Odd that our percentage to win out is only 5%....but it's 20% to win the conference. That would suggest that we beat OSU or Michigan (or PSU) in the title game.....but drop a game somewhere else. Not sure about that.....unless of course PSU is the best team in the East.

Gophers looking pretty good statistically for a team that just cracked the lower rungs of the top 25!
