Minny tends to win on the money down, which is going to keep this game close....it's imperative we don't let them establish the run, which shouldn't be a tall task. AH, what ya got?

I think we need to pressure the QB more. They lean on the passing game more and we can’t let the QB sit back there unmolested. Timely blitzes are in order.

Agree. Especially with our DBs not at 100% it would help if we could get pressure on the QB to take some of the pressure off them.

We really need Bryant. He is and Zak are our go to receivers. Colin has been stepping up. Josh is very good for his size.

I don’t understand this emphasis on the fact Bielema is undefeated against Minnesota. Two different teams this year and the past will have zero impact Saturday.

I would not say zero impact, I would say somewhat

A lot of the same coachse are on the sidelines, and that has influence on the players and the game

I had the pleasure of watching Max Brosmer play at the University of New Hampshire starting with his freshman year. He's got a good, not great arm, and has pretty good ball security. During his career at UNH, he threw for 68 TD's and had 25 INT's. He's thrown 5 picks this year. He's a little slow afoot, and not a really big threat to run. He is a little plodding going through his progressions, and tends to be sacked more than average. He's better than the last few QB's Minny has had, but you can get to him.

What I don't understand is how we can have a 60% probability to win, yet be a 3 point dog going into this game.... ? ? ? WTF

The current price for Illinois suggests about a 43% win probability.
