Minnesota pummels Miami football
Through two weeks of play, nothing had gone the way of Miami football. That trend held up this Saturday when the Minnesota Golden Gophers defeated the RedHawks at TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis by a score of 26-3.
A loss on the scoreboard was somewhat predictable — the bettors in Vegas liked the Gophers by nearly two touchdowns. Unforeseen was the physical toll Saturday’s blowout had on the still winless Miami RedHawks (0-3).
Most significantly, senior wide receiver James Gardner left the game early due to injury Saturday. According to Miami head coach Chuck Martin, his season is likely over.
