Minnesota vs. Western Kentucky, 7:30 pm, ESPNU
What to Watch:
I am just not that buying the Gophers quite yet this season especially with guard Devoe Joseph indefinitely suspended for violating team rules. WKU is a feisty mid-major that has had success in years past against major conference opponents. The Hilltoppers have a small frontcourt that will have to contest with Minnesota’s height inside, but they are capable of pulling off the upset. The loser of this game cruises to the fifth place finish.
Prediction:
Western Kentucky 65, Minnesota 63
