The Minnesota Gophers will face off against the Boston University Terriers in the first NCAA Frozen Four Semifinal Thursday afternoon in Tampa. It will be the fifth time that the Gophers and BU have faced off in the NCAA semifinals and the ninth time the two teams will have faced off in the NCAA Tournament. These two teams have some of the most stories history against one another, and will look to add another chapter to that lore on Thursday. Lets take a quick look at the NCAA Tournament games between these two teams.
