Ryan Day met with the media yesterday to recap the key happenings from a big road win over Washington and preview Saturday's matchup with P.J. Fleck's Minnesota Golden Gophers.
Minnesota comes into the matchup with a 3-1 record but the schedule hasn't exactly been a murderer's row featuring Buffalo (SP+ rank 104), Northwestern State (330!), Cal (77) and Rutgers (48).
A clear bottom-half team in the Big Ten, Minnesota has enjoyed some exciting play from redshirt freshman quarterback Drake Lindsey. On the other side of the ball, its defense has been central to the 3-1 start. The Gophers rank No.
