Nostradamus had a fish head

In a recent post, I poked fun at Glen Mason and his Minnesota Golden Gophers for their propensity to choke away big leads. Yea verily Glen came thru as he and the Gophers choked away a big one at the Insight Bowl, losing 44-41 to Texas Tech in OT. Sounds bad? Its worse than it sounds, as the Gophers led 38-7 in the third quarter. Sounds worse? Hold on. After leading 38-7, the Gophers collapsed in choke-tacular fashion, as the Red Raiders tied the game with a 52-yard FG as time expired. Sound even worse? Hold on. It turns out, the Red Raiders had just staged the largest comeback in Bowl history, at the expense of the Gophers.
