What a difference a game makes...

First off, good job NW!

Now, since we lost to Iowa, we're sitting in a tie for 8th.

If we'd won, we'd be in sole possession of 5th.

D'arg.

On the other hand, if we'd lost to Nebraska, we'd be in sole possession of 10th.

5th place is up for grabs

Exactly, there are now 5 teams from 5th to 9th in the standings vying for 2 maybe 3 tourney invites. With 5 of the last 7 at home, competent play (4-3) gets us to 9-9, 5-2 to 10-8. It's within the Gophers' reach, particularly if they can win 2 of the next 3, beating Whiskey and NW. Make it happen Gophers!
