Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joins host Michael Rand for a look back at the long weekend in sports.
The Gophers football team beat Wisconsin for the second straight season and third time in five years Saturday, prompting a moment of honesty and sensitivity from head coach P.J. Fleck. Did reasonable people really want him fired after the loss to Iowa the previous week? No.
