Adding a little blush to cover an otherwise ugly college football opener Thursday, Minnesota placekicker Dragan Keisch kicked a 47-yard field goal as time expired, giving the host Golden Gophers a 13-10 victory over Big Ten rival Nebraska.
The Cornhuskers, under new direction, still failed to close out a tight contest.
