The battle for Paul Bunyan’s Axe officially has a game time as Wisconsin and Minnesota will kickoff at 2:30 on November 30th inside TCF Bank Stadium as the game can be seen on ABC.
Minnesota beat Wisconsin a season ago for the first time in 14 years to take the axe back to Minneapolis.
If both teams win this coming Saturday as Minnesota travels to Northwestern and Wisconsin hosts Purdue the winner between the Badgers and Gophers will clinch the Big Ten West division and earn the right to go to Indianapolis.
Wisconsin was able to receive help in possibly getting back to the Big Ten championship game when Minnesota lost to Iowa this past weekend.
Minnesota is looking to get to the Big Ten championship game in Indianapolis for the first time in program history while the Badgers will look to return to Indianapolis for the sixth time. Wisconsin is 2-3 all-time in Big Ten conference championship games.
