per Dienhart:

Play this again: Minnesota rallied from a 24-14 deficit midway through the third quarter to win 28-24 at Nebraska. It was the Gophers’ first win in Lincoln since 1960. The best part came with Minnesota clinging to a 28-24 lead with less than two minutes to play, when CB Briean Boddy-Calhoun ripped the ball out of De’Mornay Pierson-El’s hands at the Minnesota 2-yard line to preserve victory. Unreal.

Trending:

Minnesota. The Gophers’ win at Nebraska means they can claim the West title and go to the Big Ten title game with a victory next week at Wisconsin. It was Minnesota’s first road win against a Top 25 opponent in 21 games (since 2000). It’s also the Gophers’ second straight win over the Huskers. And Minnesota won despite losing star RB David Cobb to injury in the third quarter.
