This week in Minnesota talk
The shows spent the week on Minnesota's rivalry stretch, starting with Iowa coming in as a road favorite in the Floyd of Rosedale game. Minnesota ended up winning that one, and the talk since then has bounced between looking ahead to Indiana and getting bold about the upcoming UCLA matchup. The hosts have generally liked what they're seeing from the Gophers in these kinds of games, though some worry about their offensive limitations against better defenses.
