Be awful nice to improve that to "5"

Yes, we likely beat the Iowegians, but it will not be the cliched cakewalk if we have to play them......

So our path would potentially be Iowa, Purdue, Illinois, then Michigan State?

Um...ouch.

Thursday at the BTT

No matter who the Gophers play on Thursday (if we don't earn the bye), I expect a nail-biter. Michigan, Northwestern, Iowa, Indiana. ... they already have or certainly are very capable of beating us. I really, really don't want to play on Thursday. The only way to avoid Thursday is by winning our next two.
