Gophers coach Jerry Kill appeared to suffer another seizure on the sideline at halftime of today's game against Western Illinois and was taken off the field on a stretcher.
Gophers spokesman Paul Rovnak said during Kill has been taken to a local hospital as a precaution.
UPDATE: Gophers spokesman Chris Werle said on the Gophers' radio broadcast that "he's fine. He's just kind of resting."
Kill, who suffers from epilepsy, last had a seizure during a game in last year's regular season finale against Michigan State. That one also happened at halftime, but it came in the locker room.
Kill's last seizure on the sidelines came against New Mexico State in 2011.
This time, the Gophers players had left for the locker room, and the band was on the field performing its halftime show, but Kill was down on the sideline.
NELSON INJURED
Gophers quarterback Philip Nelson left today's game against Western Illinois in the second quarter with a right leg injury, and backup Mitch Leidner promptly led Minnesota on the go-ahead touchdown drive.
