Greetings from TCF Bank Stadium, where the Gophers are getting ready for their annual Spring Game.
The weather has shaped up pretty well, with temperatures expected to be about 60 degrees, with mostly cloudy skies for today's start at about 2:30 p.m.
The game -- which will actually be a scrimmage between the offense and defense -- will be aired live on 100.3-FM, and streamed live on BTN2GO.com. Big Ten Network will show the game tape delayed on Sunday at 5:30 p.m.
I'm most curious how Mitch Leidner and the first-team offense look, of course. But the Spring Game is really an opportunity to see how some of the lesser-experienced players look under the spotlight.
It's a big day for some of the redshirt freshmen, such as QB Chris Streveler, QB Conor Rhoda, TE Nate Wozniak, WR Eric Carter, LB Rayfield Dixon and S Daletavious McGhee. And, of course, RB Berkley Edwards, whom I wrote about for today's paper.
The Gophers didn't release a depth chart for this game, but I put one together, based on what I've seen in spring practice:
OFFENSE
WR 82 Drew Wolitarsky (So.)/17 Logan Hutton (Sr.)
