Each week, the Gophers continue to show they can beat teams in a variety of different ways. When opponents stack the box and send pressure, the offense counters with quick run-pass option (RPO) or play-action passes. After getting beat through the air, teams often need to play more coverage or deploy two-deep safety looks. This was even more apparent in the Gophers' 52-10 win over Maryland.
