I said this in another post a few days ago when saying who I wanted to win each B1G game this week:
Northwestern at Minnesota - Minnesota. I think they are well outside of bubble territory right now and their schedule is too tough to overcome it. We don't want Minnesota to fall too far as they are a "good win" and not a "bad loss". Also, since we played Minnesota twice and NW once, there is an SOS bump to the Gophers winning.
What did Minnesota do? They lost. And their RPI fell to 102, stripping us for the moment of a "good win" and giving us a "bad loss".
