What would the Gophers' 2018 B1G conference record be if Joe Rossi started before fall camp?
Excluding the 3 games he was actually in charge (with 2-1 record), here are the options:
2-7
3-6 (actual finish)
4-5
5-4
6-3
7-2
8-1
(You could make the case that these last 3 games would have played out differently if he was in charge all year, so including an "other" option in poll).
My pick:
6-3
The Ohio State game is an automatic loss, and the other 5 losses were up for grabs IMO. I think Rossi wins 3 out of these 5 toss-ups leading to a 6-3 B1G record:
@Maryland (L)
Iowa (W)
@Nebraska (W)
Illinois (W)
Northwestern (L)
I think bare minimum they would have finished over .500 at 5-4.
