It takes Pat 12 paragraphs to get to his thesis:
On Tuesday night, the Gophers — representing a campus with 30,550 undergraduates — were playing a men's basketball game vs. Indiana University/Purdue University Indianapolis, with the initials of IUPUI and the nickname "Oooey-Pooey."
There were a few thousand ticket holders anticipated to be in attendance.
Meantime, the men's team from St. Thomas, the Catholic research university located four miles from Williams Arena, was practicing in preparation for a game Thursday at Marquette.
Go Gophers!!

Foolish for Gophers to keep avoiding St. Thomas hoops rivalry
There's plenty of entertaining crosstown and cross-state college basketball rivalries across the country. It would be foolish for the Gophers to continue avoiding the Tommies.
