Gophers have a passionate but fairly small fan base which is due to the fact that we've sucked for a long time. For instance this year Wisconsin came to town and the crowd was still 90% MN.  In the past we've had games against Iowa and WI where they've been 30-40% of the stadium.  Pathetic but true.  On the flip side WI had half filled stadiums galore before Alvarez turned the program around. Nebraska always travels well but 20k is a large over exaggeration.  On a national scale like I said we've either sucked or been mediocre for decades so nobody cares.  Respect and attention is earned both in your town and nationally. And honestly I hear you regarding 'profile' comparisons to the 2 but like I said as a CFB fan in the Midwest Cuse doesn't really have a national profile either.  I know of McNabb and Marvin Harrison but I can't really think of any other big time Cuse players nor remember seasons where Cuse was a big deal or a big story nationally other than when Paulus came around.
