WATCH: Minnesota’s Tyler Johnson makes incredible game-winning TD grab vs. Georgia Southern
Published:
Minnesota was 2-0 coming into Week 3 and the Golden Gophers hadn’t impressed too many people.
In Week 1, the team beat South Dakota State 28-21. Then in Week 2, they went to Fresno State and won a double overtime game 38-35. Nothing had been easy.
In Week 3, that remained the same. Minnesota was supposed to beat Georgia Southern rather soundly. Did that happen, though? Of course not.
With 3:47 left in the game, Minnesota trailed 32-28. It needed a TD to win.
