This heavyweight match up in the Big-10 will certainly have NCAA seeding implications as the winner will get a bounce upward in the RPI. At one point Maryland was 20-2, but have lost more games in their last five than they did prior to that all season. They seem to be hitting a wall offensively, shooting 42% or less in three of the five contests. At 20-7, Minnesota has had a great season to this point. They seemed to hit a wall earlier in the season, which saw this team lose five straight games. Otherwise, the Golden Gophers are 20-2, and are riding high on a five-game winning streak. They certainly have the tools and the confidence to go to Maryland and steal one against the suddenly struggling Terrapins. Take Minnesota on the moneyline.
