Minnesota vs Penn State Prediction | College Basketball Betting Picks for the Big Ten Tournament
If you decide to wait until the next round to watch the Big Ten Tournament, I wouldn’t blame you. Here, we have two bad teams. The Gophers are a competitive team, but they’re a glutton for punishment. They only have two wins in their last 13 games. Penn State has lost four of their past five games, with their lone win coming against Northwestern.
The last Minnesota vs Penn State matchup on Feb. 12th was a blowout, with the Nittany Lions winning 67-46. However, the Gophers won by six points a few days prior.
Penn State will look to play at their tempo and concentrate on defense to win this game. They may, they may not, who cares. We’ll take the UNDER on the point total instead. I value my money too much to put it on either team to win a game, so I’ll bet both teams miss shots and try to lose the game for 40 minutes, leading to the under hitting once again.
Our college basketball betting Minnesota vs Penn State prediction tonight will be the point total going UNDER at BetUS.
For what it’s worth, the ESPN Matchup Predictor gives Penn State a 58.9% chance to win.
