Minnesota @ California picks

Minnesota has one weakness: its offensive line. That will be a massive worry against the top of the Big Ten, but if an opponent does not have a proven front-seven, faith should be put in the Gophers this season. The late game on the West Coast may not be ideal, but until Minnesota stumbles, PJ Fleck has his locker room's attention. They know this is one of the most complete teams he has had in nearly a decade in the Twin Cities.
