per Alek:
Minnesota pulled off one of the most-impactful upsets of the season taking down No. 4 Penn State on Saturday. The Golden Gophers got their first signature win and as a result, are starting to get some well deserved respect.
But not all are sold on PJ Fleck’s squad. In fact, Fox Sports analyst Brady Quinn doesn’t think Minnesota is deserving of a top 10 ranking.
“I’m not sure they’ll even jump into the top 10,” Quinn said on Saturday. “I’m gonna be honest with you – It’s those wins on the road that really get them there. They’re going to have to play on the road … If they beat Iowa, that’s where you see them take that next big leap. They’ll definitely jump up from 17 … but Top-10 after this? I’m not sure.”
Quinn believes Minnesota’s win over Penn State on Saturday won’t matter as much because it was a home game for the Golden Gophers. He goes on to say that if they were to beat Iowa on the road next Saturday, they’d be deserving of a top 10 ranking.
It’s certainly an interesting argument. But most college fans, and especially Minnesota fans, would have to disagree. Minnesota dominated Penn State despite the final score’s close margin.
