The set-up: Minnesota is 5-0 and Boston College is 4-1. Minnesota won all three games in the inaugural Vancouver Showcase over this past week, most recently a solid 68-66 victory over Washington. Amir Coffey leads the way for the Gophers with 14.4 points per night. BC returns home off a successful 78-66 win over Loyola Illinois in a 2-0 sweep in the inaugural Fort Myers Tip-Off Classic in Florida.

The pick: Take it for what you will though, but the Gophers are 6-2 ATS in their last eight after a three games or more unbeaten streak, while BC is only 2-5 ATS in its last seven following a SU win. I like Coffey and company to pull off the minor upset here.
