Minnesota Looking For First Power Conference Win
The Minnesota Golden Gophers are 2-2 heading into this weekend's Minnesota vs Michigan matchup from Ann Arbor. The Golden Gophers opened their season with a loss to North Carolina, beat Rhode Island and Nevada, then lost at home to Iowa. Here, PJ Fleck's team will look to win in their first road game of the year, while they are also looking for their first win of the year against a power conference school. To get that win, Minnesota will need to find a way to breach a Michigan defense that has looked ferocious early on, even if the offense of the Wolverines has struggled mightily early in the 2024 season.
Michigan Looks to Build On Win Over USC
Last week, the Michigan Wolverines put out a defiant statement to anyone doubting them, as they beat the USC Trojans at home almost entirely behind their defense and running game. Michigan got just 32 passing yards from quarterback Alex Orji in that contest, but they ran for 290 yards despite everyone in the Big House knowing that the run was coming on just about every play. This week, it will be interesting to see if the Wolverines try and throw the ball a little more against what should be a more manageable opponent. But in any case, Michigan will be expected to win this game to get to 4-1 on the season and 2-0 in the Big Ten.
Minnesota vs Michigan Best Bet
The low total in this Minnesota vs Michigan matchup suggests that we are in for a less than exciting ballgame between these Big Ten rivals. But Michigan should be able to win and cover the spread in this game, even if it isn't the most aesthetically pleasing affair. Look for the defense of the Wolverines to keep Minnesota from doing much scoring, while the Wolverines should be able to grind Minnesota's defense down with their running game over the course of four quarters.
