Hawks looking to be spoilsports ... 20-3 yardbirds over gophers
I expected it. Looks like Minnesota was a pretender.
Pretender? Really?
Minnesota lost a close game on the road to a ranked team and they're pretenders? Their kicker was injured and as a result they tried some long fourth downs when normally they would have been kicking field goals. They tried and missed a field goal and an extra point - and lost by 4 points.
They are now 9-1. They'll likely beat Northwestern, which will leave them 10-1. Then they'll play Wisconsin at home. If they beat Wisconsin, which is quite possible, they'll win their division and play in the Big 10 championship game and a good shot at the Rose Bowl. If they don't they'll end up 10-2 with a premium bowl game. For real.
