In this week's edition of the PodKaz, hosts Nicole Haase and Todd Milewski look back on another week with unexpected results and wonder whether that's just the norm now in NCAA women's hockey.No. 7 Northeastern handed No. 4 Penn State its first loss of the season before the Nittany Lions earned a split of the nonconference series.No. 2 Ohio State ran all over No. 10 Clarkson and No. 12 Colgate at the D1 in DC event, while No. 8 UConn beat No. 9 Quinnipiac and Yale with late goals to win the Nutmeg Classic. No. 1 Wisconsin tied an NCAA record for goals in a 17-2 victory over Stonehill at the Smashville Showcase.That leads into the first meeting this season between the nation's top two teams. The Badgers play at the Buckeyes on Friday and Saturday, and they're the only regular-season meetings between the teams when they have their full rosters available; the return series is during the Olympics.And we conclude with a recap of Nicole's appearance on the Thanksgiving episode of "Jeopardy!"The PodKaz is a production of USCHO.com.

Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse and host Michael Rand look back at the weekend in sports, starting with another inept performance by the Vikings.

Plus the Gophers beat Wisconsin for the fourth time in five years, the Wolves beat a couple quality teams and more.

Wisconsin fans just suffered one of the toughest weekends in recent memory. The Badgers closed the football season with a brutal loss to Minnesota in the Axe Game — a performance defined by stalled offense, missed opportunities, and more questions about the program's direction under Luke Fickell. And on Friday, the basketball team led off with a frustrating letdown against TCU, raising real concerns about consistency, shot creation, and defensive identity.Tonight, Rajeev and Justin break down what went wrong in Minneapolis and what this loss says about the state of the program. We'll also dig into the TCU loss, what it exposed about this Badger basketball roster, and whether this team can steady itself heading into conference play.If you're frustrated, confused, or just looking for answers — this is the show.Help The Bucky Report get some feedback!
