Minnesota Gophers' trip to Penn State in jeopardy due to FAA ground stop

The Minnesota Gophers were unable to depart Minneapolis for their game against Penn State due to a nationwide FAA ground stop affecting all flights. Originally scheduled for Saturday at 6 p.m. CT, the game now faces potential rescheduling after the Gophers' plane was grounded. Minnesota was coming off a 34-20 loss to UCLA, and the Governor’s Victory Bell is on the line after they lost to Penn State in 2024. The Gophers returned to campus and hope to fly out Saturday morning, but transportation options are limited amidst the ongoing FAA restrictions.
