The Illini game time has been "mostly" announced.
The Gophers now know when two of their games during the 2017 season will begin, as start times for Minnesota’s home game against Illinois and road game at Oregon State were announced today.
Minnesota’s 97th Homecoming game – but first with P.J. Fleck as head coach – will take place on Oct. 21 against Illinois. That game will start at either 2:30 p.m. or 3 p.m. An exact start time and broadcast information will be announced in the future.
The Gophers are 57-36-3 all-time in Homecoming games and have won their last three contests (39-38 victory against Purdue in 2014; 27-24 against Ohio in 2015 and 34-32 against Rutgers in 2016). Minnesota is 5-4-1 all-time against Illinois on Homecoming and the schools last met on Homecoming in 2007. The Gophers last beat Illinois on Homecoming in 2004, when they won 45-0.
Minnesota’s first road game under Fleck will take place on Sept. 9 at Oregon State. The game will kick at 9 p.m. CT and will be broadcast on FS1. Minnesota is 3-1 all-time against Oregon State with all four games previously being played in Minneapolis. The Gophers topped the Beavers 30-23 last season at TCF Bank Stadium to open the season.
Season tickets for the 2017 season are on sale now and can be purchased here.
