They should stick to politics:
The Golden Gophers were a surprise team last season, making their first bowl appearance since 2009 and narrowly losing to Texas Tech. Minnesota returns ten offensive starters including sophomore Philip Nelson (873 yards) who will have the reigns of the offense without looking over his shoulder after splitting time last season. However, he will have some help with junior running back Donnell Kirkwood (926 yards) and three of his top four receivers returning. Defensively, senior linebacker Aaron Hill (74 tackles, 1 sack, 3 TFLs and 2 interceptions) leads the way for the Golden Gophers.
Prediction: Last year, Minnesota won two conference games, but it is hard to see them pulling that feat off once again. The 11/2 game at Indiana oculd be close, but there best chance to pull a win is Week 5 against Iowa. Their first three non-conference games should be wins for Minnesota, but San Jose State will likely be too much to overcome. I believe this is a four win team.
