After an impressive 3-0 start to the season, P.J. Fleck and Co. were woken up quickly after a 42-13 loss to Maryland on Saturday afternoon. Zack Annexstad threw his first two interceptions in a Gophers uniform and Antoine Winfield Jr. went down early, remaining sidelined the rest of the game. Missed tackles and dropped passes were abundant and showed Minnesota’s coaching staff of the work that needs to be done heading into the bye week. The Gophers return back to TCF Bank Stadium on Oct. 6 for their homecoming game against the Iowa Hawkeyes.
5.3: Yards per throw for freshman walk-on Zack Annexstad in his first road game for the Gophers.
