I believe 6 or 7 big 10 teams went to bowl games last year. I know they
lost most of them, but just the fact that they were respected enough to
be invited says something I think.

Minnesota, by defeating Wisconsin is assured of their first winning record
since 1981. In 1982-1983 (the 2 pre-Lou Holtz years) the Gophers had a   
4-18 record, losing 18 straight big 10 games. What a difference a coach 
makes!!
