After all of that, it looks like Penn State is going to play football.
A nationwide ground stoppage caused Minnesota to turn around while enroute to State College, but ultimately, the Gophers are gonna fly in the morning and, from there, be ready to go play Penn State.
Penn State is getting into a rhythm, and can keep it going against Minnesota Saturday night at Beaver Stadium.
As Lou Brown said in Major League II: “We won a game yesterday. If we win today, it’s called ‘two in a row.’ And if we win again tomorrow, it’s called a ‘winning streak.’ It has been done before.”
Penn State is in the “two in a row” stage right now, and if Vegas is right, it will become a “winning streak.”
Penn State is a 9.5-point favorite over Minnesota per FanDuel Sportsbook, which is two points higher than it was when the line opened Sunday.
It’s a game Penn State should win, but don’t sell this Gophers’ squad short.
THE GOPHERS ARE TOUGH
Minnesota’s 5-4 record is deceiving. The Gophers are coming off three consecutive games against ranked teams, and could have won all of them. Minnesota beat No. 15 Iowa, 13-10, then almost beat Indiana before the Hoosiers nailed a 60-yard field goal to send the game into overtime. Indiana won from there.
The next week, Minnesota was tied with No. 5 UCLA in the fourth quarter before Bob Chesney’s Bruins pulled away for a 34-20 win.
Yep, Minnesota is a team that could get Penn State if it isn’t careful.
