per Rossow:
The Gophers were 6.5-point underdogs for their Holiday Bowl matchup with Washington State as of Sunday afternoon, when the Maroon-and-Gold wrapped up its second practice preparing for the Cougars.
Spotting only a touchdown might still be Vegas oddsmakers overestimating Minnesota’s ability to score with the high-flying Cougars, but judging by the team’s post-practice sentiments, the Gophers believe there’s one way to upset their opponents from the Palouse later this month.
They must get physical in San Diego.
“We want to be a tough, physical team and show them what the Big Ten’s all about,” said Gophers quarterback Mitch Leidner. “That’s kind of the mentality we have going into the game is to be able to hopefully overpower these guys.”
