Gophers' 2025 homecoming game set for Oct. 11 against Purdue

Minnesota is coming off an 8-5 season in 2024, their fifth winning season in eight years under P.J. Fleck. Four of those losses came by one score, including defeats against North Carolina, Michigan, and Penn State by a combined six points. The Gophers capped the season with a win over Virginia Tech in the Duke's Mayo Bowl, improving Fleck's bowl record to 6-0. This past year's homecoming game was a blowout win over Maryland.
