Nate Silver estimates each team’s chance of advancing to any given stage of the N.C.A.A. tournament bracket. http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2013/03/18/sports/ncaabasketball/nate-bracket.html

One highly improbable & far-fetched scenario where the Hawkeyes get an NCAA bid and the Illini don't starts with you guys knocking them out in the first round of the BTT. So I am solidly in your cheering section today. :-)

Nice game. Thoroughly outplayed my Hawkeyes on Saturday. I haven't been out here in a while, but felt the need to add my accolades to the Gopher players and coaching staff on a nice finish to their season.

Understanding that the Hawkeye squad is young and not that talented (the Gophers sweep the position-by-position matchup game), but to come out, build a big lead, step on their throat, and put Iowa away as fast as they did has to be a good sign for you guys as the B10 tournament approaches. Good...

Congrats on the big rivalry win at the Barn. It was a fun game to watch. Coach Smith should be able to keep it going with IU coming up this weekend.

I have been following the KFAN kerfuffle both here and on Common & Dan's radio show. It seems like as much as some of you hate KFAN and vow to never listen again, what most of you would really like to see is more non-negative coverage of Golden Gopher football on that station. Or maybe at least...

Best of luck to the Gophers tonight; I will be secretly cheering for your team. That is if hoping your opponent lays a big fat egg and looks completely overmatched constitutes cheering for Minnesota. :confused: I do hope that the Big Ten represents itself well this year during the bowl season...

Golden Gopher fans, Thanks for letting this Hawkeye fan "lurk" or "troll" or whatever you want to call it on your site for yet another year. I enjoy your site and the characters, although sometimes I do miss Loon and Wren; from an outsiders perspective, you have to admit that they were...

For all of the talk about "team identity" on this site, the identityof the team is embodied in Eric Decker. He is without question the leader of the team. The Gophers still might band together and overcome and finish the season with some quality wins. But if they don't, can you really blame...

... that the scariest part of the game might be the entire Gopher team racing over to Wisconsin's bench to be the first to grab the Axe? That mob scene of players (and more than likely "field-rushers", dontchathink?) just might be the most dangerous part of Saturday's game, injury-wise...

Ed Thomas was the coach at Applington-Parkersburg and was one of the most respected football coaches in the state. Four of his former players are currently in the NFL (3 attended Iowa and one UNI). http://sports.espn.go.com/highschool/rise/football/news/story?id=4283443 Please keep his family...

I can't say that I speak for all Hawkeye fans, but I'll be watching and cheering for your team. Heck, I even wore maroon today to show my support. Added a Gus Johnson clip from youtube to help get you in the right mood for today. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkiM3tBJVhk

In a "column" called WhatIfSports.com's most likely Cinderellas, the Gophers are the 4th team talked about. Says that their simulation has Minnesota in the Elite 8 11.9% of the trials. Thought you might be interested...

I think they have a strong enough resume. Premature congratulations and best of luck in the NCAA Tournament. It's that time of year when I become a fan of each and every Big 10 team (and that is not always so easy - the Illini and Buckeyes are especially hard to cheer for :)) in a post-season...

Nice win for your squad last night. I thought (and posted here) that I thought that Iowa would have to play a near perfect game and get a career night from someone to stay in it. Boy, was I wrong. As has been posted, a Big Ten win on the road is like gold, and Tubby and his men found a way to...

Okay, okay, he's a Hawkeye. But he's midwestern (Wheaton, IL), played in the pros (it was the Lions, but still), and has lots of coaching experience. Iowa: Defensive Backs ( 3 yrs under Fry), Quarterbacks/Special Teams (1/Fry and 1/Ferentz) Oklahoma: Quarterbacks (2/Bob Stoops), Offensive...

Okay, so I have to admit I didn't follow Iowa basketball a whole lot last year - well, let's just say less than I normally do. I think you basketball fans probably understand why. :) Anyway, I have caught a couple of Iowa games on BTN so far, and I have to say, I really like Anthony Tucker from...

Remember that in 2004, the Hawkeyes only had 6 yards rushing at the Metrodome. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/boxscore?gameId=243180135
