Northwestern has a chance to play spoiler to Minnesota’s Big Ten West and College Football Playoff aspirations as the Gophers trek down to Evanston. Here’s what our staff sees going down on Saturday:
Noah Coffman: Minnesota 33, Northwestern 10
We might see Andrew Marty. We might see Hunter Johnson. Hell, we could even see Jason Whittaker or Zac Krause. It won’t matter. Minnesota, regardless of who is under center, will rely on Tyler Johnson and Rashod Bateman dominating their matchups on the outside.
