per Chip:
The world is facing far more important matters than a football game being canceled, but of all the games to be affected, it had to be this one?
This cuts deep. For players, for coaches and for fans.
Fans such as Mumm, who was born in Minneapolis, then moved to Madison at age 7 until graduation, but never lost his allegiance to Minnesota sports.
Fans such as Erik Peterson, a pharmacist who holds two degrees from the U and has a "great affinity for the rivalry," which means he maintains a healthy dose of disdain for the other side.
Peterson does not own a single clothing item that is red. Shopping at Target is troublesome because of red carts. And he would never be caught driving a red car.
"You can correlate my dislike of red back to the Badgers," he said.

He was going to Gophers/Wisconsin game from Singapore. Then, 2020 happened.
Fans feel void without 130th edition of Gophers-Badgers this weekend.
