Naturally things could change, but I find it interesting that the Gophers only play 3 games yet this year vs. top 25 teams. Wisc twice and Indiana once. Obviously MSU, Maryland, etc. could get into the top 25, but just looking at things as of now.
Yeah it really seems like the conference has no great teams but a whole bunch of decent ones. Northwestern was receiving votes at the start of this week and might actually make the tournament finally, and Nebraska, Rutgers, and Penn State don't seem like total pushovers. I'm still questioning whether Nebraska is a mirage or not.
