I'm the lone local in a group of six season ticketholders and, as you can imagine, the rest of the group saved their travel dollars for next Saturday's showdown with the Badgers. I can't make the game this Saturday either so I wanted to see if any Gopher fans on this board would be interested in...
Fodder for debate, based on where the Big Ten teams netted out. Listed by rank within the conference, with the national rank in parenthesis. A lot of teams jammed up around those high 20s and 30s. Also, a few interesting rankings. Nebraska below Wisconsin and Northwestern??
1. Ohio State (8)

I'm not saying he hasn't heard that, but it's my understanding Royce would have to pay his own way if he transferred to Iowa (unless that's just a football rule). I'm not trying to get everyone worked up - though I'm sure the mention of the word...
An interesting story about the Nebraska center who would likely have been chosen in April's draft, but has opted not to work out for NFL teams and has really eliminated the idea of playing in the NFL in order to pursue other interests.
As the story mentions, the more we find out about the toll...

Includes:
-Sat, Jan 23 v. St Cloud St
-Fri, Feb...
All I know about Utah Valley is:
-It's in Orem, Utah (about 25 miles south of Salt Lake City)
-They're in a piecemeal basketball conference that spans from Utah to Texas to New Jersey
-They beat North Dakota State before losing to Cal State-Bakersfield
-There is only one player on the roster...
Have seen a handful of threads talking about tonight's opener against Tennessee Tech this week, but today is GAME DAY. Where's the chatter about the game? I know it's not a marquee match up... but, in no particular order, I'm hoping to see:
-A Gopher pull down 10+ rebounds
-A 2-to-1 turnover...
Seems appropriate to check this link since both coaches we'll see at TCF this weekend - Brewster and Zook - are pictured rocking mean-ass mustaches in their playing days. Personally, I think Brewster should regrow his.

Thought this was worth sharing. Any chance of a 4-4 Big 10 season hinges on winning the three remaining home games, which would include our Nov. 7 date with the Illini.
