Gopher Football Could Be a Hot Ticket Event!


There won't be tickets for sale for a couple of years, but Minnesota's home football games in 2015 could be quite a hot commodity.

The Big Ten revealed its 2015 and 2016 slates on Monday. After a four-year absence from their schedule, the Gophers will face Ohio State at TCF Bank Stadium on October 13, 2015. Minnesota also will host Nebraska, Iowa and Wisconsin that season. The Gophers will play at Ohio State on November 5, 2015, their first trip there since 2009.

Of course I'll let you know when these tickets go on sale, but plan ahead and get your tickets for this season!

Gopher Spring Football Practices


Marqueis Gray is someone the Gophers will look to for leadership and execution at the quarterback position. The Gophers have found similarities between Gray and Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III, leading the coaching staff to visit Baylor in hopes of some tips.

Gray accounted for more than 2,400 yards last year.

Further reasons for optimism include head coach Jerry Kill. He's a good coach and has slid in with the Gophers almost seamlessly. Though the Gophers are unlikely to be the most talented team in the Big Ten, Kill will keep the Gophers competing with the best.

Spring practices went well for the Gophers!
