Minnesota game is CRITICAL

It's all about recruiting at this point. I know Pike is going to do it here as long as he can recruit, but it will be so much easier to do so if we can pull off a .500 record this year. Winning tomorrow gets us closer to that.

Sorry. I'd love to win, but in the scheme of things it is just another game.

Pikiell, in my eyes, has accomplished exactly what I wanted. The foundation is being built.

Say we finish 16-15. The OOC and B1G schedule both improves and next year we are improved yet finish with the same 16-15. It won't look like progress.

It is possible that next years schedule could be 3-4 wins harder. 2016-17 could be 12-19 with a tougher OOC and a bettter B1G.
