Against the big, bad TCU defense, ball carriers probably look like they’re playing Frogger. You know, that game we all used to play when we were waiting at the dentist office. The goal, of course, is to navigate your way to the other side without getting run over by a car.
Minnesota Athletics rolled out a similar concept before the opener against TCU next Thursday. “Go Gopher Go” forces you, the gopher, to make it to the end zone without getting hit by a TCU player or crushed by a pushup plank or Goldy’s slide. Otherwise, you fumble.
You can play the game here. But you’ve been warned. It’s addicting.
