Northwestern Wildcats vs Minnesota Golden Gophers 11/12/2022 Picks Predictions Previews

 

The Northwestern Wildcats will go against the Minnesota Golden Gophers in NCAAF action in Huntington Bank Stadium, MN, on Saturday, November 12, 2022, at 3:30 PM ET.

 

Several predicted that this team would go winless over the following few months after defeating Nebraska in Ireland during the opening week of the season.

 

Unfortunately, it is the current situation the Wildcats are in. They are now in the bottom half of their Big Ten division after eight consecutive losses, and improvement doesn’t appear to be in the cards.

 

Although their recent troubles against Minnesota simply raise further questions about their approach going into this one, it did not appear to matter to this bunch whether they were at home or on the road.

 

Despite how good Minnesota was on that side of the ball, moving the ball is anticipated to be a challenge for this team on Saturday.

 

The Wildcats are 75th in the country for scoring even though their passing performance peaked, and they are below the top 100 for running yards per game.

 

This team’s quarterback situation remains inconsistent, but a strong dose of Evan Hull (4.2 yards per carry, four touchdowns) could relieve some of the strain on the offense.

 

  • The Northwestern Wildcats are 0-8 SU in their last 8 matches. 
  • The Northwestern Wildcats are 0-9 SU in their last 9 matches on the road. 
  • The total went UNDER in 6 of Northwestern’s last 7 matches on the road against Minnesota.

Northwestern Wildcats vs Minnesota Golden Gophers Predictions 11/12/2022

 

Minnesota’s 2022 season was nothing but ups and downs, but with a few games remaining, they are right in the middle of the Big Ten West fight.

 

They are in the chase, like most teams in their division, and at 3-3, this team absolutely needs to win on Saturday. They look to be in a good place to win this one considering being at home and hope several important players return to the lineup.

 

The Golden Gophers will take their victory any way they can get it, even though it may be more of a reflection of Northwestern’s difficulties.

 

Although everyone anticipated that Minnesota’s running game would be good, the absence of a potent passing attack was an issue despite the offense’s wealth of experience.

 

The revolving door of injuries played a part in that, but it’s also concerning that passing is 106th nationally. But in this game, Mohamed Ibrahim (5.4 yards per carry, 15 touchdowns) is likely to draw all the attention, and given Northwestern’s trouble stopping the run, this may be a route to victory.

 

  • The Minnesota Golden Gophers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 matches. 
  • The total went UNDER in 4 of Minnesota’s last 6 matches. 
  • The Minnesota Golden Gophers are 9-3 SU in their last 12 matches.

Northwestern Wildcats vs Minnesota Golden Gophers. The NCAAF pick for this game is the Minnesota Golden Gophers. Minnesota is set up ideally to win this contest, and their defensive front will be the place to start.

 

The Golden Gophers shut down opponents at every step this season, and against one of the poorest teams in the league when they visit Northwestern, that trend is surely going to continue.

 

The fact that Minnesota will be prepared to run against one of the worst rushing defenses in the nation just helps to increase the likelihood that they will win this match easily at home.

 

Additionally, Minnesota is 6-1 ATS in their previous seven home games, while Northwestern is 0-6 ATS in their last six matches following an ATS win. The Minnesota Golden Gophers will win to a predicted score of 30-11.
