The Minnesota Golden Gophers (4-2) have lost two straight now after traveling to Champaign to get pushed around by the No. 24-ranked Illinois Fighting Illini (6-1) in a 26-14 loss.
The Elite
Mohamed Ibrahim. Against the third-ranked run defense in the country, Ibrahim rushed for 127 yards and a touchdown, accounting for 70% of the Gophers’ total yards on offense and extending his streak of consecutive games with 100+ rushing yards to 14. This offense does not deserve Ibrahim, and Ibrahim deserves better than this offense.
