Minnesota Golden Gophers at Wisconsin Badgers Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
Minnesota comes in humbly with a fantastic record of 8-3. The three losses this year were by margins of a touchdown or less against three Big Ten powerhouses: Penn State, Nebraska and Iowa. Two of those three defeats were suffered on the road, one of which required overtime before a victor was determined.

<p>
Wisconsin at 9-2 is undoubtedly the best two-loss team in America as they lost to two teams ranked as high as #2 by a touchdown or less. The Badgers have rattled off six in a row and own wins over LSU, Nebraska and Iowa this season. A win puts Bucky in the Big Ten Championship Game against Ohio State, Penn State or Michigan.

Public Money Consensus<br />

<p>
We have seen 84% of the public take the Huskies against the spread while spotting points to the home pooch Cougars. In this market Wiscy spotting points requires less juice at -105 compared to the Golden Gophers who are priced at -115 with a fifteen-point take. There has been significant action on the Over in Over/Under markets and thus this market has risen by 1.5 points from 42.5 to 44.

Minnesota Golden Gophers at Wisconsin Badgers Prediction
Six of the previous ten meetings have been settled by thirteen points or less. Over two touchdowns may be too much of a price to ask as both outfits believe in a run-first offensive philosophy complemented by solid defensive play. This game will undoubtedly be a match-up where possessions count and where one mistake will be the difference maker. This will be an old-fashioned smashmouth affair contrary to many of the high-flying and high-scoring outings you will see in the modern game. Thus the Under is also a great play in this market. Given the amount of points here, there has to be some scrutiny as the price may be inflated given Wisconsin’s ranking combined with the potential to vie for the Big Ten crown.
