John Hankinson throws a 37-yard touchdown pass to a terrific two-way player. A senior from Port Arthur, Texas, he was a consensus 1st team All-American as a defensive end who went on to a 9-year NFL career in which he played in 2 Super Bowls, the first one vs. Green Bay and the other vs. the Vikings. He died in a bizarre traffic accident in 1997. Can you name him?
The Gophers also get 2 short touchdown runs from a promising sophomore back from Fridley whose career woul be blighted by injury. Can you name him?
