There is a good chance that Wake, Dook, and UVA all end up rating out as worse than Minnesota by the end of the season. That’s more of testament to how bad those 3 ACC teams are than a ringing endorsement of Minnesota though. Most power ratings have Minnesota 10-20 spots higher than those teams right now, but of course it’s still early and there’s no telling how the rest of the season will shake out.They were predicted to finish 15 out of 18 in the Big 10 and that was before Indiana and Michigan State looked good. There is a decent shot they finish around UCLA and Purdue at the bottom of the league.
Maybe JMU or Wake is worse, but it is close.
As for this week, it’s possible that JMU will be a tough out for us. The fact that we’re only favored by 10 against them at home says that it’s not just our fans that have serious concerns about our offense.
