Minnesota lost to Northwestern today 39-0. One week after their best performance of the season, Minnesota played their worst game of the season. The team was beat in all three phases, four if you count intangibles like turnover luck.
The team did not deserve to wear Goldy on their helmets.
I’m not really sure what else to write about in this recap. More so than the Michigan game, everything went wrong for the Gophers against a team they were competitive against on paper. A sampling:
- Through three quarters Demry Croft was 2/11 with 3 interceptions and his receivers had dropped 4 passes.
