As I was researching Big Ten Football over the last decade, I came across some crazy information. Did you know that Minnesota has beaten Arkansas, Oregon and Alabama as their last three bowl wins, while Michigan has only beaten one team in a bowl game the last 10 years....Florida twice! Or how about this, Northwestern has just one bowl win in school history, and that was the 1949 Rose Bowl. Below are some other numbers and information to impress your friends with.
Total Wins in Program History:
1. Michigan 884
2. Nebraska 837
3. Ohio State 819 (lost 11 wins from 2010 season)
4. Penn State 818
5. Minnesota 642
