Betting Trends for vs
Both of these teams were embarrassed in their opening game of the season as they both gave up 40+ points, but the Maryland loss was by far the worst as they allowed Northwestern to score 43 points after only averaging 16.3 PPG. Minnesota has a very dangerous duo with Tanner Morgan and Rashod Bateman, and they proved it last game as they hooked up 9 times for 101 yards, and they should have no problem slashing the Maryland secondary. The Minnesota defense was unable to stop the Michigan Wolverines, but they should feel confident playing against the Alabama transfer as Tagovailoa threw 3 interceptions in his 1st start. Minnesota is a much better team than what they showed during the opening night of Big Ten play, and they prove that with a blowout win. Final Score Prediction, Minnesota Golden Gophers win and cover ATS 41-14.
