WATCH: Minnesota uses trick play to set up scoring drive vs. Indiana

Halloween is still a few days away, but P.J. Fleck is still incorporating some tricks into his offense.

On Minnesota’s opening drive against Indiana on Friday night, the Gophers ran a flea flicker on first down play. It was just the second play of the game for the offense and the result was a 25-yard reception for Rashod Bateman.

It created some early momentum for Minnesota.

The completion was also a nice confidence booster for Tanner Morgan, a redshirt freshman making the first start of his career.

Minnesota’s flea flicker was a huge part of the Gophers’ six-play, 77-yard drive that resulted in a touchdown.

Minnesota is trying to snap a four-game losing streak and notch its first B1G win of the season.
