Iowa got the ball back with a chance to drive 25 yards for a game-winning FG. This is the ONLY time in 30+ years I felt 100% confident the Gophers wouldn't screw this up. THAT'S HOW BAD DEACON HILL IS. Think about it.
It should be 4 down territory all game. OSU drove 85 yards in 8 plays. It won't matter where they get the ball. If the Gophers can convert a few 4th downs, it will keep the OSU offense off the field.
"It marks the biggest point spread for difference Minnesota since they were (+29.5) point underdogs the last time they played in Columbus (2018)."
29.5 (2018) down to 28.5 (2023). Heading in the right direction. gROWth!
