When people call this a Superbowl, they mean it figuratively. In terms of excitement among casual fans this is as big as it really gets for us with the possible exception of the championship game.
That is what superbowl means to me, hype and enthusiasm among casual fans.
Beating Kansas last year was a big reason we got into the playoffs. Beating a FBS school will be huge come playoff time as far as getting in and seeding goes. This game is big not because it is Minnesota, but also because it is an FBS team (and a little because its MN). Otherwise I agree that conference games are more important especially UNI.
Not a super bowl. Its a regular season game with a playoff atmosphere. We, unlike the Gophers, have realistic dreams of winning the conference and making a run to win the national championship.

I wish the media would quit calling this a rivalry. That makes the casual fan even more confused.
