The Gophers had scored 14 straight points to cut Michigan’s lead to 27-24 on Saturday when Matt Kingsbury was called offsides on an onside kick attempt with 1:37 remaining in the game. Minnesota had recovered the kick and would have had possession at the Wolverines’ 39.

The Gophers were left to ponder what might have been after staging a stirring fourth-quarter comeback in a 27-24 defeat against the Wolverines.

Gophers players Ethan Robinson, Jah Joyner, Darius Taylor and Max Brosmer react to the 27-24 loss to Michigan Saturday afternoon.
