The Minnesota Golden Gophers have had issues in two of their three biggest games of the season, but they do get after it defensively and do have a road win over Michigan, which counts for something despite the Wolverines issues. The Indiana Hoosiers are in a bit of a letdown spot after their win over Ohio State, and their offense does come and go at times. Minnesota should be able to make this game ugly and slow paced, and should be able to hang around just enough.
