per Randy:
This victory for the Gophers at Huntington Bank Stadium was a mixed bag of a little bit of everything, just like their season has been so far.
They've played well at times, as they did in the first half when they led Miami 21-3, and in the opener when they held leads of 14-10 at halftime and 21-17 in the third quarter against Ohio State.
They've been inconsistent at times, as their passing game was in the second half Saturday when it gained no yards and saw all six of Morgan's passes fall incomplete.
Through two games, the Gophers are 1-1, a record that most observers would have expected. They'll face their next test at Colorado this coming Saturday against a Buffaloes team that just took No. 5 Texas A&M to the wire before losing 10-7 in Denver. Playing a Power Five opponent on the road provides an added challenge for a Minnesota team looking to find consistency.

Gophers' strengths, weaknesses on display in tight win over Miami (Ohio)
The challenge of facing Colorado on the road is next for a Minnesota team that won with grit but showed flaws.
