It was a crazy game. Certainly would have been nice to win the game earlier, but it is a win. The number of strikeouts is a bit alarming, top of the order stuck out a lot.
He was a great Gopher, he had two of the all time best catches I have seen in my long time as a Gopher fan. The first was the one from ZA after a long scramble along the sideline and obviously the second was the catch in the bowl game at the back of the endzone, which is still unbelievable.
