This week, the Minnesota Golden Gophers (Mark Coyle’s special place) unveiled a new helmet design inspired by their mascot, Goldy Gopher. Spencer Hall was so horrified by the act, he had this to say:
“At least Alabama gives you the courtesy of just losing to a color and a number. This? This is horror, a beating served with an adorable smile on its face. This is potentially taking a beating from a cartoon rodent that only wants to serve you hot dish, and then crack the casserole over your head. Don’t lose to Minnesota when they’re wearing these helmets, is what we’re saying.
