    Minnesota/Kansas Winner
    I love KU...scrappy team helped put together my down payment for my house last year...I think they covered all but the Mizzou game in 2007!
    However in 2008 their defense took a step back at over 29 ppg allowed! Nobody will confuse Minnesota's offense w/Oklahoma or Texas but they will have super receiver Eric Decker back in the mix! He had 76 catches & 6 TDs...his late season ankle injury held him to 3 catches over the last 3 games and was a part of Minny's late slide! I watched Minny alot early this year and their D-Line is pretty decent! They hounded Juice Williams to death and beat Illinois on the road! They should be able to keep Reesing from running all over them along w/the passing game! I like their coach Brewster too and they'll be ready to play! The line is +9 on Bodog and that will be more than enough here. I see Reesing pulling the game out in the 4th quarter but Minny stays close!

    GL!!

    well most of you are going to want my thoughts on this game. All I have to say is better bet on pitt vs oregon st before this game.

    Minnesota is overrated with a overrated coach, but they can make plays. NO QUESTION! They have a QB WR tandem that is very good, but i'm not sure the star WR is even playing today.

    The D is good enough to hold you to FG's and they have a DE rush that seems to be really coached well. They can break the edge, and split the FB block and get in the back field in no time. WATCH IT FOR TODAY! it will happen.

    Kansas is a iffy team. They have a strong passing attack, but no question missing Henry and a few back ups from last season hurt. They just don't have that quick attack. It's more slowed down, cordinated more. That might not be a good thing.

    If Kansas can get their 2 WR's down the sideline and Maier can escape the Gopher rush, then it's GAME OVER for Minnesota.

    Kansas should win, but the Gophers are very excited to be in a bowl and might keep it close.


    I see a Kansas win, with Gophers taking the experience into next season.
