If Bielema can pull off a bowl game even in a down year. And not just recruiting, but fan engagement and interest. Previous Message If you want to bowl in the B1G, Indiana and NW are teams you must beat regularly. When you lose those games, that's when you'll have to pull off some small miracles against the better programs. Altmyer or Paddock, you just can't lose to Indiana and sell the fan base that things are different now.
