You may have thought the Gophers Gnome were dead. They weren’t, but they were certainly in a low snark hibernation of sorts. Sure, they sort of popped up in the Game Central posts from time to time but they hadn’t gone #FULLSNARK in over 2 years. But this past weekend they were awakened from their slumber.
First, it was Nebraska absolutely crapping the bed against Illinois when they were two touchdown favorites. And then came the offensive pass interference heard round the world, which the Gnomes are pretty sure Purdue fans will complain about longer than they lamented The Fumble from 2004.
