Loved how Morgan gave the game ball to Johnson after the final kneel down.

Johnson deserved it. As long as he can control the drops he's going to have a nice long NFL career.

He's lucky we don't play them next year, unless it's for the Big 10 Championship.

That would be the one way we could still lose the game...

I know! I was being facetious. And trying to hook SMF.

I don't see how they could give it to anyone, but Johnson. I love Ibraham though. He's the consummate.... runs like he's mad at the turf... type runner.

After 2 big games where the Gophers got dominated, they turned the page and beat a perennial top 15 team.

Receivers and running backs haven. Ibrahim needs a running partner, keep churning out the WR's.

A year ago the QB spot was up for grabs. Morgan has it and that's a good thing for 2020.

I love that it was the very next play after he was being a jackass on the sideline.

He also bobbled at least 2 more punts. Dude has very suspect hands.

I've been waiting all year for that huge line to physically dominate. They are big. They are strong. They have been pretty effective all year, but they never had that game where they just pounded the other line into submission. They picked a great game to do it and with Fa'alele out with an injury no less.

And credit to Ibrahim as well. Kid was not going to be denied any yards today, nor was he going to let himself be tackled easily.

He was a human battering ram. I couldn't believe a couple of the plays were it looked like Ibraham's progress was stopped, but he kept churning his legs and the blockers just plowed him forward for several more yards. Like I said, ran like he was mad at the grass. The Auburn defense was just beaten down and out of gas by that last drive.
