My line is rhetorical as in you can have enough pride to not accept the Woolworth Bowl - or just a dig from me at Gophers state of affairs.

The ideal scenario would be to knock Wisconsin out of a bowl that could happen if Wisconsin doesn't beat Nebraska. What a change of affairs for Badgers if "the new TCU destined for championship game" didn't even make a bowl.

Game of the year is Wisconsin-Nebraska.

And no Minnesota should not accept Canada Baseball Field Embarrass Bowl.

No we are not. Look at the 4-6 and 5-5 teams and who they play.

We actually do not make a bowl at 5-7 unless some crazy upsets happen.

Well this is a bowl projections thread. Not a what you think should happen thread.

I thought you were saying what you thought would happen. Not what you thought should happen. My mistake

Even if it sucks for fans, the Gophers should play in a crappy bowl game. The practices and culture building for the young guys is HUGE.

I have a crazy question about a crazy scenario:

what if every single West team other than Purdue and Iowa gets to 6-6?

We know will be in a bowl: Mich, OSU, Penn St, Maryland, Rutgers, Iowa

Now add in five more West teams at 6-6. That's eleven teams. I know the Big Ten doesn't have that many bowl tie-ins ....


I'm guessing some weird bowl that normally never gets a Big Ten team would leap at the opportunity. But still, amazing that it's even on the table.
