The Golden Gophers dominate this historical series, winning nine of the last 10 meetings, including four times on the road. The Golden Gophers play solid \u201cD,\u201d allowing 64.1 points per game, and their offense cracks the national top 30 in field goal percentage and three-point percentage.  <\/p>\n<p>The Golden Gophers have also been good to bettors of late, beating the spread in five of their last six games. That\u2019s no small feat considering there were 17 and 14-point spreads during that run.  <\/p>\n<p>Penn State does have an offensive force that Minnesota doesn\u2019t have in Taylor Battle, but he may not be 100 per cent for Thursday\u2019s game after battling stomach problems.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bmaker.ag\/latest-promo\/?cmpid=17435_3889\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #FFFFFF;\" src=\"http:\/\/banners.bmaker.ag\/images\/book_basketball_260_180_0.gif?cmpid=3052_1355\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"260\" height=\"180\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Either way, he won\u2019t be enough.
