Minnesota and Nebraska Meet for First Matchup

Minnesota defeated host Nebraska, 20-12, in the programs' first meeting. The win capped a 10-0-2 season for the Gophers.

Nebraska's unbeaten run came to an end as the Cornhuskers hosted Minnesota in the first game of what would later become a frequent rivalry. The Gophers were a national powerhouse at the time, and the 12 points scored by Nebraska were more than all other Golden Gophers opponents in 1900 combined.
