per Sid:

Leidner completed four of six passes on the Gophers’ final winning 11-play, 78-yard drive for 42 yards. The drive ended with freshman Shannon Brooks scoring his second touchdown of the game on a 3-yard plunge with 30 seconds to go. Brooks ran for a total 82 yards, while Rodney Smith ran for 94.

“It feels good,” said Leidner, whom many fans and media members have wanted benched for true freshman Demry Croft. “I talked about it during the week about me never losing my confidence in myself. I’ve been a competitive kid my entire life, and at no point was I going to back down from any type of competition.

“To be in a situation like I was this past week and angry after the Kent State game and to bounced back, both myself and offensively as a unit, it’s huge for us.”
