Minnesota has just the seventh-best odds to win the Big Ten.
P.J. Fleck and the Golden Gophers aren't getting much respect following last year's 11-2 campaign that culminated with a win over Auburn in the Outback Bowl. As we sit here in late June, three West Division programs – Wisconsin, Nebraska, and Iowa – all have better odds to capture the Big Ten title.
Those odds are a little surprising considering all that Fleck has returning to the Twin Cities. It's true that the Badgers and Hawkeyes both got the best of the Gophers in 2019, but both programs lost some heavy hitters following the season.
