Indiana has the worlds greatest offense, Wisconsin ranked 25th will get a BCS bowl bid, Ohio State is the greatest team to ever play and proved it against the mighty Purdue, Nebraska is back after their epic win, Michigan State is undefeated and is going to give OSU a challenge in the BIG championship, Iowa is up and coming look out they are 5-4 now, oh yea Minnesota won third straight BIG game, yawn.

And Ryan Santoso was tripped up before getting a first down on a fake punt ;)

Ohio State is top five in the country and has not lost since 2011. Nebraska won on a Hail Mary. Michigan State-Michigan is one of the biggest rivalries in the league and featured two ranked teams. Wisconsin is ranked and very much alive for a BCS at-large.

I agree, they shouldve spent 55 of the 60 minutes on the 3-2 Gophers and 1-3 Hoosiers.

If this fanbase isnt complaining, it must not be breathing.
 

Why would sconnie get a BCS game-have they beat a bowl eligble team yet?

Haha, I caught that. At least look at the player's position before being sure you are right with the name. Stuff like that really bugs me.

I don't think anyone thinks it should be 55. But at least 5 minutes would be nice. I don't think they even got that much. They showed the highlights and that is it. No discussion on the game.

Yes, an hour show that is meant to recap 6 games should spend more than a two minute highlight clip to cover one of the games, especially with the way the Gophers are playing. If both teams were 1-3 in conference I could understand it, but Minnesota now has a winning record in B1G play. It is what it is I guess.

Ok, Captain Hyperbole... Might there be a happy medium in there somewhere? The Gophers recent play deserves a bit more balanced coverage than what BTN is giving us.

I heard it but thought he was talking to the other guy in the studio. I don't watch BTN all that much but thought there was a guy with the same last name.

I was reading gopherhole at the time and could be wrong.
 




Even in the post game analysis (after the highlights when they analyze what happened) all they did was talk about Michigan State winning our division. Annoying.
 





You think it's bad now .... wait until we have two more east coast teams. At that point, BTN should split into an east and a west network.

Yeah that was a pretty piss-poor recap. They showed zero highlights from the first half, then, when they normally talk more in-depth about the game, they spent the entire few minutes talking about Michigan State.

Good thing they added another few standard interviews with various coaches and players (none from Minn or Indiana, though); as everyone loves game speak.
