Ohio State hit a bump in the road, losing five of six games. Considering their overall record of 21-6, they have gotten back on track. The issue was on the defensive end, as Ohio State forgot what they were - a great defensive team. The six losses show them allowing 71.3 points per game, while not a single team in their 21 wins has reached the 70-point mark. Minnesota has been very good defensively themselves, allowing less than 70 points in 17 games on the season, and these teams played earlier to a game that featured a total of just 116 points. The Gophers have gotten focused on the defensive end after a poor double-digit loss at home, following by going 7-2 to the UNDER in their last nine. The Buckeyes are 11-5 to the UNDER in their last 16 vs. a winning team. Look for this one to play out as the last one did, and be decided on the defensive end of the court. Make the play on the UNDER.
