Minnesota’s defenders thought they had tackled Iowa wide receiver Keagan Johnson. They hadn’t.

The freshman pass catcher hauled in a wide receiver screen on the left side of the field that appeared to have been well-defended by the Gopher defense. But then Johnson broke through a pair of tackles for a 27-yard touchdown that puts Iowa up 24-16 with 12:49 remaining in the game.
