Game Notes

Gophers stage an epic collapse, falling to the Wildcats 41-35.

Northwestern wins it on Zak Kustok's 45-yard TD pass to Sam Simmons on the final play after trailing 35-14. Asad Abdul-Khaliq's 2nd TD run opens a 35-14 lead for Minnesota late in the 3rd quarter, but the Gophers are unable to deal with the Wildcats' "Never let the clock run" offense.

Kustok's 13-yard TD pass to Simmons w/ 2:00 left in the 3rd quarter starts the rally. Kustok throws for 209 yards and 2 TDs, and adds 90 yards and 2 TDs on the ground, scoring a pair of TDs in the 4th quarter to tie it 35-35. Damien Anderson rushes for 230 yards and 2 TDs.
