Minnesota offense, defense show off brilliant catches in huge 3rd quarter vs. MSU
Minnesota is having a great productive game versus Michigan State on both sides of the ball.
Late in the third quarter, Minnesota got its third touchdown of the game off a great catch from tight end Nick Kallerup on a 6-yard reaching catch thrown by quarterback Tanner Morgan. This was the first career touchdown reception for Kallerup after playing 18 games for Minnesota in the past two seasons.
