Per Marcus:

Fumbling focus​

Junior wide receiver Michael Brown-Stephens had his head down after a fumble early in Saturday's win vs. Western Illinois, but he moved on quickly after his teammates picked him up walking off the field.

On the game-opening drive, Brown-Stephens caught an 18-yard pass from Morgan, but a 2-yard catch on the ensuing play ended with his losing the football.

"Forget about it," Brown-Stephens heard from teammates. "Go make the most out of the next play."

And the Gophers offense did just that with 62 points and 679 total yards. He finished with three catches for 55 yards, including a 35-yarder.

"But I have to do a better job taking care of the ball," Brown-Stephens said. "That's been a big point of emphasis this week, especially for the wide outs."

Poised and calm, Gophers back-up quarterback Athan Kaliakmanis comes through in his cameo

Kaliakmanis, a reserve behind Tanner Morgan, got the chance to show his talent Saturday in the team's blowout win against Western Illinois.

[Stuff]

Hopefully get this stuff corrected and out of our system before B1G play. Won't be able to afford costly mistakes against Iowa and others.

True. Iowa scoop and score would be how they'd score a touchdown against us.
