Good gawd!! Why would bettors take Minnesota on what is essentially a home field advantage point spread!? I'd be on MSU like flies on garbage.
We're playing at home against a defense that can't defend the zone read and all we do is zone read.
They are coming off of a super emotional win and have to play as on the road at night.
Take away our home field advantage and they are a touchdown better than us with all of that considered.
That sounds about right to me.
That said, I would also take MSU because I'm not sure that we're going to be able to defend against their receivers.
I miss Claeys

Also he is still unemployed. If he was such a great coach that would not be the case.
This is a really stupid take. Who had an open job for him in early January? If he's still unemployed for the 2018 season, your point will become valid.

Well Wake Forest took his DC or over him.
I'd be willing to bet my annual salary that Claeys will not be the Head Coach for a P5 school in 2018. Would he ever have become a HC if Kill didn't have health issues? Give me a break, others from the staff were able to find a job.

"Wake Forest took his DC" is the accurate part of that post. Over him? You think Claeys and Sawvel both applied and they took Sawvel? I very much doubt that was the case. Going to Wake Forest was essentially a lateral move for Sawvel (1 year as a DC), while it would be a big step down for Claeys with decades of DC experience and HC experience in the Big Ten, and having earned far more over his career than Sawvel. A Wake Forest-type job is about the best Sawvel could hope for, and luckily for him it was available right away - he was smart to take it. Claeys earned multiple millions in his 6 years at Minnesota and could afford to be more selective. Does he want to take a Power 5 DC job? Does he want to go down to low-level FBS (or more likely FCS) and get a head coaching job again? I don't know, and neither do you. Taking any available job when he could easily retire if he wants would be short-sighted and stupid. I know the majority of posters here hate Claeys and resent his existence, but I think even his biggest detractors wouldn't call him stupid.

Ya, I miss how Claeys' defense gave up 118 points through the first 5 games last year and Flecks, without a starting defensive backfield the last 2 games, has given up 79 points through the first 5 games (7 of those given up by a pic 6).

Reports today say Connelly, Thomas, Howard, Winfield all out vs MSU. The line will only get worse.
