Brian Bennett: Minnesota wins 8 games in 2013 and beats either UW or Penn State

[BleedGopher]

per Bennett:

2. Minnesota, Michigan State are most improved teams: Jerry Kill's teams have typically made big jumps in his third year, and the same happens with the Gophers in 2013. They showed a glimpse of the type of power running team they could be in the Meineke Car Care Bowl of Texas loss to Texas Tech, and some receivers emerge to give young quarterback Philip Nelson some options. Minnesota surprises either Wisconsin or Penn State at home and wins eight games. Michigan State left itself a lot of room for improvement by going only 7-6 in 2012. The Spartans benefit from a much easier schedule in '13, more experience at wide receiver and better health on the offensive line to also win at least eight games. The progress by both Minnesota and Michigan State make the Legends Division one of the most rugged divisions in college football.

I couldn't agree with you more. I just don't understand why people haven't recognized this before.

Now that is correct, Killjoy. I have always wondered why some people will correctly say "I couldn't agree more", but still say "I could care less".

Thanks Dr.Don - I wasn't quite sure how to respond to the post but you captured it better than I did. For a moment I thought about saying it was less filling.

Bennett knows his football.

That is what we were hoping for when we hired Kill. Lets hope this guy is right. I like it when at least one person out there writing about cfb gives me hope to think things will get better.
