Gophers Golden in Nebraska

The last time the Gophers beat the Cornhuskers AT Nebraska? 1960.

I keep waiting for the Gophers to suddenly realize that they are from Minnesota and start playing as if they belong here. But that hasn't happened yet. I admit I turned off the TV after that blocked field goal attempt that was ran back for a touchdown. But I watched a good hour at the end, and THAT ENDING was spectacular.

Bottom line: They beat Wisconsin next week and they are in the Big Ten Championship game.

Coach Kill and his staff are to be congratulated.

Did you guys happen to see that the all-time rushing yards in a game record was broken AGAIN yesterday after having been broken just last weekend? It now stands at 427 yards. And much like last weekend the back didn't even play much in the fourth quarter. He didn't start the game either. And he's just a freshman! We might be hearing a lot more about Oklahoma's Samaje Perine in the years ahead.
