per Joe:
With an 8-4 regular season in the books, Gophers coach Jerry Kill stood before his players in the losing locker room at Michigan State on Saturday and reminded them about history.
Since 1905, the Gophers have won nine games in a season just once. That was their 10-3 season under Glen Mason in 2003.
As Kill was quick to note, Minnesota’s five national championship teams from the 1930s and 40s only got to play eight games apiece, but his point was that a ninth win would still be pretty meaningful.
“There’s no question — we want to go win a bowl game,” Kill said Sunday of the message he gave his team.
