The total points for Saturday’s Iowa-Minnesota game is the lowest for a college football game in 20 years, according to Caesars Sportsbook.

The point total was set at 32 points. Based on the spread, it is not expected to be a high-scoring game between these 2 teams.

Caesars Sportsbook revealed the historic point total and displayed all of the betting lines for the game. Minnesota is the -2.5 point favorite with the spread. On the money line, Minnesota is a slight favorite at -135. For Iowa, the game is in striking distance with the spread and the money line.

The Golden Gophers and Hawkeyes could shock some of the oddsmakers by scoring more than 32 points in total. In Minnesota’s last 3 games, the point totals against Rutgers, Nebraska, and Northwestern were 31 points, 33 points, and 34 points.

Aside from the 20-13 win over Nebraska, Minnesota carried the majority of the points against Rutgers and Northwestern. In Week 11, Minnesota blew out Northwestern in a 31-3 win.

Iowa scored 24 points in each of the last 2 games against Purdue and Wisconsin. It might be difficult for Iowa to score 24 points against a tough Minnesota defense. This will be a competitive game between 2 of the best teams in the B1G West.

Minnesota will host Iowa at 4 p.m. ET.
