Pick
I’m backing the over here. I just don’t trust Minnesota at home, but I’m not looking to lay points on the road with Indiana either. Head-to-head, this has been a high-scoring matchup in recent years and I just feel most comfortable backing that trend to continue rather than plugging my nose and taking a side here. Give me the over.
