Minnesota spoils Rutgers Football Homecoming, 42-7.

Another Saturday, another huge point spread as Rutgers hosted the undefeated Minnesota Golden Gophers. PJ Fleck’s squad arrived in Piscataway looking for their first 7-0 start since 1960. Right around kickoff, Minnesota learned undefeated Wisconsin had been majorly upset on a last second field goal by Illinois. As a result a win would move the Golden Gophers into sole possession of first place in the Big Ten West Division.

Rutgers got the ball first and did register one first down, including a pass from Johnny Langan to Eddie Lewis for 5 yards.
