The how does Minny lose to these Dakota schools thread has led me to take another look at this game, and still, I can't really see how Minny keeps this one close. I've heard many people say they like Minny + the points, so please tell me why. Michigan is coming off a 21 pt. victory over San Diego St, (yes i'm aware of the Hoke situation) which appears to me to be a more talented team than Minnesota. Minny lost to N. Dakota St, not a bad FCS team, but a FCS team none the less. The only evidence I see to suggest Minny will keep this close is that they hung with USC early in the season. But how good is USC?? I don't see Minny stopping Robinson or the Michigan offense. Thoughts?
