per the Daily:
Conference play is set to begin, and Minnesota is looking to stay undefeated.
The Gophers have a better chance of doing that with their top-two running backs returning, and it looks like they will win Saturday.
Head coach P.J. Fleck told reporters Monday that both Rodney Smith and Shannon Brooks should be ready to play Saturday.
Both backs missed time in the last game. Brooks suited up but didn't play, and Smith played in the first half before falling to injury at the end of the half, getting no play time in the second half.
Minnesota went to Maryland last year and won 31-10, and it was quarterback Conor Rhoda’s first collegiate start.
“I think I’m more fine-tuned on the little things now,” Rhoda said. “I don’t think there’s a huge difference necessarily, just straight skill level from where I was [this time last year].”
