The tailgating experience should be an integral part of any stadium planning, IMO. Without that, a program just ain't fan-centric. It's a dirty shame the Vikes and Gophers both fall short, especially since the Vikes fan base when the PPE ruled the earth essentially invented modern-day tailgating. That was US! I was there. Steaks and brats on the BBQ, wine & beer galore, frisbee/footballs filling the air, music blasting.

Went to the Vikes game at Lambeau a couple of weeks ago. My 88 year-old dad was there, as was my younger brother and his son. We had a handicapped placard for dad, and were able to part right in front of the atrium at Lambeau. Packers fans on every side, but we were treated like royalty (purple, right?!!) and couldn't have been happier about the day (except for the final score, of course). Tailgating is a lot of fun. Man, I've missed it.

Esp on campus. Getting the kids lubed up before the game makes them much louder inside and can feed the players on the field.

This University has a lot of problems imo mainly from the top. Must be a bunch of old bag ladies on the board of directors.

Vision, decision making, timing and accuracy all absolutely on point.

16/17, 298 yards, 3 TDs. Only incompletion was on heavy pressure and he had to get rid of it.

Those numbers in a first half for the Gophers are unprecedented I believe. 300 yards in a half? Video game numbers.

Was hoping it would be a strength of our team, but it's, by far, our biggest weakness on offense.

Par for the course for some teams.

Nice to see this happen for the U

Took the foot of the gas there a little too much a little too early, but held on. Impressive game until the last 6 minutes or so.

Not too shabby, but room for improvement.

If the O-Line was better, he wouldn't have had to get rid of the 1 incompletion...

21/22 just doesn't happen very often.

Appears Fleck has completed the transformation in to a passing team.

Really disappointed about the oline. Figured they'd be road graders this season.

With those 3 WRs we should be able to pass on every team. Has to be one of the best WR groups in College Football.
