Gophers going to Houston for a Dec 27 game. Nebraska and Michigan get the Gator and BWW bowls in Fla. gophers get no respect.

They play Syracuse

It isn't the money that upsets me since after expenses all money is pooled in conference and split. I think the Fla games are better recruiting games




TJSweens -> RE: Gopher Football (12/8/2013 7:22:51 PM)

Can't complain too much about Michigan when we lost to Michigan.

Agree, that stinks.

And it's hard to prove yourself at crappy bowls in Houston on the 27th of December.  Gator Bowl would have been a nice oppotunity to prove whether fans will travel for legit bowls.

If Michigan had 8 wins, then I'd agree with you but they had only 7

Not to mention we were 4-4 and Mich was 3-5 in the same division. That said, the bowls can pick whoever they wish. We just need to win more games and get a bigger traveling fan base. Then that kind of stuff will take care of itself. Brick by Brick.

I expect a bowl win this year and will be disappointed if we lose. A decisive win would be nice but will settle for just a win. Certainly a step in the right direction when we are complaining about going to Houston this year. A couple of years ago any bowl game was good news. [8|]

The Gophers also had a preseason schedule with 4 human sacrifices. Given how weak our schedule was and the fact that we lost the head to head match against a very beatable team, I can't complain. Look at this way; last year we got to this bowl as kind of a fluke because of other bowl selections.




Dave E -> RE: Gopher Football (12/9/2013 10:59:14 AM)

I also hate to complain -- I get why the Gator bowl thinks Nebraska is a safer choice.  Let's force the issue by winning 2-3 big games next year.




Jeff Jesser -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 5:45:22 PM)

Well, that was a pretty shitacular quarter of football [>:]




Karl H -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 5:45:53 PM)

MN 0 Syr 0 after the 1st qtr. Gophers look a little rusty so far.




Mr. Ed -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 6:21:55 PM)

The QB play uneven at best for MN.

It's a testament to the coaching of the rest of the team that they won 8 games this year with the QB results they have.

Sorry, mispelled it. "half".




Karl H -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 6:35:20 PM)

MN 3 - Syr 7 at the half. Not a good first half for the Gophers. Thoughts of the Iowa game coming to mind.




twinsfan -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 6:35:36 PM)

Unfortunately I haven't been able to see much of the 1st half. (well...maybe fortunately?) This is concerning.

I'll be able to watch the entire 2nd half.




Jeff Jesser -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 6:36:38 PM)

Sorry for ur luck [:o]




JT2 -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 6:38:07 PM)

Over 12 quarters since our last offensive TD.




twinsfan -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 6:44:18 PM)

I feel sorry for the Rose Bowl if this is the preview.




GopherFan34 -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 6:45:18 PM)

That might be the worst half of football in a bowl game I've seen in my entire life.




twinsfan -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 6:55:28 PM)

What is Jerry doing? Come on, man. Can you imagine if he has a problem down there in the 2nd half? Not worth the criticism dude.




Karl H -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 6:55:46 PM)

Syracuse 4-0 when leading at the half.
Minnesota 0-4 when trailing at the half.

Kill down on the field now?!




twinsfan -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 7:04:40 PM)

Nelson's throwing the ball like he's in a shot put competition.




twinsfan -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 7:08:41 PM)

Something is seriously wrong with Nelson this game.




Karl H -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 7:09:50 PM)

Just awful on most throws. We need to RUN the ball on first down.




twinsfan -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 7:20:39 PM)

pathetic tackling




twinsfan -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 7:21:12 PM)

4th freaking down and they blew the tackle. now it's gonna be a TD and feel like game over.




Jeff Jesser -> RE: Gopher Football (12/27/2013 7:23:26 PM)

Did the "first round pick" make the trip?
