You do know the Twin Cities arenโt that much more north than Madison right? ๐ Would you like it better if I referred to them as merely 'out there'. That is if you don't like geographical references. ๐ค MSP latitude: 44.9 Madison latitude: 43.07 It's north, and halfway to the North Pole

MN had an emotionally high performance against WI a month ago. Three days later they were unable to muster that mojo against an outperforming Northwestern and lost 3-2
Will WI be able to recharge from last night's endorphin flush? I expect MN will relish the underdog role and play with heart.
If MN plays above their 'mean' and WI still prevails I will be plenty satisfied. We had a year with SSS where MN peaked too soon.
MN is on an upward trajectory and I'll continue to hope for incremental gains. They showed signs, for the first time this season, the capacity for a suffocating defense.
p.s. it will be just fine if Franklin returns from the stratosphere.

That is if you don't like geographical references. ๐ค I'm fine with geographical references but it came across, to me, like we're so much farther north than you guys. We're neighboring States that are practically side by side. Up north makes it seem like we're in Canada. It's roughly a four-hour drive away. Those northern rodents, maybe? Nah, don't like that either.

That's starting to sound like "real Wisconsin starts above Hwy 29," except the opposite.
So you are making the Northwoods folks upset. ๐

This is gonna be a rough week for me. My standards are low for the week. Win a set. I have a little more optimism for this match though, but no result would surprise. And now that your team has won three times your expectations for the week, are you going to be greedy or are you going to share?

Since I predicted a Husker sweep and the reverse happened I'm going with the Gophers in 3. ๐

The Milwaukee Journal has done articles on "where does 'up north' start?" a couple times. And the best answer I saw posted in the comments was "fifty miles north of where you live now". (Minneapolis is easily 100 mile north of Madison, BTW)

You know it's a rivalry when the fanbases are arguing over latitudes.

If youโre surrounded by farms youโre south, if youโre surrounded by trees youโre north ๐
