Minnesota Football: #TBT Gophers vs Chippewas 1987

Gophers quarterback Rickey Foggie received mixed reviews on his comeback, but it was good enough to steer the Gophers to a 30-10 victory over Central Michigan Saturday night in the Metrodome.

Minnesota will take a 3-0 record into its Big Ten opener against Purdue next Saturday night in the Dome.

Foggie, coming off a two-game NCAA suspension, showed a running flair worthy of his nickname, "Sweet Feet." He gained 105 yards on 12 carries and scored on a 33-yard run.

His passing, however, was spotty: He was 8 of 16 for 73 yards and had two interceptions, the last setting up Central Michigan's only touchdown.
