per Sid:
Thursday, when the Gophers meet Missouri in the Citrus Bowl, it might be the biggest game of Jerry Kill’s four years as coach of the Maroon and Gold.
The prestige Kill and his football team will receive if they can beat Missouri — which, strange as it might seem, lost at home to a 4-8 Indiana team and then gave No. 1-rated Alabama a battle in the SEC Championship Game for three quarters before losing 42-13 — would be a big boon to the program, especially in recruiting.
The game on ABC will likely have a much bigger television audience than any previous Gophers bowl games under Kill and could help sell a lot of good football players on Minnesota as a program on the rise.
