Looks like they almost need to pull out some bleachers to accommodate the crowd. Must have missed it - is it a family-only event?

Surprised to see it in a practice facility. Looks like there isn’t much room for any fans even if they wanted to watch it.

Supposedly doing it inside I believe for weather reasons. That would be contrary I think to Matt Rhule's philosophy because he wants his players well prepared to play in all kinds of weather.

It was open to fans… I even got an email invitation. Earlier this week, with no fans signing up, and the weather being 39° here, they made the decision to move it indoors. Once it was moved indoors, no fans were invited. That’s how you do damage control when you don’t have any fans signed up. You apologize for not letting them in because of the weather.

Hahaha. Gophers stopped their clock and kept running plays. I’m assuming they thought they could delay the coverage of the Huskers.

Honestly, I don't personally care about the Spring games of competitors. I think they're pretty meaningless in terms of what to expect in the Fall. Nebraska Spring game isn't that indicative either but I do like to see our players in live action.

Minn was indoor last year also. Thought that was strange then and now. Probably only family watching.
