Minnesota at Ohio State

The Minnesota Golden Gophers have proven to be able to stop the mediocre offenses that they have faced this season. It remains to be seen if they can handle the potent Buckeyes attack, even though they will be without QB J.T. Barrett. Minnesota has faced five teams that average fewer than 28 points per game and held them to 91 points or 18.2 ppg. However, the two offenses that average over 28 ppg against they have allowed 38.5 ppg against. Ohio State is far and away better than either of those two, and at the same time have an elite defense, while the Minnesota offensive attack is below average. This should lead to a huge advantage by Ohio State on both sides of the ball. The Buckeyes also have a 56-19 ATS situation on their side, as well as a 29-4 ATS situation. Lay the points on Ohio State in a lopsided win.
