So will the Gophers sweep another series at the Badddgers?

Aloha!

@the-rube called a possible let down this past weekend vs. MSU on Wednesday night’s podcast. Which the Gophers pretty much dominated the play for 5 of 6 periods for the weekend. On paper this weekend @ wisconSIN has sweep… but if there’s a trap weekend for the Gophers this year. It’s this weekend. My heart says sweep, my brain says split. Lose Friday and win big on Saturday. Would really like to be proven wrong. 

Keep your stick on the ice...

No matter how bad the Badgers are at times recently, they always seem to win at least one game against us. I’d like to see the Gophers get the clean sweep on the season and really get rolling down the final stretch.

I'm not seeing the red team getting a sniff.  

With no games next weekend MN will be so sick of practicing & scrimmaging against each other they will anxious to take out some frustration against the pukes.

People on here tried to be nervous the last time we played Wisconsin.  This isn’t a trap series.  Wisconsin is bad and the Gophers will whip their asses just like they did in December.

The Badgers don’t have the talent nor do they even match up well against the Gophers.  The Gophers will have plenty of motivation for Wisconsin.

Enjoy the show.  Seriously, buy tickets and drive to Madison.  It’s a great time!

Coming off a bye weekend they’ll be a hungry team. Not to mention potential to win some hardware too. 

Two wins. One of them ugly.

@maroon_and_gold Define ugly. Ugly as in Friday night vs Sparty ugly, or ugly as in we play like bantams for two periods and overcome a 3-1 deficit in the 3rd to win 4-3 on a buzzer beater?

I rarely expect a road conference sweep and perhaps this will bite me in the arse, but I expect the Gophers to handle UW this weekend.  Perhaps not by 4 goals both nights but outside of UW getting an early lucky goal the Gophers are going to dominate.

Wisconsin will play us tough but I feel like we sweep. Friday will be a 5-3 frustrating win and Saturday will be a 6-1 cake walk.

If we were playing this weekend I might be more inclined to say split but they’re coming off a bye week so they’ll be hungry and focused up.

With the new rankings, I'm going split.  #1 team always seems to trip up for some reason.  Really liked that #2 spot in the polls.

Should sweep, road series vs. rival with #1 curse says split.

There's no guarantee that we'll still be #1 in the polls next week.  I stopped paying much attentions to polls awhile back, but as a man of superstitions, I can respect your concern about a curse.  I guess we should hope Quinnipiac or BU have a dominant weekend during our bye.

I saw one fan at Saturday's MSU game dressed in red crap. 

From what I've seen on TV when that team is on the B1G Network red fans will probably experience the same ratio of MN:wi fans at the bad store arena in two weeks.

If it was the same person, I saw him as well. And probably was, cause he was standing in the concourse right above your section. And he was totally decked out in wisconSIN crap. Head to toe. Also saw your token UND fan at a Gopher game.

I think Gold would pop the best. Maroon may blend in with the red too much.

And really, will this work?  We tried a gold out at Mariucci and it was awful.  All you saw were maroon seats.

I thought the stripe out for gopher football worked pretty well last fall. Not perfect but pretty good.

It did for football, it did not work for hockey this season and we’re a good team.  Curious if people will show for the WI game.

A fair amount of tickets have been sold for this game.  Please wear gold if possible as the maroon can blend in with red.

 

My fat arse will stick out in my gold sweatshirt 7 rows behind the Gopher bench.

 

Do you think they will tell fans which sections are red vs white?  Our just leave it up to them to figure it out?

It’s official. If we take care of business in Madison and sweep we’ll be hoisting a trophy by the end of the weekend. If Ohio State/Michigan lose tomorrow we’ll be playing for the championship Friday.

It is on Ballys Sports + or extra ( whatever they call it now )

BTW, Bally's has BSN, BSN+, BSN2 available to show games. Wolves are on BSN, and Gophers mens/womens hockey will be on either + or 2. 

 

I'm 50% factual and 50% sarcastic. When you get to know me, you will know which is which.

If you get BSN on whatever service you get TV on, BSN+ and BSN2 is usually one channel up or down from that. BSN+ is not like BTN+, which is the streaming version of BTN.  

Also, on the BADgers Hockey schedule page it shows the game on Ballys Sports Wisconsin Extra, which is the additional channel for Wisconsin sports ( similar to BSN Extra in the Cities). That leads me to believe that the game will be shown on BSN2 in the Minnesota market. My guide has TBA for BSN2, but it is not unusual for the guide not to update the extra channels until later in the week. It is weird that the Gophers schedule on Gophersports has "+" and not extra, but who knows.

For example for me on DirecTV--

BSN-- 668 (Ballys)

BSN extra -- 668-1

BSN2-- 669-2

BTN-- 610 ( B1G Network )

BTN+ -- streaming

That is what I am seeing too. It didn't even occur to me that I wouldn't have the game on Friday.  

I am on Comcast and there isn't a BSN2. It shows it scheduled on BTN+. Very bad app but that seems to be my way to watch the game.

Xfinity just gets BSN and BSN+. Never seen a BSN2. So I believe I would have to buy some Bally Sports package to watch.

@maroon_and_gold 

I hope you won't have to either.  This should be the last TV issues we will have until the NCAA's, where we could have to get ESPN+ for a game.

The difficult part about this is that DirecTV no longer loads the STB guide more than a few days out and guide on the app/website either don't show BSN2 and BSWI Extra or don't have it populated yet.  They should by Wednesday though.  I wait until that day to set my PVR just to be 100% sure.

I'm guessing it will be in 669-1 for DirecTV (Bally Sports Wisconsin takes the lead when the games are in Madison).

Though I'd rather listen to radio than stream, it might be useful to know if games exclusive to BSN+ streaming are accessible to anyone who gets BSN through cable/satellite.
