The Minnesota Golden Gophers were clinging to a 31-26 lead over then No. 4-ranked Penn State in the fourth quarter. The Gophers had led nearly the entire game, but with less than three minutes left to play, the Nittany Lions were poised to put themselves ahead for good.

On 1st and 10 from his own 40-yard line, Penn State quarterback Sean Clifford found wide receiver Jahan Dotson open on a slant.
