don't look now, but one of the acc teams fsu isn't playing so they can make room for playing idaho in the third week of november because that's what a you do when you want respect is 9-2.
Badgers dicked around just enough to keep the game interesting, but luckily the Gopher offense was completely inept.
And yes I saw a couple of missed interference calls, but that doesn't excuse the missed (WIDE) open receivers and turnovers.
The axe remains ours. A full decade at that.
If we lost I'd have been ****ed at:
Gordon being basically benched even though he was gashing the Goofs.
The stupid 4th down play.
The missed pick 6 opportunity.
Stave continuing to be Stave - at least in the first half. Starting to wonder if he's ever going to get better.
The missed field goal due to a bad snap. Special Teams Center - you have one ****ing job.
We tried to give it away, but the Goofs wouldn't have any of it.
I will say that the streak appears to be in jeopardy in the near future. Gophers are really improving and I was very impressed with their defense today.
They'll be good enough soon to take a game like today's.
Until then though... OUR AXE!
No doubt I am disappointed, but not at all surprised, that the Gophers lost to Sconnie again and the Badgers are now only one win from evening up the all-time series. I do take a very small bit of satisfaction in that I'm sure there were a lot of boorish, arrogant Badger fans (redundant I know) that were certain they'd cover and lost their money
It was obvious going in, however, that the Badgers were a superior squad when you looked at the results vs. common opponents. Wisconsin was hammering teams that we were barely beating or losing to. No matter what we lose, I do think Coach Kill is changing the culture and has the program headed firmly in the right direction.
Ever? You sound silly here. This year? No. Next year? Probably not. Year after? Still unlikely. But EVER? Anything can happen.
He's very young, hence, no sense of historical perspective. I'm sure he doesn't remember when the BADgers and Chickens were historically bad and neither were that long ago.

Oh, Iowa was the worst of the worst til the 80s. Wisconsin til the 90's. But when have the Gophers truly been a presence in the Big Ten since the 60's? Maybe '03? They still lost three conference games that year. So for 50+ years the Gophers haven't been a true threat in the B1G.

No one argues that. But saying that it can't happen EVER is a little silly.
Yeah, segregation could totally make a comeback, and then, watch out for those Gophers.

If Kansas State can win the Big XII here and there and Northwestern can have the run they had in the mid '90s-early 2000s (three B1G titles) then ANYTHING can happen. Will it? Who knows, but to say never is ridiculous.

Don't waste too much time and energy trying to reason with that doofus.
Nice win for ASU in the Rose Bowl to clinch the Pac 12 Southern Division, the toughest college football division according to Jeff Sagarin. Improbably, if ASU can beat the U of A in their rivalry game next week, ASU will host the Pac 12 Title game, given that Stanford has two conference losses to ASU's one. ASU has gradually gotten better as the season has gone by, unlike ASU teams under Dennis Erickson, where they started fast and then imploded in November.
