The Minnesota Golden Gophers took care of business against the Miami (Ohio) RedHawks, dropping their Mid-American Conference opponent 26-3 to close out the non-conference schedule with an unblemished 3-0 record. Not bad, eh?
As per tradition, let’s break the game down into arbitrary designations.
The Elite
Tyler Johnson. After being held in check for the most part against Fresno State, the Gophers’ top wide receiver was back to doing what he does best, hauling in nine receptions for 133 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He did have a couple drops, but I’ll take a ratio of three touchdowns to two drops any game.
