Alright, so listen up, y’all. Gonna tell ya ’bout this here… uh… Minnesota and that UNC football game. Yeah, them college boys.
So, first things first, I heard tell it’s gonna be on TV. Fox Sports 1, they say. And somethin’ called the Big Ten Network too. Fancy names, I tell ya. Back in my day, we just listened to the radio, if we had one. But these young’uns, they got all them channels. More channels than chickens in a coop, I swear.
Now, when’s this game happening? Well, they say it’s on Thursday, August 29th. Gotta mark that on the calendar, if ya got one. And it’s startin’ at 8:00 PM ET. That’s Eastern Time, you know, for them city folk. Out here, we just go by when the sun goes down, but whatever.
They’re playin’ in somethin’ called Huntington Bank Stadium. Sounds like a big place, with a fancy name. Probably got more seats than my whole town got people. It’s in Minneapolis, that big city. Never been there myself. Too much hustle and bustle for an old woman like me.
- Game Day: Thursday, August 29th
- Game Time: 8:00 PM ET
- Where to Watch: Fox Sports 1, Big Ten Network
- Location: Huntington Bank Stadium, Minneapolis
This Minnesota team, they call ’em the Golden Gophers. Don’t ask me why. Probably somethin’ to do with them little critters that dig holes in the ground. And the other team, that UNC, they’re the Tar Heels. Heels made of tar? Sounds sticky. These young’uns and their names, I tell ya. Makes no sense to an old woman.
I heard tell that Minnesota, they played their first game way back in 1882. Beat some other school called Hamline University. And then, a few years later, they whooped Wisconsin real good. 63 to nothin’! That’s a whippin’, I tell ya. Back then, football was probably real tough. No fancy helmets or pads, just good ol’ fashioned grit.
Now, I don’t know much about these modern football rules. Too much passin’ and not enough runnin’, if you ask me. Back in my day, you just ran the ball straight ahead and knocked some heads. That’s how you played football. But these young fellas, they got all these fancy plays and formations. Makes my head spin.
But I reckon it’ll be a good game, though. College football always is. Lots of excitement and yellin’. And them cheerleaders, they sure are somethin’, ain’t they? All that jumpin’ and twirlin’. Reminds me of the time I tried to do the jitterbug at the county fair. Nearly broke my hip, I did. But that’s a story for another time.
So, if you’re lookin’ to watch some football, tune in to that game. Minnesota versus UNC. August 29th, 8 PM Eastern Time. Fox Sports 1 or Big Ten Network. Got it? Good. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed my chickens.
And one more thing, they say you can watch it on somethin’ called Fubo too. Says you can get all sorts of channels. SEC, ACC, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC… Sounds like a whole alphabet soup to me. But if you young folks like all that, go ahead and get it. Just don’t come cryin’ to me when your bill comes due.
Alright, I’m done talkin’ now. Go enjoy your football game.
