After the Gophers’ season-opening loss to North Carolina, a rectangle fishbowl with orange goldfish sat in lobby at the Larson Football Performance Center. It was there to represent the famous line from “Ted Lasso” about how goldfish are the happiest creatures in the world because they have 10-second memories.

According to PFF, Aireontae Ersery and Kerry Brown were the top performers on offense and defense, respectively. Their continued emergence could help Minnesota as they go into a difficult stretch of their schedule beginning with next week's game at Michigan.
