Minnesota Football vs Penn State: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

Well, that sucked.

The Minnesota Golden Gophers led 13-3 at halftime but ended up suffering a gut-wrenching 29-26 overtime loss to the Penn State Nittany Lions on Saturday. The Gophers looked like they would escape State College with a solid Big Ten road win after an impressive first half, but a third quarter collapse ultimately opened the door for the Nittany Lions to send the Gophers back to Minneapolis with a devastating loss.

Let’s take a look at the good, the bad, and the ugly -- emphasis on the ugly.
