Minnesota Football: RoWINg to Michigan - Opponent Preview

The Minnesota Golden Gophers (3-2) will host the No. 2-ranked Michigan Wolverines (5-0) at Huntington Bank Stadium on Saturday at 6:30 p.m. CT in a battle for the Little Brown Jug.

Can Michigan score on offense?

The Wolverines rank 40th nationally in rushing offense (184 rushing yards per game), 73rd in passing offense (227.4 passing yards per game), and 39th in scoring (34.4 points per game).

The passing offense might look unremarkable on paper, but I can assure you that is not the case. Quarterback J.J. McCarthy has been efficient through their first five games.
