My first pass on the game was MIN - pts.My logic was if the QB difference was that much, it should have moved a month ago when it was announced. These aren't big chunk line moves, just a steady stream, which I though was the public reading bowls guides and seeing a 5-7 record and reacting accordingly. I know your reasons for taking BG were different, that's just how I viewed the public.
I changed my mind when:
- I read about the QB inexperience (experienced in years, not in playing time).
- MIN had a horrible November. They went from controlling the BIG10 West to last in the West with 4 straight losses. I just thought their momentum was in a downard spiral.
- BG playing simlar strength teams well.
