ESPN’s SP+ has a score prediction as Michigan and Minnesota will battle it out this Saturday as the Wolverines continue their quest for the College Football Playoff, while the Golden Gophers look for a big upset.

Michigan has looked dominant all season, and the Wolverines aren’t looking to slow down anytime soon. Last week, they cruised past Nebraska 45-7. This week, Michigan will be looking for another dominant performance as they try to prove themselves as the top team in the nation.

It’s been a rocky season for the Golden Gophers, starting 3-2 with losses to North Carolina and Northwestern. While an upset win is not likely, if Minnesota can pull it off, it could change the trajectory of the season.

Ahead of the game, ESPN’s SP+ has made its prediction for the matchup. ESPN’s SP+ is a predictive measure that looks at the most predictable aspects of football to formulate its pick.
