Minnesota’s Antoine Winfield Jr. ran a punt back 75 yards for a touchdown. He didn’t just use his speed either, Winfield ran through New Mexico tacklers like they weren’t there.
The impressive run shows how the rest of the game went as Minnesota handed them a 48-10 beat down. You need to be able to tackle to play football.

It’s a good start for Minnesota who finished with a disappointing 5-7 record last year. P.J. Fleck is working his magic this season.
