Wisc @ Gophers, A Formality to Finality

Post by Irishmans Shanty »

With two burrowing members of the animal kingdom going at it today, I figured it would be fitting to consult a 3rd party, neutral ground based rodent for a prediction.

Tough to argue with Phil, he's a legend in his predictions.

I'm hoping For updates Shanty, but if it gets too painful to watch I'll understand.

Well Neutron I will do my best to keep you and any other guests abreast of the action at the Camp Randalldome this afternoon.

I am planning on hanging a few lights for the impending season that is soon upon us. If the game does seem to be in the balance and the updates end abruptly, it means I have most likely fallen to my death or at very least been rushed to a hospital.

Today's tilt can be found on channel 218 or 440 of your respective satellite system, as for you Comcast subsribers, let's just say it has been a good season to be held hostage by big business and greed.

Regardless of the outcome, I'm sure it will turn out better than his effort last year:

WIS, winners of 10/12 in the series took the opening drive and pick up a chip shot field goal.

Key drops by the recievers keep them out of the endzone.

WIS 3
MIN 0

4 strands are hung. Many to go.

Weber is running wild.

Gophers 1st and ten just inside the WIS 30. Opps false start, back 'em up five. Is this where they break down?

First play after the ensuing kickoff, the Gophers picked off a pass in the Wisconsin end and cash in with another 3.

13-3.

TD Wisc. They sure made that look easy.

The Wisc QB came into this game with 196yds rushing on the season, I think he's doubled that output today.

WISC 10
MIN 13

Geez Brewster, call a darn play like you want to drive the field.

You're doing everything within your power to go into halftime behind.
