The Minnesota Golden Gophers came up short against the Michigan State Spartans in a 30-27 defeat on Saturday at TCF Bank Stadium, dropping their conference record to 0-3 as head coach P.J. Fleck continues to search for his first Big Ten win at Minnesota. The Spartans controlled the game through the first three quarters, before some late game heroics nearly saw the Gophers pull off an unthinkable comeback in the fourth quarter. It was ultimately for naught, but there was a surprising amount of positive takeaways from yet another winnable game that slipped through the Gophers’ grasp.
