Minnesota is 8-3 (5-3), clinching their third 8-win season in the last 4 years and second 5-win conference season in the same span. The Gopher have beaten the teams they were supposed to and lost close games to the teams we care most about beating.
We all felt great in 2013 after 8 wins, .500 in conference, 4-game winning streak in conference, wins over Penn State and Nebraska. We felt even better in 2014 with multiple trophies, another 8 win season, 5 conference wins, and a January 1st bowl. Last year was tough, but we survived an injury riddled year and the loss of our coach respectably.
