2016 Holiday Bowl Line in Turmoil Following Sex Assault Allegations, Suspensions
With ten Minnesota football players suspended following a fresh investigation into an alleged sexual assault, the 2016 Holiday Bowl line has been in absolute flux. Now comes word that Gophers players may boycott this game. Stay tuned. What happens if this game gets suspended?
2016 Holiday Bowl Line Movement – Minnesota vs. Washington State
The Holiday Bowl line movement for the Minnesota-Washington State game had the Cougars go from being a -5.5 favorite to a -9 to -9.5 favorite in light of this scandal.
10 Golden Gophers Suspended and Won’t Play in Holiday Bowl
The same incident alleged to have occurred in September led to three-game suspensions of four of the players earlier this season and now they are benched again along with six of their teammates.
In an email to school supporters, university President Eric Kaler said the players will miss the Dec. 27 bowl game in San Diego. His message did not give the reason for the suspensions, citing the students' privacy rights.
"The need to take actions like this is incredibly disappointing," Kaler wrote.
The university announced the new suspensions Tuesday night without disclosing why and officials remained silent on the reason Wednesday.
The line had already moved to -7 by Tuesday and was at -9.5 by Wednesday morning.
