Minnesota vs Syracuse Bad Boy Mowers Pinstripe Bowl, What’s Going To Happen
Minnesota is way too good on third downs.
It’s second in the country both in third down conversions and third down stops, and it’s also second in the country in fewest penalties. The team doesn’t beat itself with turnovers or with flags.
Syracuse is a penalty machine. No one in college football was hit with more flags per game including 31 over the last three outings. Minnesota was flagged just 44 times all year.
The time off should help the injured Orange a bit, but they’re still banged up on the defensive line. The Gopher offensive front will take over as the game goes on.
