The Big Ten conference stayed undefeated in the bowl season Thursday with Minnesota's win over Syracuse in the Pinstripe Bowl. The Gophers jumped out to an early lead and never trailed to the Orange, as Minnesota denied Syracuse of winning its third Pinstripe Bowl in Yankee Stadium. Tanner Morgan got his storybook ending at quarterback for the Gophers, and PJ Fleck completed his third straight nine-win season when Minnesota plays a full schedule. After the 28-20 win, Nate Dickinson goes over everything from the second Big Ten bowl game of the season on Locked On Big 10. Part of the Locked On Podcast Network.


Later, Nate previews the battle between Michigan and TCU in the College Football Playoff semifinal. The Wolverines look elite all-around on paper, and the Horned Frogs match up well on offense. However, the TCU defense doesn't quite live up to the billing. Can Michigan take advantage while holding Heisman runner-up Max Duggan down? Nate looks at it all on today's show as part of the Locked On Podcast Network.
