O'Brien, Herbers and Morgan break down the historic hold at Rutgers

Minnesota holder Casey O'Brien made history last season when he played in the Maroon and Gold's victory at Rutgers. O'Brien, who is a multiple-time cancer survivor, made his collegiate debut against the Scarlet Knights and held on three point-after attempts. 

The Big Ten Network, which broadcast the game, recently caught up with O'Brien and teammates Jacob Herbers and Tanner Morgan to discuss the historic holds. 

You can watch all three players break down the hold in this 13-minute, player-led interview
