Ah, you must have been a fan of The Purple People Eaters! Even though I was born in Chicago, Fran Tarkenton was my childhood idol and I thought Bud Grant was the toughest human on the planet. The first NFL game I ever watched was Super Bowl IX. Damn I’m old

I’m doing push ups during commercials

Haha. I’m watching the Mich-OSU game while my wife and two daughters are getting their hair and nails done for a wedding. Believe me, dude, I wouldn’t want to do anything else!

Agree. But Iowa has Kaleb Johnson and a Phil Parker coached D with NFL dudes

Since you were alive? 3-4. How’s Minnesota’s record in Rose Bowls since you’ve been alive?

You do realize that PJ Fleck is 29-32 in the B1G, right? Is that even mediocre? Do you even realize the state of your own program?

Dude! You didn’t actually flex that, did you? All before WW2. No way you can seriously claim 1960 when Minnesota loses the Rose Bowl by 10 points. Come on, man. 🤣

No, but should have had a shot at a field goal.

Ha! I probably should have said ex-military in the 80s and 90s prior to the “woke era”. I have respect for every veteran, regardless of branch. So thank you for your service! I met a retired Air Force colonel this summer that had over 150 sorties in Vietnam Nam and had been shot down twice. I...

Well, you’re getting a little personal there, tough guy. We don’t know each other. What you are bringing up about Ferentz are unsubstantiated rumors.

Those guys are good dudes and know ball. I attended UW from 1983-87 so I definitely appreciated the “good ole days”. “You can’t enjoy the peaks, until you have been in the valleys”. Our younger fans are learning this now.

Oh I’m sure you guys love it, I have no doubt. I just have seen posts in here where your brethren have questioned why their beloved coach is so disliked. You’ll never hear Ferentz after winning vs Wisconsin, say things like “we played for each other, they were playing for streaks” or scream into...

Chryst in his last 3 seasons went 13-11 in the awful B1G West. He didn’t staff his recruiting department for almost an entire year. He needed to be shown the door.

You are waaaay underestimating the impact of having the worst QB in the B1G for the entire season and the psychological impact on 18-22 year old teammates. The gophers may have been 3-8 or worse going into the Axe game. Whatever, we will never know.

Just average would have been a HUGE improvement. Locke is a great kid, very smart and a great teammate. He’s just not a D1 QB. Maybe he’ll be a coach someday.

I was born and raised in Chicago but love Wisconsin. Trout fishing in the Driftless Region is superb. I havent tried the Driftless in Iowa or Minny yet but need to.

Going to those 6 B1G champ. games was such an awesome time! You guys will NEVER go to even 1 in your lifetimes. 2-4 is not great, but only 1 was a blowout. But, as a fan, they were very entertaining. But you guys got your win the Rose Bol finally this year! Congrats, did you go?

I’m willing to give Fickell another 2 years, not much one can do at this point. This OC hire will be interesting. And getting a QB that is at least mid tier B1G is paramount. Myself, like most Wisconsin fans, consider Iowa to be our rival. But I really am a fan of Kirk Ferentz, I’ve always...

Who won the 2023 game, I forget. Also, that “magical” season in 2019 - all you needed to do to head to Lucas was beat the Badgers. Asses kicked 38-17 at Huntington. That must have sucked. Oh btw, I’ve been to all 6 of the B1G championship appearances at Lucas - it’s a blast win or lose. Yeah...
