Week 9 of the college football season continues Saturday afternoon with a Big Ten battle between the Minnesota Golden Gophers and Iowa Hawkeyes.

The Hawkeyes host the Golden Gophers, looking to win a third straight game. The Hawkeyes come into the game 5-2 overall and 3-1 in the Big Ten. Their lone loss in the conference was to Indiana by just five points.

The Golden Gophers also come into Saturday on a two-game winning streak and are fresh off their biggest win of the year. They upset Nebraska last Friday, 24-6, and they now sit at 5-2 overall and 3-1 in the Big Ten.

  • Over-Under: Over 39.5 (-115), Under 39.5 (-105)

Iowa vs Minnesota prediction, pick:

The Hawkeyes are quietly having a great season. They have just two losses and both were against ranked opponents, yet they didn't receive a vote in the latest AP Poll. The defense is once again playing well and the offense is improving. The Golden Gophers, though, aren't going to roll over and they come into the game with a ton of momentum. If this game were in Minneapolis, it might be different, but the Hawkeyes are just going to be too much. Iowa gets the win, but it's close.

Prediction: Iowa 21, Minnesota 17

Best Bet: Minnesota +8.5, Under 39.5
