Minnesota +8.5 2.2% play

USC is in a tough spot here after back to back games against physical teams in Michigan and Wisconsin.  Thier blowout over Wisconsin is misleading, while Minnesota should have came back to beat Michigan. There is no die in this Minnesota team that is getting healthier by the week.  I think Minnesota can really give USC a scare, and their success rate averages and opponent averages are better than USC.  This is a home game for Minnesota and it's going to be a bit windy here with sustain winds over 10mph and gusts in the 20's, which is not going to help the USC offense.  Lincoln Riley 8-18 ATS As a road favorite.  I think this game is a battle much like the Michigan game.  Minnesota really wants to establish the run, and USC 101st in ypc defense.
