per the Post Standard:
Best unit
Offensive line
Given how effectively the Gophers have maintained their rushing attack despite going through three starting tailbacks because of injuries, this is really the most obvious option. Minnesota is big up front, and despite some turnover at three of the line positions over the course of the season, the Golden Gophers have still rushed for more than 200 yards per game.
What Minnesota does
Run, run, run
The Golden Gophers have nine games with at least 40 rushing attempts and have run it at least 30 times in all but one of their games this season.
Not once has Minnesota thrown more than it has run; its season-low for rushing attempts is 27 against Iowa, while its season-high for passes is 26 against Indiana.
