A near perfect day with the sun shining and the Rocky Mountains as the backdrop for a college football tilt between your Golden Gophers and Colorado. The day was so perfect, one could almost forget there was a game to be played. Of course there was and the perfection continued for your Gopher football team (nearly). As the Gophers notched a road, shutout win over Colorado 30-0.
The Gophers earned their first road shutout against a Power-5 opponent for the first time in 44 years. The last such event was a 21-0 win at Illinois in 1977.
