    The Gophers are favored by 17 points at home tomorrow against the Nevada Wolf Pack. Should they lose this game, it will all but sink their chances at a bowl game. The big ten schedule portion of the season begins next week against Iowa, followed by Michigan, USC, and UCLA.

    Iowa blew a 13-0 halftime lead at home last Saturday against their in-state rival Iowa State, and lost 20-19 with under a minute left in regulation.

    Meh, USC is the only one of those teams to handle their business thus far. Gophers should, and better, win vs Nevada but they should have a punchers chance, at least, of pulling out a W off against those teams as well.

    The opening line favors the visiting Hawkeyes by 2.5 points on Saturday evening against the Gophers. Iowa is 2-1, just like Minnesota. They began the season nationally ranked but lost at home to in-state rival Iowa State in week 2.

    Floyd of Rosedale is on the line here.

    Anyone understand why a rivalry game is happening so early in the season?

    Because of scheduling conflicts as they slowly transition to the Big 96er Conference. The more meaningless (in terms of conference supremacy) rivalries are sacrificed to make the schedule work, so the league gets all the meat and gristle $$$ too.
