Goes off against Buckeyes Verdell rushed 20 times for 161 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday's 35-28 win over Ohio State. He also caught three passes for 34 yards and a touchdown.

Impact After Minnesota proved effective on the ground against the Buckeyes last week, one could conclude that Verdell and teammate Travis Dye might follow suit, and both players delivered.

Verdell is more of a power runner while Dye is a shifter back, and their snaps should remain relatively even this season, although Verdell should have more goal-line opportunities.
