THREE WEBER HIGHS

SEPT. 8, 2007

Gophers 41, Miami (Ohio) 35 (3OT): After a shaky debut a week earlier, the redshirt freshman won for the first time as a college player by throwing four touchdown passes.

OCT. 25, 2008

Gophers 17, Purdue 6: The Gophers improved to 7-1 on the season behind their versatile sophomore QB, who ran for a score and threw for the clincher with six minutes to play.

NOV. 13, 2010

Gophers 38, Illinois 34: The senior captain moved into third place in Big Ten passing history and powered a two-minute drill with a 29-yard run to break a nine-game losing streak.

THREE WEBER LOWS

OCT. 13, 2007

Northwestern 49, Gophers 48 (2OT): Weber believes his 1-11 freshman season would have turned out far differently if his two-point conversion pass hadn't been hurried, falling incomplete.

NOV. 15, 2008

Wisconsin 35, Gophers 32: Weber threw three touchdown passes but was sacked in the end zone in the fourth quarter, helping fuel a Badgers rally and spoil "my best chance" to win Paul Bunyan's Axe.

NOV. 22, 2008

Iowa 55, Gophers 0: The Gophers' last Metrodome game ended in humiliation as Weber threw two interceptions and Minnesota amassed only 134 yards of offense.
