Conference has a three-step process for fans going on playing surfaces and the U appears to be first-time offender.

Minnesota's 24-17 win over No. 11 USC was its first home victory over a ranked opponent since 2021 against Wisconsin and only its third since P.J. Fleck took over the program in 2017. In true college football fashion, the Gophers' crowd took the opportunity to storm the field and celebrate with their home team immediately after the clock hit zero.

Minnesota made a gutsy call -- and benefitted from video review -- to earn a 24-17 upset win against No. 11 USC on Saturday. On fourth-and-goal from inside USC's 1-yard line, and with less than 1 minute to play, the Gophers lined up to go for it instead of kicking a go-ahead field goal.
