Gophers Mohamed Ibrahim had one of the best seasons ever for a Gopher freshman in 2018.
As a redshirt freshman in 2018, Mohamed Ibrahim rushed 202 times for 1,160 yards and nine touchdowns. His 1,160 yards were the second most ever for a Gopher and trailed only Minnesota legend Darrell Thompson, who rushed for 1,376 yards in 11 games in 1986. Ibrahim played in only 10 games in 2018, as he missed three with an injury.
Ibrahim rushed for more than 100 yards in five games last season to become the first freshman to do so since Laurence Maroney (five 100-yard games) in 2003 and he set a freshman single-game record with 224 yards against Georgia Tech (most by a Gopher in a single game since Maroney ran for 258 yards against Wisconsin in 2005) in the Quick Lane Bowl (12th-best rushing game in school history).
Ibrahim ended the season with a 5.74 yards per carry average, which ranks fifth all-time in school history (minimum 200 carries). Despite playing in only 10 games last season (and in his career), he ranks 42nd on Minnesota's career rushing list with 1,160 yards.
