Week 8 @ Minnesota: Game Notes, Depth Chart, Etc

[Omar Little]

I watched the the whole Minnesota - Purdue game. Minnesota is not good. I was surprised how underwhelming they are. The short week home game helps them but we should win this game by two touchdowns if we are a serious team. Vegas concurs.

Does anyone know of any public tailgates by gopher stadium? We will be up there with a large group but haven’t heard of anything going on.

People are making Minnesota out to be some juggernaut. Nebraska had them in 2023, literally just fumbled when

I dont know about tailgates, but when I go there I go to Surly. Massive indoor/outdoor brewery there that is relatively close to the stadium.

Surly is a good time

I don't know if we can beat them by 10 like the spread says currently (Nebraska is 2-4 vs the spread this year), but I do feel a bit better about us coming out of Minneapolis with a win. I just am not willing to predict it yet.

For what it's worth, Minnesota is 1-5 ATS this year

My only thing is: I don't think Minnesota has EVER really been good. They usually look like shit in the first 5 games of the season. Then their season turns on the Nebraska game. They beat us...Fleck goes apeshit....and then they actually go on a mini-run after that and get some Ws.

So my only counter is, they always look like shit to me. But they've beaten us 6 out of 7 times. And the Nebraska that played 2-3 quarters vs MSU and MD could certainly lose this road FRI night game on a short week.


One thing is Fleck likes Rhule so he won't have that maniacal streak in him he had vs Frost. I think the MN teams fed off his psychosis. They always played their best game of the season vs Nebraska.
