So I went over to the ESPN board for the Minnesota/Toledo game after I got back, and I saw posts reminding Minnesota fans to vote to put the Gophers at #1 in the SportsNation poll, which is working brilliantly so far, as the Gophers are indeed in the top spot with nearly twice as many points as the poll's current #2 VCU. The poll asks voters to rate the current AP top 30 teams in order. Currently Minnesota and a few mid-majors are occupying the top 5 spots, and in last at #30 is none other than the Wisconsin Badgers.
Obviously this doesn't mean anything, but I think it's cool that Gopher fans on ESPN were able to get our fanbase to do this, plus it could mean we get a mention on TV when this poll comes up on the show (assuming such polls are used as discussion topics, I don't watch SportsNation, so I don't really know).
