After back-to-back eight-win seasons, the Gophers have one of the toughest schedules in the Big Ten this year, which includes non-conference games against TCU and Colorado State.
The Big Ten season also features a matchup with defending National Champion Ohio State along with home games against Nebraska and Wisconsin.
After originally setting the over/under for number of wins for the Gophers at 5.5, Bovada has bumped it up to 6.
