Rutgers would have difficulty defeating most FBS opponents let alone a top 20 ranked team such as Minnesota. The Golden Gophers have established a strong running game with efficient passing on offense and a stingy defense that has allowed an average of just 12.0 per game the last two games. Rutgers cannot move the ball on offense and is allowing 36.0 per game on defense. Final Score Prediction, Minnesota Golden Gophers win and cover ATS 41-7
