Penn State Form

Penn State head to Minnesota having rebounded from the loss to Ohio State with back-to-back wins to reach 9-1.

The Nittany Lions opened the season with three non-conference wins, before kicking off their Big Ten campaign with a 21-7 win over Illinois.

They then beat UCLA 27-11, before heading out on the road to take down USC and Wisconsin in 33-30 and 28-13 wins respectively.

Penn State’s unbeaten run was finally ended by a 20-13 defeat when they hosted Ohio State for a huge Big Ten clash, but they have responded well to that loss.

The Nittany Lions got back to winning ways with a 35-6 blowout of Washington, and then recorded a 49-10 victory when they visited Purdue.

Minnesota Form

Minnesota go into their final home game of the regular season having seen their four-game win streak end with a road defeat last time out.

The Golden Gophers rebounded from an opening-day loss to go into their Big Ten schedule with a 2-1 record, but they soon fell below .500.

They were beaten 31-14 at home by Iowa and 27-24 on the road at Michigan, before finally getting off the mark with a 24-17 upset of USC at home.

Minnesota then backed that up by beating UCLA 21-17 and Maryland 48-23, and made it four in a row when the upset Illinois on the road, 25-17.

The Golden Gophers failed to make it five-in-a-row however, as they were beaten 26-19 at Rutgers last time out.

Verdict

Penn State’s response to the Ohio State loss has been swift and strong.

The Nittany Lions have won their last two games comfortably and we expect them to win this one by double digits too.
