The article is fantastic in this week's Sports Illustrated (pg. 54). My favorite line is when they are talking about how the state has embraced Tubby and the Gophers the article says,
"On a weekend when thousands of Minnesota Vikings playoff tickets remained unsold the day before their wild-card game against the Philadelphia Eagles, the Gophers' ancient Williams Arena, a 14,625-seat, 81-year-old field house affectionately known as the Barn, was filled to capactiy for the Ohio State game."
Great piece!
