Minnesota vs West Virginia: Guaranteed Rate Bowl, What’s Going To Happen
West Virginia lives on ball control, but Minnesota is better at that.
If you’re looking for a whole lot of flash, splash, and dash, keep on moving. But if you’re in for a late night of tough running, keeping the clock moving, and PJ Fleck coming up with yet another good win over a team outside of the Big Ten, here you go.
Both teams will bring the fight, and Minnesota – with a slew of key parts returning – will use this as a launching pad to what should be a strong 2022.
