TCU's Trevone Boykin thinking Heisman Trophy. But first, there's the Gophers

Texas Christian quarterback Trevone Boykin, a Heisman Trophy favorite, said he watched video of the Gophers' secondary all summer.

"I know they are going to come out with a good game plan, and (they) probably watched a few games where we didn't do some stuff so good," Boykin told reporters Tuesday in Fort Worth, Texas. "They're going to try to do the same thing."

Both teams replayed TCU's 30-7 rout of Minnesota last September in Fort Worth. The season-opening rematch between the Gophers and second-ranked Horned Frogs is Thursday night at TCF Bank Stadium.

Looking back on last year, Boykin credited the Gophers as being a "great team" that held his offense to a season-low point total in a 12-1 campaign.
