per Sandell:

In four seasons, head coach Jerry Kill has brought new life to a once wayward program and delivered two consecutive eight-win seasons. But in the aftermath of Saturday's game, with the shot at a division title seemingly in their grasp, the loss was especially hard to swallow for the Gophers.

"We had an opportunity. We're close on a lot of things, not that far away, but being close only counts in horseshoes," Kill said. "We just didn't get it done, so we are disappointed. There's no question we've come a long ways (as a program), but we still have a ways to go."
