Zoiks!


The Cats upset #20 Minnesota 24-17, with safety Brendan Smith returning a twice-tipped interception 48 yards for a touchdown with 12 seconds on the clock.

Mike "Demon Spawn" Kafka, subbing for injured started CJ Bacher, had a big day, rushing for 217 (!) yards and throwing a pair of touchdowns (we'll choose not to discuss the 2 INTs he threw).

With the win, the Cats resurrected their bowl hopes, advancing to 7-2 and assuring a bowl bid. With perennial patsy Michigan coming up on the schedule, the Cats seem gauranteed of an 8-win season and a quality bowl.
