Glen Mason's Golden Gophers prepare for road game in Michigan
The newest battle in the annual war between the Wolverines and Golden Gophers kicks off Saturday at Michigan Stadium.
The Golden Gophers look to avenge an earlier 27-24 loss at the hands of the Wolverines.
The Wolverines are favored, opening as 8-point chalk. They are 2-3 ATS this season while the Golden Gophers are 4-1 ATS.
Minnesota's defence was shredded for 44 points last game by the Nittany Lions attack and they need a superior effort from that defensive unit this week or the opening total could be eclipsed by halftime.
Lloyd Carr's team was busy last game winning against Michigan St. 34-31 as 4.5-point underdogs.
Michigan knows that beating the Golden Gophers depends on stopping the run. Minnesota will hit them with a ground game that has averaged 283.8 yards per game this season, #2 in the league.
Some trends to consider:
Minnesota is 2-4-0 ATS in their last 6 away lined games
Minnesota is 4-2-0 SU in their last 6 games after scoring 10 to 20 points
Minnesota is 5-1-0 ATS in their last 6 lined games
Michigan is 4-1-0 SU in their last 5 games after scoring 31 to 40 points
Michigan is 2-6-0 ATS in their last 8 home lined games
Next up:
Minnesota home to Wisconsin, Saturday, October 15
Michigan home to Penn St., Saturday, October 15
