Many will point to the Golden Gophers' 66-0 win over Northwestern State as eye-opening, but that was a game where they were a better than 42-point favorite. They scored enough to get the job done vs. Buffalo by posting 23. Cal has moved the ball offensively, scoring 35 vs Oregon St. and 34 vs. Texas Southern. I think both of these teams are going to open it up on offense, as these teams are nearly impossible to run on. I believe there are just two capable offenses here that can get it done through the air, and minimal rushing attempts are going to slow this game down and make it longer. Make the play on the OVER.
