Total

The Minnesota Golden Gophers will beat the Maryland Terrapins. The Maryland Terrapins will cover the spread, and the total will go under.

Analyzing the offensive capabilities of both teams, we see that Minnesota puts up an average of 71.8 points per game, while Maryland has a slight edge at 72.5 points. However, the shooting efficiency tells a different story; the Golden Gophers have a more formidable field goal percentage at 45.8, compared to the Terrapins’ 40.2. This efficiency will likely play a critical role in establishing an early lead. Notably, Minnesota averages 17.8 assists per game, far outpacing Maryland’s 10.3. This ball movement suggests that the Gophers could produce better opportunities from both inside and outside the arc.

Rebounding numbers also favor Minnesota, with an average of 30.5 rebounds per game, lending to their ability to control possessions. Maryland, despite averaging slightly more rebounds at 31.8, seems to struggle generating good shot opportunities given their lower field goal percentage. While both teams may engage in a competitive back-and-forth, I anticipate a low-scoring affair, with total points likely falling under current projections.
