By The Numbers: Gophers head into conference play undefeated after convincing win over Miami (OH)

It was hot. It was humid. It was win No. 3 for the Gophers football team at TCF Bank Stadium on Saturday afternoon after a convincing 26-3 victory over Miami (OH). The Gophers special teams showed up in a big way all day long and Carter Coughlin and the defense made key plays to put the offense in a great position to score. The offense proceeded without Rodney Smith who is out for the year and freshman Bryce Williams stepped up in a huge way on the rushing attack in Smith’s absence. Tyler Johnson continues to show the nation that he deserves to play on Sunday’s and the Gophers look to be in good shape as the team heads into Big Ten play next weekend in Maryland.
