Pair of brilliant grabs, including contested catch by Chris Autman-Bell, powers Gophers TD
Minnesota is clicking vs. Indiana as the Gophers look to head into the season-ending rivalry against Wisconsin with a win.
In the third quarter, it was a pair of brilliant catches that led to the latest score with Tanner Morgan dropping in some beautiful passes. The first one was a great throw by Morgan down the sideline to Dylan Wright.
The catch went for 34 yards with Wright showcasing impressive concentration on what was a perfectly placed ball from Morgan:
The catch was great, but we want to focus on the absolute dime from Tanner Morgan. 🎯@T_morg2 // @GopherFootball pic.twitter.com/mEKzRhFMMT

To finish that drive, Morgan targeted Chris Autman-Bell in a one-on-one situation in the end zone. It is a play that Autman-Bell has made a habit of making throughout his career, and he beat the defensive back for his 2nd score of the day.
Fun fact: They aren’t 50-50 balls when thrown to CAB. 🙌@chrisautmanbell // @GopherFootball pic.twitter.com/FHahzY6oVO
