per Chad:
After the game, Fleck found positives in all the accomplishments of this season, the “nevers, firsts, restorations,” as he said. They got longtime fans hardened by years of heartache to believe again, and that’s a good thing, he noted. They won 10 games and are likely headed for a New Year’s Day bowl, both things to be proud of.
But none of it changed the reality of what occurred on the frozen field at TCF Bank Stadium. With a chance to head to the Big Ten championship game for the first time and perhaps on to the Rose Bowl or better, the Gophers were outcoached, outplayed and watched a 9-0 start to the season be spoiled thanks to losses to their two most bitter rivals.

With a dream end in sight, P.J. Fleck and the Gophers stumble into a nightmare
With a monumental achievement within reach, the Gophers were outcoached and outplayed Saturday against the Badgers.
