even with the outcome. Really hard to gauge on TV and haven't really seen it discussed up here.

    Thanks GTT88. We did play tOSU hard this season where ESPN's online recap reads: "No. 3 Ohio State holds off persistent Minnesota 30-14. Dwayne Haskins threw for 412 yards and three touchdowns as No. 3 Ohio State held off persistent Minnesota to win 30-14 Saturday in a game where little went...

    Quick Lane Bowl Postgame Discussion

    Maybe it's not a good test but here in Minneapolis THIS game was the proof that getting The Axe back was not a fluke for Coach Fleck. Actually that's a compliment to Tech...no matter how disappointing the performance on the field for you guys. Bowl games are even more fickle than regular...

    We have two injured seniors that are also beasts...both ironically from Georgia named Smith and Brooks...that benefitted from the redshirt rule...and are coming back next year. They are arguably better than Ibrahim. Nice problem to have...

    Two words...Robb Smith...former Defensive Coordinator. Totally discombobulated what today's evidence might suggest as a more than competent Defense. We lost to Illinois...I don't think there's a comparable for the ACC. It was BAD. Coach Fleck had to fire a professional friend. Not easy but...

    Ask a Gopher fan

    Thanks for the props. This is why they play the game. Really enjoyed the banter with you guys. First class posters on a first class site. I'll probably just lurk every now and then but may pop up from time to time. Now that we've met on the field for the first time means we'll all want a...

    Bowl game Uni.... some will need a suicide watch

    We've lucked out and it appears we'll have maroon pants (if the report pans out), which is a traditional color for us.

    Ask a Gopher fan

    Short answer is "no." Fleck's QBs are in the shotgun even under short yardage situations where most other teams would have the QB under center. Previous regimes...both Mason and Kill...employed this formation. Not saying it hasn't happened but much less the last couple of years. Maybe some...

    Will Woody’s GT defense stop Minnesota?

    We've got Bateman (from Georgia), Douglas, and Autman-Bell as proven go-to guys too. This is the first time in at least a decade where we had more than two dependable receivers to throw to. A note on Tyler Johnson...he frequently drops the first pass to him...then feels the need to make up for...
