  "account": "The Gophers faced a tough overtime loss against Indiana, coming in as 20.5-point underdogs. The No. 4-ranked Hoosiers needed overtime to secure a 23-16 victory at home. A strong performance from the Gophers' defense and special teams was nearly enough for an upset win. Offensive snap counts for the Gophers were evenly distributed among the 60 offensive players, with each player logging between 10 to 60 snaps. Quarterback Drake Lindsey logged all 60 snaps, while center Greg Johnson contributed a career-high 19 snaps. Tight end Roman Voss, who sat out earlier in the game, logged the most snaps for the Gophers' offensive line.\n\nDefensively, the Gophers' players saw significantly more action, with six different players seeing 70 or more snaps. Cornerback Aydan West and CB John Nestor each logged 74 snaps, while CB Zack Harden and CB Naiim Parrish each saw 64 and 60 snaps, respectively. Linebacker TJ Bush Jr. played the second-most snaps at defensive tackle and provided a big sack, reflected in his top 5 PFF grade of 70.5. The Gophers' linebacker room also performed at a high level, with linebacker Joey Gerlach logging 48 snaps and DT Theorin Randle contributing the most snaps at defensive tackle.",
