Minnesota Football: Gophers are headed to the Quick Lane Bowl

The Minnesota Golden Gophers (5-7) have a date with the Bowling Green Falcons (7-5) in the Quick Lane Bowl on Tuesday, Dec. 26, in Detroit, Michigan. Ford Field is practically a second home for the Gophers at this point, as this will be the program’s third trip to the Quick Lane Bowl in the last 10 years. Minnesota first defeated Central Michigan, 21-14, in the 2015 Quick Lane Bowl, having earned a bowl invite in spite of a 5-7 regular season record. They returned to the Motor City in 2018 under head coach P.J. Fleck, rolling past Georgia Tech, 34-10.
