Wondering how many and exactly who AZ State will be missing this evening. Last I saw there were 5 or 6 who would likely miss it (Dhooghe plus Covid). Any other key guys? (And I know, we SHOULD win regardless) Their stud freshman and the leading scorer in the country Kopperrud is out. That plus two ...

They will be short it sounds.

According to her Instagram Any Potomak will be back in the lineup today.

If its on FSWisconsin then its on FSN or the plus for us.

Im just loving the irony of fans bitching on the gophers facebook page that its stupid these games are on FSN and why arent all their games on BTN now...

Maybe replacing Chorske? Didn’t he take a hockey job for that St. Cloud Jr team or something?

Chorske confirmed he was out but it was FSN who didnt renew his contract, not that he quit.

Our neighbor girl says she's going to SCSU to become a TV meteorologist. She says it's less schooling than to be a non-tv meteorologist. That was a new one to me. Basicially its more a broadcasting degree less a meteorology degree. I know of several people who got that degree first and then got an ...

Guess no one else has been on twitter this morning.

Boltmann to Notre Dame

It would be cool if a Mariucci classic is on the schedule. MN, NoDak, St Cloud and UMD. Maybe in a few years, but the Gophers will play strictly a B1G & Arizona St schedule this year. Plus, I would rather have that kind of a Mariucci Classic when I and others could attend. Plus the NCHC already has...

Is MN a lock for a bowl game? Are Lower bowl games happening this year....music city...etc?

No and some.

Just call it off already, https://twitter.com/chrismpeters/status/1336298155172798467 I'm not wishing Covid on anyone, but this might be a blessing in disguise if some get it now and they have to shut it down. The schedule was to start on Dec. 25? IIRC. Canadian Covid policy has only essential cros...

Yep. Going to be a weird series with 8 top players out between the two teams.

One would assume that Bob knew he wouldn't be playing hockey for a while if Ratzlaff was truthful. He said in the below article with the Pioneer Press he knew he would be quitting hockey before his senior year of football.

He Gone

We may be down 3 too...

Is Ratzlaff officially out, or are we assuming he plays football? FWIW, I am of that assumption.

Not officially but I think there is a steep trend line towards that.

At this point chances are greater he's playing for PJ than Bob. But probably even greater he's WI bound.

The Wisconsin at Ohio State games this weekend are on the BTN+ schedule. That's a hopeful sign the Gopher games in Columbus will be as well

They will be. All games hosted by a Big Ten school will be on BTN+

Motzko said in the radio pregame that 'they'll get Stucker back eventually.' UMN officially just say he's unavailable. Can’t say I’m itching to see Stucker back in the lineup, particularly given the quality of blue line play so far. I would be shocked if Stucker is anything other than the seventh o...

Are they not naming names? Not necessarily Covid-related but just those who will miss Saturday's game for whatever reason? Wondering how many starters will be out, especially QB, RB and WR. :conf2: Other than the ones who we know who have tested positive, none of which who are in those three positi...

Are they really playing vs Michigan at Munn or is that a typo in the schedule?

typo

Who's left, just Hemp? Also Sadie Lindsay. I’ve been hoping the delay in an official announcement might be because of a surprise late addition. I’m going off some flimsy evidence though so it’s probably a long shot. Lindsay signed the same time as Zumwinkle https://twitter.com/BreckAthletics/status...

sounds like youth sports shutdown will be announced Wednesday

Sounds like an announcement at 6:30 tonight that the Ivy league is going to cancel all winter sports including hockey.

Cornell would be the school the most affected on both the men's and women's side.

Apparently Christmas music season on Kool 108 has come early this year.

Two weeks when they have a quick turn around from Friday to Tuesday for games. That will be a little more challenging. As long as the other teams in the league have are equally challenged... For the most part they are. For example Penn State has it even worse going from the Friday game against us t...

Will be curious about the TV broadcast schedule and who is airing the games. Will BTN have conflicts with hoops thus sending more games to FSN which is not available on a lot of streaming services? Or will they be televised at all if scheduled during the day. I don't understand why they are doing m...

Already saw someone complaining on Twitter about how there are weekday games and how it's the Big Ten's fault. As if it's impossible for him to wrap his tiny brain around the fact that there is a global pandemic going on and that's why the schedule is so weird. I for one am just happy we're getting...

Schlossman was all over the Yale thing.

KDWB morning sidekick Steve-O and the Cities 97 morning guy both got the axe from Clear Channel yesterday.

The problem of this joke is if you looked at the zoomed out photo the car with the snowmobile has MN plates.... Though at least it's a WI resident who still has MN plates "As for the Minnesota plates on his car, Schmit explained that he bought the vehicle as "my beater car" last spring in the Twin C...

This is gonna be a cluster...

Obviously Jess and Vegoe arent talking to the same people

What Vegoe said. This year literally doesnt count for eligibility for anyone. Whatever class players are now they will be next fall. But there will still be scholarship limits down the line to deal with.

