Matchup

Recap

Minnesota pulled away from Nebraska in a commanding 24-6 home victory at Huntington Bank Stadium. After trailing 3-0 early, the Golden Gophers seized control when Drake Lindsey scored on a 1-yard run and later connected with Le'Meke Brockington for a 20-yard touchdown pass. Minnesota's defense completely shut down the Cornhuskers in the second half, limiting Nebraska to just two field goals for the entire game as Darius Taylor's fourth-quarter touchdown run put the contest out of reach.
