Penn State leads most if not all offensive and defensive categories. But Minnesota leads nearly if not all kicking and returning (special teams) categories. Penn State is favored by 15 points. The statistical edge is with the Lions.
In common opponents, both teams played Syracuse. Penn State won their match-up 28-7 while Syracuse took Minnesota to OT before losing 23-20. Edge PSU.
Records. Penn State has one loss to !*w@, ranked 11th. The Gophers lost to Cal and Wisconsin, neither of which is currently ranked. Edge PSU.
Looking Ahead: The Lions travel to Ann Arbor. Minnesota travels to Columbus. Push.
It is homecoming for Penn State. Edge PSU, even though the 1999 Minnesota game was also a homecoming game!
