Hill’s crew handled the game that these two teams played at U. Bank Stadium just three weeks ago, a 27-24 Minnesota victory. I’m not sure if that’s normal or if it’s ever happened before, but it’s happening in this one. Weather Info Obviously, with this one being played indoors at U. Bank Stadium, the weather will not be a factor for the game. If you’re traveling or engaging in any pre-game activities, it should be nice enough weather for it according to our friends from WeatherNation. Temperatures will be in the upper 30s/lower 40s by kickoff with winds coming out of the southeast at around 10 miles/hour. Betting Info According to our friends at the DraftKings Sportsbook, the Vikings remain a three-point favorite in this one, which is precisely where they’ve been since the lines opened earlier in the week.
Kickoff is set for 2100Z, which works out to 2200L for everyone in Central Europe, 0000L on Monday morning for those on Arabian Standard Time, and 0600L on Monday morning for fans in Japan and Korea. Radio Info As usual, the Vikings Radio Network affiliates throughout the upper midwest will be carrying this one. If you’re not sure who the affiliates in your area are, feel free to check the link for the full list.
As the middle game, things will kick off at 3:30 PM Central time, which is not the ideal time but, hey, it could be worse. This game will be broadcast on FOX affiliates around the country, including KMSP-9 in the Twin Cities. No need for a map this week, as this one will be the only game in town during this time slot. For our men and women serving in uniform overseas, this game will be aired LIVE on the American Forces Network, specifically on AFN Sports.
