The exact game time is still up in the air, but the ACC-Big Ten Challenge TV schedule is out. You should be able to watch too. The barriers to seeing the Gophers have continued to fall this offseason. At about this time last year we learned that the Big Ten Network would be available by [...]

Gophers will play at Miami in the 2009 ACC-Big Ten Challenge
Posted on 22. Apr, 2009 by JF.
So much for a big game in The Barn. At first glance this should be winnable for the Gophers. Miami will be without face-slapper extraordinaire Jack McClinton, and Miami basketball fans are notorious for arriving late or not at all.

Posted on 15. Apr, 2008 by JF.
Virginia finished a disappointing season with a 17-16 overall record. Like most years, they started out hot, rising to a #23 ranking in the first month of the season, until their inevitable implosion.

The Gophers face Florida State tomorrow night in the ACC-Big 1o Challenge, in what will be a key game for two possible bubble teams. While many will focus on Big 10 losing streak in these challenges, and apologists for both sides will defend their conference to the death, I am just happy that this marks [...]
