One of the most complete games of the Hazell era came last year at Minnesota. A week after pushing Michigan State for four quarters the Boilers went to Minneapolis and got involved in a bit of a shootout with the Golden Gophers. After 17 straight points in the second quarter the Boilers led 31-20 at halftime and 38-29 late in the third quarter. After that, two plays defined the game. First, with 8:30 left and the boilers clinging to a 38-36 lead Austin Appleby fumbled before coming up short on fourth and one from the Gopher 30 yard line.
