Take your seat.

Settle in and listen up.

Gophers 101 is underway and in session.

It's time to go to class and talk all things Gophers.

Thor, I don't often do this, but I'm going to start today's show with a little bit of sourcing.

After some cracked investigative work, working through my sources, a few text messages, even looking at travel plans.

I can confirm the gopher's defense did make it off the field at Wrigley, and they did find their way to the airplane back to the University of Minnesota.

Barely, barely, but they got there.

And Minneapolis.

They did.

They did indeed.

And they're going to need to be markedly better this Saturday when the gophers take on the Wisconsin Badgers.

Thor, I'll tee it up to you this way.

I told Manny on Sunday, I can see a loss coming from 275 miles away.

That is the distance from Camp Randall to Huntington Bank Stadium.

And some of it might just be fear-based.

It might not even be logic-based, which is why I'm glad that you are here.

But recency bias, you have a gopher's defense who couldn't stop you, me, and the rest of the

score north crew.

I think they've literally in the last, what, get well, I guess Dante Moore had three incompletions in the entire game,

and our guy Preston Stone didn't have one incompletion in the second half of his game.

So that terrifies me.
