Upset alert: It wouldn’t be a shock to see Minnesota waltz into Beaver Stadium and shock Penn State. The Nittany Lions are still a work in progress in Year Three under James Franklin. There is a new offense and quarterback, as well as a new defensive coordinator. And a new o-line coach in former Gopher OC and offensive line coach Matt Limegrover, who no doubt will be jacked to play his former employer. The Gophers could be riding high on a 3-0 start as they head to State College, Pa., for their first road game of the season coming off a home tilt vs. Colorado State. Penn State will be coming off a tough, physical game at Michigan.

Ranking the Games of Week Five
1. Wisconsin at Michigan
2. Northwestern at Iowa
3. Minnesota at Penn State
4. Michigan State at Indiana
5. Illinois at Nebraska
6. Purdue at Maryland
7. Rutgers at Ohio State

Go Gophers!!
 

I hate the term, but this is the game where the rubber meets the road. Very pivotal game for TC
and staff. Very winnable game that would set the tone for the home game against the Hawkeyes.
 

Penn State has been stinky but that road game still will probably be pretty tough.
 

If we win, it won't be an upset. A lot at stake with the Mayor's Triumphant Cup on the line.
 




Technically will be underdogs, but only because it's a road game and Happy Valley tough place to just waltz into. Wouldn't even worry about this one if we were at home. Hopefully the offense will be on all cylinders and Michigan really beats up Penn State
