Spring Game Set for 11 a.m. on Saturday, April 22 at Huntington Bank Stadium


The University of Minnesota football team will hold its annual spring game presented by Holiday Stationstores, part of the Circle K family at 11 a.m. on Saturday, April 22 at Huntington Bank Stadium. The game will be broadcast live on BTN and can be heard on the radio on KFAN. Additional details – like parking, pregame fan activities and what time gates open – will be announced in the future.


The traditional spring tilt will once again end with the victorious team hoisting the coveted Goldy's Cup and a player being named the Sid Hartman Spring Game MVP.

While additional details will be announced in the future, two constants will remain.

First, fans are encouraged to bring a decorated oar to the spring game. These customized oars will be added to the inside of Huntington Bank Stadium where they adorn the hallway that the Gophers travel from their locker room to the field on game days. These inspirational oars are the final images the Gophers see before taking the field and serve as a way to connect the community and state with Gopher football.

Second, the team will once again host its annual diaper drive at the spring game. Gopher fans have donated more than 115,000 diapers in the last six years and fans are encouraged to bring diapers to the game and drop them off outside the stadium near Tribal Nations Plaza (outside of West Plaza). These diapers will then be donated to the Diaper Bank of Minnesota where they will then be distributed to families in need.

Go Gophers!!
 






I'm wondering who are the announcers?!!! Think we need local celebrity announcers. Or perhaps past players. They might have fun with it.
 


Hopefully it actually happens as planned this year. In the past 6 years since Fleck took over there has only been 1 "normal" spring game with fans allowed and no capacity limits.

If by normal, you mean only 5 healthy OL so they had to play every snap.

I long for actually getting to attend a Spring Game that isn't moved indoors due to weather.
 



Wait. This "historic" snowfall they say we are having right now will still have us snowed in then.
