MINNEAPOLIS -- When Emmitt Carpenter missed a 34-yard field goal wide right in the second quarter on Saturday, Minnesota was already leading 21-10 and was having the expected success against Rutgers porous defense.While the Golden Gophers were driving at will on offense as big favorites at home, Carpenter knew he would be needed again. In a bit of a surprise, Carpenters time would be with 10 seconds left.Carpenter connected for a 28-yard field goal with 10 seconds remaining and Minnesota survived for a 34-32 victory against the Scarlet Knights.After that missed kick in the first half, I thought about it for a little bit just to kind of learn from the experience and what I did wrong, and then just kind of clean the slate, Carpenter said of getting another chance after his miss. I knew that my name would be called again at some point in the game. I just had to respond for that.The Gophers scored touchdowns on their first three possessions for a 21-0 lead against Rutgers, which entered the game allowing the most points per game and second-most yards per game in Big Ten play.We had a great week of practice and we come out of the gates, Minnesota coach Tracy Claeys said. We didnt handle that lead for whatever reason.Rodney Smith had a 94-yard kickoff return for a touchdown and ran for 111 yards and a touchdown for the Gophers (5-2, 2-2 Big Ten). Mitch Leidner returned after missing one game with a concussion and was 11-of-18 passing for 156 yards and an interception.Rutgers cornerback Damon Hayes intercepted Leidner and returned it 55 yards for a touchdown with just over six minutes left in the third quarter, but Knights kicker David Bongaura couldnt tie the game when he missed the PAT.Smith took Bongauras ensuing kickoff and raced down the home sideline for the first kickoff return for a touchdown by a Minnesota player since Jalen Myrick in 2014.Giovanni Rescigno was 22 of 38 for 220 yards passing in making his first start for Rutgers (2-6, 0-5). Rescigno threw three touchdown passes and two interceptions for the Knights, who had scored 14 points in four conference games prior to Saturday.A lot of heart, a lot of spirit; he made a lot of plays, coach Chris Ash said of Rescigno. Im really happy for the kid and really excited about what he can do as we move forward.Bongaura made a 39-yard field goal with four minutes left, but Minnesota went 59 yards in 13 plays to set up Carpenters game-winner. Smith had 25 yards rushing, including a 3-yard run on third down, spinning away from defenders twice for a first down.I kind of get the feel when the offense needs a spark, and we knew what we had to do to win the game, Smith said.Shannon Brooks had 22 carries for 87 yards as the Gophers ran for 243 yards. Rutgers had allowed an average of 328 rushing yards in four previous Big Ten games.I feel for them, Ash said. Were going to get better. Well get over that hump. I dont know when its going to be, but well get over that hump. Theres no quit in these guys. The attitudes extremely high.Minnesota linebacker Jack Lynn was ejected in the second half for targeting when he lowered his shoulder and hit receiver Jawuan Harris.THE TAKEAWAYRUTGERS: Despite the two interceptions, Rescigno has given the Knights a spark at quarterback. With the Rescigno using his arm and legs (11 carries for 26 yards), Rutgers had its most impressive offensive performance of the season in Big Ten play.MINNESOTA: The Gophers defense entered the game with the fifth-ranked defense in Big Ten play. But Minnesota was shaky against the relatively unknown Rescigno and gave up 372 total yards.UP NEXTRUTGERS: Finally gets its bye week before hosting Indiana on Nov. 5.Minnesota: The Gophers go on the road at Illinois on Oct. 29.

In the lead up - which seemed to begin the moment Mike Geiger blew the whistle in Houston last Thursday night - the Impact rumour mill went into overdrive. The speculation went into meltdown mode, of the golden nugget variety. The legendary horse is gone, and with him the crowds that frequently visited the barn with no notice, searching for a glimpse at greatness. More than a year has gone by since American Pharoah left trainer Bob Bafferts stable for a stud career after a historic 2015 season of winning the Triple Crown and the Breeders Cup Classic.There has been no letdown for Baffert in 2016. Through Tuesday, Bafferts runners have earned $16.3 million, not far behind the $17.4 million earned in 2015. Arrogate, the winner of the Travers Stakes at Saratoga in August and the BC Classic at Santa Anita last month, has led a barn that could challenge the 2015 earnings figure in the coming weeks.After last year, and losing Pharoah, it was an exciting year, and youre wondering if youll get your hands on another superstar like that, Baffert said on a recent morning at Santa Anita. For two months, it was sad not having him around. Every day, there was excitement.Here comes Arrogate. He puts a pep back in everyones step.Arrogate will not race again this year; his next start is expected to be the $12 million Pegasus World Cup at Gulfstream Park on Jan. 28. For the rest of this month, Baffert has runners in several leading stakes in Southern California, beginning with two $300,000 races for 2-year-olds at Los Alamitos on Saturday - the Starlet Stakes and the Los Alamitos CashCall Futurity.Mastery, the undefeated winner of the Grade 3 Bob Hope Stakes at Del Mar last month, will be favored in the Grade 1 Los Alamitos Futurity at 1-1/16 miles. Baffert is also planning to start Show Me Da Lute, the winner of a maiden race at 1-1/16 miles at Santa Anita on Oct. 29.In the Grade 1 Starlet Stakes at 1-1/16 miles, Baffert has the likely favorite in American Gal, who was third in the Breeders Cup Juvenile Fillies at Santa Anita on Nov. 5. Fact of Life, second in an allowance race at seven furlongs at Del Mar last moonth, is another candidate for the Starlet.ddddddddddddaffert has more candidates than those runners but said this week that he was content having two starters in each race.I only have two bridles down there, so I can only run two, he said in his typical wisecracking style. We keep a tight ship.The stable has a strong team of 2-year-olds, including two sharp winners in recent weeks -- Beach Bum, a maiden-race winner at Santa Anita on Nov. 6, and American Anthem, who won a maiden race at Del Mar last Saturday in his debut. American Anthem closed 3-1/2 lengths in the final furlong to win a six-furlong race by a neck over pacesetter Little Juanito.It never looked like he would catch that horse, Baffert said.There is much more to the stable than a Breeders Cup Classic winner and outstanding 2-year-olds.Vale Dori won the Grade 2 Bayakoa Stakes at Del Mar last Saturday and will start in the $200,000 Santa Maria Stakes for fillies and mares on dirt at Santa Anita on Feb. 11.Shes improving, Baffert said.The millionaire older horses Dortmund and Hoppertunity are in light training for 2017 campaigns. Hoppertunity is a long-term prospect for the $10 million Dubai World Cup in the United Arab Emirates on March 25, a race in which he was third behind California Chrome this year.He moves way up in Dubai, he said.Drefong, the winner of the Breeders Cup Sprint at Santa Anita on Nov. 5, is scheduled to run in the $300,000 Malibu Stakes at Santa Anita on Dec. 26, along with the lightly raced Ten Blessings, the winner of an optional claimer at Santa Anita on Nov. 4.Those runners give Baffert strong groups in three of the categories in which his stable excels -- Triple Crown hopefuls, sprinters, and older horses racing on dirt. All of that without American Pharoah. ' ' '
