        I can't believe that Sertich would say something like that.  Are these
comments just rumors or are they from a reliable source?  I know that
during the course of the game Sertich was yelling at his team, "look at
this tradition, do you see the tradition hear!"  I interpreted this to
mean that if the bulldogs can build a tradition by beating teams like the
Gophers.
        Sertich is a class act, and knows that a comment like the one
you stated could get the Gophers really fired up.  I just can't see him
saying something so stupid.
