Second Quarter
The Red Raiders lost another scoring chance when cornerback Antonio Huffman, who intercepted a Cupito pass on the Gophers 20, fumbled into the end zone on the return, allowing the Gophers to recover for a touchback. The Gophers took full advantage, going on a drive that culminated in a 14-yard TD pass from Cupito to Ernie Wheelwright.
Tech finally got on the board with 4:32 left in the quarter when Shannon Woods capped off a seven-play, 77-yard drive with a 1-yard TD run. The Gophers replied with an 81-yard drive ending in a 3-yard Cupito TD pass to Logan Payne with 32 seconds left. The first half ended with the Gophers ahead 35-7.
