A balanced offense and a great defensive performance guided the Minnesota Golden Gophers to a win over Nebraska with a final score of 30-23. Tanner Morgan led the Gopher offense by completing 20 of 24 passes and Bryce Williams secured the game with a 56-yard touchdown late in the 4th quarter to propel the Gophers to their 4th win of the season.
Most Gopher games have a story, a clear line of what the overall narrative and story of the game was. But this game was different and hard to pin down what the story really was. It was a tale of two very different halves where Minnesota dominated the 1st and Nebraska moved at will in the 2nd.
