The Gophers are trotting out a new offense, as QB Tanner Morgan is gone, as well as leading rusher Mo Ibrahim. It returns only two starting offensive linemen, as well. They do have a promising defense, though, after finishing seventh in defensive success rate last year, per cfb-graphs.com. Minnesota was also stout in the red zone, ranking fourth nationally in touchdowns allowed per red-zone trips.

The Huskers have a new coach, Matt Rhule, and QB, Jeff Sims (GT transfer). Facing an in-division foe in week one will be a challenge, to say the least. Nebraska's pace of play will likely be slow, with a veteran offensive line and a rushing QB under center. They will aim to shorten the game with longer possessions dominated by the ground game.

Bet on the under at 43.5 total points in this B1G West clash.
