Hopefully, this is conclusive enough that we get the spot in Pasadena over the Gophers when we lose next week. Maybe they go Penn State over us, but at least we've given ourselves a chance when we eventually lose to OSU.
You have a defeatist attitude.

I think we're damn good. We are probably one of the top seven or eight teams in the country. The only teams that have given us any trouble are OSU and ourselves.

But this offense needs the OL to outplay the opposing DL to work. Any other team we have a chance. Against OSU, we don't. And if the offense isn't keeping the ball, our DL will get warn down.

We actually played them damn well for about 40 minutes last time and we still got stomped.

I'd rather be David than sitting in the stands cheering for Goliath.

Good game, Gophers. We play early in the season next year. See you then.

Have fun in a good bowl game this year.

Good game Gopher fans....the game was closer than the score and nothing to be ashamed of. Maybe the players will take it out on their bowl game opponent...

Was it though?

They had that 50 yard TD pass to start and a garbage time TD. Otherwise...

See your 'boys in the playoffs..... ooh! I guess we won't. My bad. :dhd:
Dallas will be lucky if they get to the playoffs despite playing in a weak division.

Being ranked #8 early in the year and not living up to the ranking is much different than beating a bunch of bad teams then having one lucky game vs Penn St only to shit themselves vs Iowa and now get embarrassed by Sconni. Most overrated #8 all time!
