per Greder:
Instead of fighting the pink motif in the visiting locker room at Iowa’s Kinnick Stadium, P.J. Fleck has embraced it ahead of Saturday’s rivalry game against the Hawkeyes. As of Tuesday morning, the Gophers adopted the color scheme in the locker room at their practice facility.
“Pink banners, pink everything,” said Minnesota cornerback Kunle Ayinde.
While the Hawkeyes are known for the attempt to pacify opponents with the color, the Gophers (4-3, 1-3 Big Ten) want to acclimate themselves to those surroundings before they face Iowa (4-3, 1-3) in the battle for the Floyd of Rosedale at 5:30 p.m. Saturday in Iowa City.
Former Iowa coach Hayden Fry, who held a Masters degree in psychology, made the color switch in 1979. It has endured.
