I'm immediately adding: "Highly Skilled in Common Sense" to the Skills section of my resume. It's definitely a lost art. Used to be a given, but in today's world, you can never assume the simplest things...
Rivalry trophies Minnesota football is currently in possession of:
β’ Floyd of Rosedale (Iowa)
β’ Little Brown Jug (Michigan)

Itβs the FIRST time since 1978 the Gophers have had ALL three trophies at the same time.
Hardware holders.

TOMORROW NIGHT. THE RIVALRY RETURNS. π₯ #PrideOnIce@GopherSports
It's time for a mid-year check-in on our preseason Win Total Picks! π

This is the first time since October 1990 that the AP No. 1 team has lost to unranked teams in back-to-back weeks.

The P.J. Fleck Gophers experience can fit into 5 types of games based on betting odds
βHuge favorite (20+): (Usually) a convincing win (BG in 2021)
β6-14 point underdogs (this is why he has found success at MN): A lot of great wins *(Michigan and Washington this year)
β5-19 point favorites: Typically win, but closer than it should be
βHuge underdog (20+): Get destroyed
Tonight's game
β4-point spreads either way (toss-ups): Team completely forgets how to play the sport of football
This has happened too many times under Fleck, and it's baffling every time.
Nebraska radio just said at the start of the fourth quarter that if youβre listening while working the farm on a combine, put your fours in the air. How can you not be romantic about college football?

You canβt overstate how tough it is to win at Husky Stadium.
Washington had lost just twice here since the start of 2023.
Ohio State. Oregon. Thatβs it.
Now add Minnesota to the list.
The Gophers came to Seattle needing their first road win since 2024 and got it. γ½οΈ
