Happy birthday, Goldy.
Minnesota is celebrating the birthday of its mascot in a big way, punishing Middle Tennessee in the first half at TCF Bank Stadium. And Gophers’ DB Jacob Huff wanted to get in on the action.
The Minnesota defender turned a Middle Tennessee interception into six points to help give the Gophers a sizeable halftime advantage.

Minnesota is sporting all-gold uniforms and an image of Goldy the Gopher on a new helmet for Saturday’s game. That was suppose to be the mascot’s gift.
But Goldy probably wouldn’t mind a huge win to move to 3-0, in addition.
