Why the hell is ESPN Gameday in Fargo? I mean, at least it isn’t Grand Forks so there might be someplace better than an Olive Garden to eat, but really.
@raven: I had to check which of my posts you meant, because it turns out that the Gophers played a non-conference team with a winning record last year, too. One of them. 7-6 UNLV. Our other three non-Big 10 opponents had a combined 12-24 record.
God, we’ve sucked at football for 50 years. Bernie Bierman, where have you gone?
@raven: My first experience as a Gopher football fan was Lou “The Music Man” Holtz leaving townto go to Notre Dame, leaving behind the same wake of NCAA sanctions he left everywhere else he ever coached.

If Boston College really wants to honor the memory of Welles Crowther, it should restore men’s lacrosse to NCAA D1 status. All the red-bandana-motif football shoes in the world aren’t enough.

There is no net positive, from a fan’s perspective, with conference realignment.

@Amir Khalid: It’s going to be a long season for Newcastle United fans. Pretty much all we’ve got is wondering when Pardew gets the sack and who follows him.
@raven: There’s no such town as Chestnut Hill. It’s in Newton.
Edit: More technically, Chestnut Hill is an unincorporated village that is spread across three actual municipalities and BC is in the part that’s in Newton.
“Chestnut Hill is an affluent New England village located six miles (10 km) west of downtown Boston, Massachusetts, United States. Like all Massachusetts villages, Chestnut Hill is not an incorporated municipal entity. Unlike most Massachusetts villages, it encompasses parts of three separate municipalities, each located in a different county: the town of Brookline in Norfolk County; the city of Boston in Suffolk County (parts of its neighborhoods of Brighton and West Roxbury), and the city of Newton in Middlesex County. Chestnut Hill’s borders are roughly defined by the 02467 ZIP Code. Chestnut Hill is not a topographical designation; the name refers to several small hills that overlook the 135-acre (546,000 m²) Chestnut Hill Reservoir rather than one particular hill. Chestnut Hill is best known as the home of Boston College, part of the Boston Marathon route, as well as the Collegiate Gothic canvas of landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted.[1]”
