Is there an actual award, trophy or something for being co-champion of the West? Fine either way, I sum up our season this way: "We beat the team that beat Alabama and Oregon".
Good link harley, thanks. I agree with Gophers ranked no 2 in big ten, behind only Ohio State. I know we got beat by the Badgers but beating Auburn outweighs that loss. Iowa game was basically a toss-up, and Iowa beat USC by multiple touchdowns.
I guess our defense is going to be a question mark, at least at first, due to numerous graduations. But
this team we just fielded v Auburn could definitely beat Michigan and possibly Ohio state too.
Wisconsin lost by 1 to Oregon, Iowa topped #24 USC easily, and we beat #12 Auburn convincingly, so I see your point. Overall, the B10 did well, despite Michigan getting pushed around by Alabama.
Vikings have a legit chance, I'll be watching, though more of a Gophers fan.
Re Vegas comments above: give me summertime heat over the East's bone-chilling winter cold. At my age, heat is necessary for me to move about.
