One score in victory Lindsey was 17-for-25 passing for 136 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 20-14 win versus Michigan. He also had five rushes for one yard.

Impact Lindsey was unspectacular on the day but did just enough to secure the victory over the Wolverines. The 6-foot-5 junior connected with running back Darius Taylor on a three-yard touchdown toss in the fourth quarter, giving the Golden Gophers the final lead of the game. Lindsey did put up his first multi-interception game of the season while throwing for a season-low 136 yards, however, and will be hoping to turn things around in the stat column moving forward. A road matchup against Purdue awaits on Saturday.

Scoreless on high volume Lindsey completed 31 of 48 passes for 279 yards during Saturday's 38-13 defeat against Mississippi State.

Impact On a day in which he attempted nearly 50 passes, Lindsey was unable to find the end zone as the Golden Gophers were largely shut down by a surprisingly game Mississippi State squad. The 6-foot-5 junior managed to put up a solid passing total on the day and avoided turnovers but just couldn't get anything through to the end zone. He will hope for better days moving forward, starting with a home matchup against Akron.

Efficient in blowout Lindsey completed 19 of 24 passes for 264 yards and one touchdown during Thursday's 59-7 victory against Eastern Illinois.

Impact Lindsey did was he needed to in a season opening blowout victory over FCS Eastern Illinois on Saturday. The 6-foot-5 quarterback completed nearly 80 percent of his passes on the day while connecting with tight end Pierce Walsh on a one-yard scoring strike just before halftime. While his raw numbers aren't elite, a blowout gamescript limited his opportunities in the passing game, particularly in the second half. A tougher test against Mississippi State awaits next week.
