Even though I am just now thawing out a day later, the Illinois game was a lot of fun. I almost forgot what it was like to celebrate a victory after four straight losses. This game was a total tale of two halves offensively for the Gophers. They gained only one yard in the 3rd quarter. Yes you read that correctly, they only gained one yard, yet thanks to Shannon Brooks housing a 75 yard touchdown in the 4th quarter they held onto win. Defensively wasn't the greatest day but they made plays when they had to. It was the epitome of a bend but don't break defense.