Does anyone know what Fa'alele's injury is? It sounds like he was injured in the Wisconsin game last year and still is not back to playing. That is a long time to be out and for an important cog I am surprised I haven't heard what the injury is or know when they expect him to return. Seems odd.. He...

:chainsaw: I still have BTN on YouTubeTV, so I assume any Gopher Hockey game picked up by BTN, I will be able to watch? Yup, but don't expect that to be all that many games even during the pandemic since the BTN doesn't love hockey (since not many people watch it). I think you will see a lot more ga...

I have a feeling of impending doom. Every year the neighborhood gets their sprinklers blown out as a group. We are scheduled for Saturday. How the hell is that going to work when there is 6 inches of snow on the ground and the temp is 18 degrees? Last time I let someone else schedule sprinkler blow...

NCHC splitting into Divisions for this season. East: Western, Miami, UMD, SCSU West: UND, Denver, Cc, Omaha. Teams will play crossover games over 3 weeks at an Omaha bubble=hub beginning Dec 1. Jan-March will play home and away series vs Divisional opponents. https://twitter.com/TheNCHC/status/13171...

Question: With the NCAA's decree that players on last year's roster will be given an extra year of eligibility, and with incoming recruited freshmen adding to this year's expanded roster, how will Coach Frost best handle the upcoming season's swollen number of players? Does he give preference to la...

UND hosts regionals in ND in 2023 and 2025 with SD having regionals (hosted by UNO instead of UMN or UND) in 2024 and 2026. Absolutely an advantage for them and frustrating that UMN isn't getting regionals when almost all of the Gophers NCAA success has been in MN over the last five to ten years. P...

Is Ratzlaff committed to WI for football? Or that is what the heavy lean thoughts are? It's between Minnesota and Wisconsin. He has done a few interviews with Badger 247 and has been pretty positive about them, but then also says nice things about Fleck and the Gophers. I think Minnesota still defi...

Powers did say yesterday in return for playing 28 road games this year he got a guarantee for at least one home series with each big ten school in the near future.

So one warm weather non con series for sure coming.

Not feeling great about Ratzlaff being a hockey commit in the next month or so anymorr

Just to bring down the excitement...sounds like dont expect your usual 7 PM Friday and Saturday face offs. With no fans to worry about sounds like the schedule will be hugely TV driven. Get ready for wednesday/Thursday series, games at noon etc. https://twitter.com/ToddMilewski/status/1313584079342...

For Fall sports they are ending all post season at the section level--no state tournaments. Will be interesting to see what they do for the winter ones. They are enforcing the no crowds at games on school owned properties, and up to 250 outside. Would assume you could have up to 250 at non school ow...

Not great for any hopes of keeping Ratzlaff committed to hockey.

Looks like someone threw a party last weekend they shouldn't have,

I assume someone would have the stats by year and I would be curious

It's definitely the most in a while. Having four out of 5 rookies on active rosters (if you count Kamal before he was put on IR) and the fifth on a practice squad helps.

Sounds like personal issues if you read the pay sites. Hasnt been in MN for a while

Ouch.

What’s the importance of having NCAA sports teams? Drop the sports and focus on educating. While you are correct on what should be a colleges focus.....how much less fun would our time at the U have been without sports? I don’t think it’s quite the same experience in Fairbanks. If having a sports t...

Ratzlaf talked to Wisconsin's 247 page again and basically reconfirmed he will wait and see where he is drafted in the NHL draft and then decide between hockey and football, but while he says it's tied for football it sure seems like he will be Badger bound if football is the choice. So hope he gets...

I never listened to AM1500 or Skor North very much.... But I just went over to check it out and realized that they are down to 1 hour of local programming a day now. The rest appears to be all national. Is this right? One hour a day? YIKES!!! I don't even think the hour is live. I think it's just t...

Pohlads aren't cutting costs at the park....but at their radio stations---another story.

Jess Myers had mentioned it in his tweets before. He seems to be the best source for schedule tidbits at the moment.

Not sure if anyone is a French Meadow Bakery fan....but I'd think hard about it if I was after reading the linked post in this tweet. Oof.

The 508 bar in Minneapolis is closing as is Bellecour in Wayzata.

508 is a big Badger Bar if you want to find any small iota of positivity in a restaurant closing.

The eastern trip is cancelled and we head to Bemidji for 1 thanksgiving weekend.

Maybe.

All the former WCHA truthers are gonna be so excited when those are the only games that get played and then sooo pissed when fans wont be allowed.

No internal damage to the foot. So thats good. Just a sprain hopefully.

I think you will see a ton of local teams try to go as regional as possible. Just saw Northern Michigan dropped a series with BU and added UMD. As Jess Meyers alluded to a while back I think the U is trying to get out of any potential series out of the Big Ten where a flight was needed and will try ...

Are athletes like Ranta and LaFontaine on these kind of visas? https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/06/politics/international-college-students-ice-online-learning/index.html As I understand it, Minnesota isn't going to online only classes, so it's a moot point.
