There were several impressive highlights in the game, and we have them all for you right here!
Running back Rodrick Williams Jr. had the first big play of the day, breaking tackle after tackled on his way to a 12-yard touchdown run up the middle. Williams Jr. is expected to compete for the starting running back role, which is up for grabs after the graduation of David Cobb.
Check out Williams Jr.'s run here.
Rodrick Williams Jr. is tough to bring down, and this impressive @GopherFootball TD run is your evidence. http://t.co/IPhF9Ur119
