OK, where does everyone see the Gophers playing?
It would be nice to be playing in the championship series. The Gophers would have to win out, beating Ohio St. in the Big Ten championship.
That just might be too much to hope for but we will just have to take it one game at a time and see how that one plays out.
Rose Bowl - possible - Ohio St would have to win out and go in the Bowl Championship Series. The Gophers would have to win the West and probably have to beat Penn St. to pull it off. If we can get past Penn St the Wisconsin game would probably be for the Rose Bowl on the line.
Citrus Bowl - Agreement is for 5 Big Ten teams in 6 years so if possible no Penn St. Minnesota or Michigan.
Outback Bowl - Agreement is for 5 Big Ten teams in 6 years so if possible no Wisconsin, Michigan or Northwestern if possible.
If the Gophers continue their success -- this would be our most likely destination. We would probably need to be at least 10-2.
Holiday Bowl - Agreement is for 5 Big Ten schools in 6 years so if possible no Michigan St, Minnesota, Nebraska, Wisconsin, or Northwestern.
Tax Slayer Bowl - No Iowa or Penn St. if possible. This is where we would could end up if we go 1-3 these 4 games and end up 9-3.
Pinstripe Bowl - If the Gophers go 8-4, this might be where we end up.
Remember - we are up against some pretty good teams in the Big Ten. Ohio St will most likely end up in the BCS and that is good because it bumps everyone up one bowl. Penn St, Wisconsin, Michigan and Iowa are all in the mix with us and are all viable choices over us if the end of the year has some slip ups. I do not think anyone else would even be in the discussion over us even if disaster struck and we went 0-4.
My guess is the Outback Bowl -- but that Rose Bowl would be sooooooooo nice!!!
