Info:
Minnesota will be looking by this game as just another non-conference softie and let's get ready for the conference.
Herein lays the advantage to Louisiana Lafayette as they couldn‚t be taken any lighter since they sit at humbling 0-3. Minnesota WILL NOT cover FOUR straight games especially when this one is placed where it is on the schedule and the line is -35. Yes this is a good Gopher squad and yes they‚ll go to a bowl this year because they‚ll have enough victories, the required 6 or 7. But, last year they were 7-1 and lost 4 straight because of the same scheduling error. One more factor is this is an improving Ragin Cajuns team that lost 14-7 at South Carolina and 21-14 to Houston last week. Second year coach Ricky Bustle (former Q.B. coach at Va Tech ˆ M. Vick), has now seventy three (73) scholarship players, not the forty-nine (49) he first started with and no longer will he start SEVEN walk-ons like last year. Bustle was 5-7 against the spread last year.
