I tried to do a poll, but on phone couldn't figure it out.

How do they do? Win big? Barely win? Lose to the gophers?

I hope Minnesota can represent well.

 
Minnesota secondary is a strength. Their offense can grind out long drives. Avoid the big play on defense and convert long drives to Touchdowns, not field goals on offense.

Could be interesting. I'm rooting for Minnesota.

I think it will be a blow out but I always have hope going into these things. And hey, Indiana beat Missouri last year. lol.

 
Minnesota 27

TCU 23

Honestly think Minny's defense under Kill will carry this team far this season, and Kill lives for these games.

 
TCU can be beat. Just glancing back their 2014 schedule it looks like they survived a couple close games with mediocre teams. LINK They only beat Kansas by four points at home, and won by four over a 7-6 West Virginia team.

Wouldn't surprise me to see The Gophers win this one: Minny 24-17.

 
I don't hold much hope for Minny to pull off the upset, but how great would it be for the Big Ten? TCU is a preseason playoff favorite and my pick to win the Big 12. Knocking them off early would go a long way towards changing the way others look at the Big Ten.

That said, TCU 41 Minnesota 28

 
Though I'm hoping that Minnesota can pull off an upset--the Big Ten has the opportunity for a MAJOR opening week if Minnesota can beat #2 TCU, Ohio State can win at Virginia Tech, Michigan can win at Utah, Nebraska can beat BYU, and if Wisconsin can beat #3 Alabama--I don't think Minnesota will do it. TCU is just loaded across the board and Minnesota needs to find a way to be explosive because TCU is going to put up the points. I could see this game staying close for a half, maybe three quarters before TCU pulls away.

TCU 34

Minnesota 20
