Nobody talking about it, but Minny also "controls their own destiny" in the b1g West

Minny is 4-2 in b1g play and 7-2 overall and tied for 1st in the b1g west with Wisconsin and UNL. Minny wins out and they win the West. Minny and Wisconsin play in the last week of the b1g season and are the only two that if they win out to when they play each other "control their own destiny" (IOW, UNL is stuck behind Wisconsin even if they beat Minny this coming weekend and would need help from somebody regarding Wisconsin).

Both the BTN highlight and ESPN CFB highlight shows mentioned that yesterday when discussing B1G title game scenarios.

My cabin neighbor is a huge Gopher fan. He's still trying to process their loss to PSU.

Very curious to see how Minnesota handles the next 3 games. Nebraska is beat up from past two weeks in Madison and C-bus.

It's definitely conceivable Gophers can get into a de facto B1G West championship game against Wisky during the last weekend.

I thought Nebraska was over rated to start with and I've never been a Tommy Armstrong fan (glad he was ok, that looked scary). If he's out for their game I think Minny has an excellent shot at beating them.
As for Wiscy I kind of think they are a smoke and Mirror team. Their defense is really, really good but their offense isn't.
I would give Minny a fair shot at beating them.
