College football has concluded following the Big Ten’s successive championships. The Minnesota Gophers looked ahead to 2025 following their win over Virginia Tech in the Duke’s Mayo Bowl. They will also have strong representation in several of the all-star games.
The Senior Bowl and East-West Shrine Bowl are arguably the top events for players aiming to showcase their skills for the next level. Minnesota now has a new entrant traveling to Texas.
MN Gophers cornerback Ethan Robinson selected for Shrine Bowl.
Following three years at Bucknell, Ethan Robinson moved to the Gophers with the aim of making a difference at the Power 5 level. He transformed a solid season into a chance for draft visibility by securing a position in the East-West Shrine Bowl.
Robinson participated in 13 matches for the Gophers this season. The senior recorded 29 tackles, with three resulting in losses. He also intercepted three passes while recording eight passes defended. He also compelled and retrieved a fumble.
Although the Gophers lost to Michigan, Robinson’s interception contributed to keeping them competitive in the game. A dubious onside kick decision eliminated the chance for the offense to execute a comeback.
Minnesota features several players from the Gophers at the Shrine Bowl. Robinson is added to the East roster alongside teammate Tyler Cooper. He will get the chance to compete against the quarterback he has been observing all year in practice since Max Brosmer is on the west roster.
The Shrine Bowl is scheduled for January 30, 2025, in Arlington, Texas. The match takes place at AT&T Stadium, where the Dallas Cowboys play.
