While both of these teams play great defense, Ohio State actually tends to give up quite a few points on the road (73 per game this season). Meanwhile, Minnesota holds opponents to just 61 per game on their home court. Ohio State has been on fire, having won five of their last six both SU and ATS. This is a good matchup and situation for the Gophers, though. Minnesota is 24-10 ATS versus good 3 point shooting teams since 1997. They are also 22-10 ATS at home versus good defensive teams over the same time period and 5-1 ATS at home when facing a team with a winning record this season. Finally, the Gophers are 10-1 ATS off 2 consecutive losses of 10 or more to conference rivals since 1997. Two stars on Minnesota.
