However, the Gophers offense was shut down by Penn State's defense in a three-and-out and the Nittany Lions carried that momentum on offense, going five plays for 57 yards before Nicholas Singleton rushed for a 12-yard touchdown to give Penn State their first lead of the night, 23-22.

The Gophers football team put up a valiant effort and had a chance to win the game in the final minutes, but ultimately it couldn't pull off the upset, falling 26-25 to No. 4 Penn State Saturday at Huntington Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

Penn State beats Minnesota 26-25 in a wild and competitive game. Tyler Warren was a critical offense weapon for the Nittany Lions with 8 catches for 102 yards. The #4 team in the country came from behind to secure a win and keep their hopes alive for a College Football Playoff invitation.
