per ESPN, who is counting down the best Non-Confernece games in the BT:

No. 41: Minnesota vs. Eastern Illinois, Aug. 28: How did an FCS game escape our worst tier? Because the Panthers won 12 games a year ago and could once again have an explosive offense thanks to some FBS transfers. Gophers had better be wary.

No. 38: Minnesota vs. Middle Tennessee, Sept. 6: The Blue Raiders have built a solid program. Again, the Gophers just can't roll out of bed and expect to win this one.

No. 33: Minnesota vs. San Jose State, Sept. 20: Thought the Spartans might pull the upset last year in Minneapolis, but the Gophers handled them just fine. SJSU comes to Minnesota after playing at Auburn this year. Paycheck time.
