This Wolverines Gameday in History Goes Trick 'r Treating in Minneapolis

Coming into Saturday, question marks for both squads surround the (generally) annual contest between Michigan and Minnesota. How will the Gophers perform following the sudden departure of beloved coach Jerry Kill? How will Michigan respond to arguably the most soul-crushing loss in program history? These storylines carry importance for the near-future, and therefore, they have slightly overshadowed the historic significance of Saturday's game. When toe meets leather tomorrow evening, the 112th anniversary of the Little Brown Jug will begin as both teams aim to gain a critical notch in their respective 2015 belts. The game also marks the fourth time both teams have squared off on All Hallows' Eve, with all meetings taking place in Minnesota.
