Northwestern Football delivered one of the most dramatic wins of its season. The team stormed back for a 38–35 victory over the Minnesota Golden Gophers at Wrig

The Badgers close the regular season Saturday, Nov. 29 against Minnesota in a battle for Paul Bunyan's Axe. Here is what to know about the Gophers.

It has been a different story for Minnesota. The Gophers needed overtime to beat Michigan State at home, which is one of the Big Ten's two winless teams in conference play. They proceeded to get blown out by Oregon on the road and give up 38 points to Northwestern the following week. Recent trends would give the Badgers an advantage on Saturday.

It’s been a tough season for both teams, but winning the Paul Bunyan Axe would make everything better. Here’s the CFN Wisconsin vs Minnesota preview and prediction.

The Minnesota football program’s injury report was released two hours before kickoff on Saturday morning, and the Golden Gophers will be without two key starters against the Wildcats. Out for the Gophers on Saturday include linebacker Devon Williams and cornerback John Nestor.
