The Boilermakers are 0-6 against Minnesota at Huntington Bank Stadium
Burton averaged 5.7 yards per attempt and that doesn’t compare to O’Connell’s 7.5 average this season and 8.4 last year. If Burton is under center, the Boilermakers will need to push the ball down the field more to force the Gophers away from the line of scrimmage. Whether it’s O’Connell or Burton, tight end Payne Durham must return to his Syracuse level of production, making nine receptions for 83 yards and two TDs.
Mitchell Fineran has hit a slump, missing two of his last three field goal attempts, but the fifth-year senior endured a similar stretch last season before making 14 of his last 15 during the final five games. Jack Ansell continues to punt with authority, averaging 55.3 yards on three attempts last week. Still waiting for a breakthrough from Jones in the return game. The Gophers have punted a nation-low three times – one in each of the first three games – and didn’t punt last week at MSU.
