per Greder:

After letting those games slip away, Minnesota’s losing streaks to Wisconsin grew to 12 consecutive defeats since 2003 and 10 straight losses in Madison dating back to 1994. The Gophers (8-3, 5-3) will get another chance to snap the skids when they meet No. 5 Wisconsin (9-2, 6-2) at 2:30 p.m. Saturday at Camp Randall.

Gophers players can’t recall the last wins over their rival to the East. Quarterback Mitch Leidner was 9 years old, running around as a boy in Lakeville the last time Minnesota possessed the axe.

“I don’t remember much from 2003 — unfortunately,” Leidner said.

Only 18 players were even alive the last time Minnesota won in Wisconsin’s capital city. Safety Damarius Travis was seven months old in Florida and had yet to walk.

“Man, that’s a long time,” Travis said. “Wow.”
