California's restrictions on crowd size has the CFB Playoff considering moving the semifinal to Arlington, TX. End result would be no Rose Bowl game at all. With our luck, it's shocking this pandemic didn't happen in the year the Gophers finally make it to Pasadena.

And people thought our timing was curious. Chip Kelly rumors in overdrive.

The Gopher basketball and hockey teams playing at Madison Square Garden in January 2018 probably makes it highly unlikely the football team would be in play for the Pinstripe Bowl in 2017 -- no way they'd ask Gopher fans to travel to NYC twice in three weeks. In turn, that might make the...

Found these quotes interesting, though we all know money always wins: "Having bowls go dark may be the way to slow the process down,'' Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby told CBS Sports. He is also chairman of the Football Oversight Committee. "There are people who absolutely want bowls to go...

The next great NFL running back out of Wisconsin makes it official. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/12/10/melvin-gordon-to-leave-school-early-for-nfl-draft/

A Citrus Bowl victory would give the Gophers a fourth straight season improving their win total under Jerry Kill: from 3-9 in 2011 to 6-7, to 8-5, to 9-4. It would mark the first time Minnesota has improved its win total in four consecutive seasons since 1945-48, when Bernie Bierman's second...

Wow. Citrus Bowl back in play.

"8-4 Minnesota, which hasn’t played in a New Year’s bowl since 1962, appears a lock for one of the Florida bowls. Conversely, having made three straight Sunshine State trips, 9-3 Nebraska will likely head west."...

Digging for historical trends? It's been 10 years since the Gophers last began 2-0 in Big Ten play - the 2004 squad was 5-0 before stumbling to five losses in its final six games. Minnesota topped Northwestern 43-17 in the conference opener that year, giving it something in common with each of...

Credit to Omega015 for the stat - if Streveler starts on Saturday, he will be the third freshman quarterback in Kill's four seasons to make his first career start on the road. I was lucky enough to witness the previous two in person, and will be in Fort Worth this weekend, and I also was there...

Since Northwestern finally won a bowl game last year, the Gophers have moved into some dubious territory: 1. Ball State, 6 (Last win: none) T-2. Kansas State, 5 (2002 Holiday Bowl vs. Arizona State) Minnesota, 5 (2004 Music City Bowl vs. Alabama) UTEP, 5 (1967 Sun Bowl vs. Mississippi) Western...

Certainly not a likely scenario, but it could happen. It hinges on Northern Illinois losing the MAC Championship Game to Bowling Green. That drops them out of the BCS, freeing another spot for a "Power 5" conference. If Oklahoma State beats Oklahoma, the Cowboys go to the Fiesta Bowl. If...
