Minnesota heads to Colorado, looking for its second win of the season after beating Miami (Ohio) last Saturday. With Mo Ibrahim out for the season, Trey Potts carried the Gophers against the Redhawks with 34 carries for 178 yards and two touchdowns.

Fleck talked about Potts taking over the Minnesota run game, Tanner Morgan running more in the read-option, showing resilience in a win over Miami (Ohio) and the defense making strides since losing to Ohio State.
