This game should be Minnesota by atleast 10.5
 
Wisconson beat North Western by 29....and Minny went into Wisconson and beat them by 10... Now u have Western the favourite?...I dont get it!

This aint a typo people.  It's the kind of game that sharp cappers dream of.  9 out of every 10 people will take Minnesota.  Not me.

Taking Northwestern -1 for an EXTRA LARGE sized play.

Usually when a line looks to good to be true, it probably is.  Minnesota should be the favorite here, obviously.  Hard to walk away from Minny +1 though.  Tough call.  GL to all.

There are no injuries on Minnesota, NW coming off the emotional loss to Purdue, and Tubby is telling them in a meeting right now that they have only lost one game and the whole world doesn't even know about it. Do not over analyze this, play Minnesota and take the point!

NW is not a bad team.  the line should not be 10.  this is a toss up IMO and the line reflects that.

Locks is on point.  I've watched NW win in games where I've had their opponent, just to blow it in the final minutes.  NW is better than their record shows.  I'm still undecided, but NW is not a bad team and the line is exactly where it should be.

The line is set at -1 for a reason and it's not so we can all get our money back from Saturday by jumping on Minny.
As much as I want to take the bait, I'm laying off.

public hammering minny and the line is moving the other way.  we should all no what that means and who to play in this one.  if you don't, take this game as a lesson and learn from it.

Minnesota will cover... Sometimes you take the better team even if the line moves telling you not too. Trends, record, etc all point to Minny for me.

Big Play on Gophers +2.

It will be a close game, NW gets dirty at home. However I think NW will not have the same effort after blowing the Purdue game. All these close losses will discourage a team eventually
