per Greder:
After removing his redshirt against Northwestern and playing late against Purdue, backup quarterback Demry Croft didn't play in Minnesota's most recent game, a 48-25 loss to Nebraska on Oct. 17.
"We wanted to use him in the Nebraska game, but there wasn't a point in time where we felt like, 'OK, this is the right time to do it,' " offensive coordinator Matt Limegrover said Tuesday. "That's always the challenge."
Starter Mitch Leidner was 16 for 17 passing for 156 yards and a touchdown in the first half and finished the game with career highs in completions (26) and yards (301).
"One of the things that we're working on this week is having some things where we can get them revolved," Limegrover said. "If Mitch continues, it's hard. It's hard to pull a guy out when you feel like there are things that are going right. But we've got to make sure that we have the plan in place and feel comfortable doing that when the time basically presents itself."
