(Minneapolis, MN) — The University of Minnesota football team opens the regular season tonight (Thursday 7 p-m) against number-four Ohio State on national television.
Fans will be able to see the Golden Gophers for the first time in nearly two years at the newly named Huntington Bank Stadium.
Minnesota coach P-J Fleck says we’re ready to kick it off and everybody in the country is ready to kick some football off and get that type of normalcy back.
Fleck says he knows his team is an underdog to the Buckeyes but they’re going into the game with confidence. The Gophers last beat Ohio State in Minneapolis in 1981.
