$$ Northwestern at Minnesota $$

Minnesota -6 and first half -?

Really like the gophers in this spot. They are possibly an undervalued team given there recent road woes, going against a possibly overvalued team that struggles on the road in Northwestern. Minnesota has beaten some solid opponents, all by 6 or more points at the barn so far this year, (Virginia,Cornell,Ohio State,Penn State,Illinois, and Louisville (neutral court) The Gophers will also have revenge on there mind after being up by 3 in the first half only to lose by 9 in Evanston on 1-18-09. If this Gopher team has any hopes of making the big dance it starts today at 6pm.

Did you just list Cornell as a SOLID team?

Cornell is a top 100 team which they beat by 17, so yes that is a quality win in my book. GL to you though Drewgasm.

Michigan State -4.5 First Half

Made some money lately with resurgent Badgers, but I think this is the time to jump off the bandwagon. Wisconsin just doesnt have that consistant scoring threat that past teams have had, and while there defense has been better of late, it's still very inconsistant on the road. Michigan State has been a fairly good first half team as well, +11 vs Ohio State, +19 vs Kansas, +26 vs Minnesota +7 vs Indiana, and +15 vs Oklahoma State. Magic Johnson will also be in attendance for a special half time ceremony for the 79 title team, so you know emotions will be running high, and the crowd should have an early impact!

Dude.....seriously.....being ranked in the 90's is NOT a Solid team...top beating a top 25 team is a SOLID team.....Im sure the everyone has SOLId wins according to that scale....I guess we just differ on what SOLID opponet is...Good luck on your play bro....

There are no excuses for how Michigan State played in the first half, I thought Wisco would be the ones playing sloppy and looking lost on offense....But all is forgotten if I hit my LARGE and original play of Minnesota -6 , 43-23 with a TON of basketball to play...heres to the Gophers keeping the heat on!
