Per Dan:

“But what I do remember is there was a real rivalry, and when I got here in ’81 there was. I was kind of naïve to it until they came across the field after the 12-10 win out there in 1981, and I thought, boy, they’re pretty enthusiastic about shaking hands, and then I realized they wanted to come get the trophy that was right behind us,” Ferentz said.

“That was my introduction to the trophy game, and once you’re here for a little bit, you figure it out real quickly and what it means. I think this particular one there’s a real deep history, certainly. So, yeah, we’ll do that, give the guys a chance.”


Go Gophers!!
