MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Minnesota coach P.J. Fleck celebrated his 44th birthday with a win on Friday against a long-time rival and the Gophers singing birthday wishes to their coach in the locker room.

Fleck said that he was also looking forward to the team’s ride back to Minneapolis.

Max Brosmer passed for two touchdowns and rushed for another to help Minnesota beat Wisconsin 24-7.

Wide receiver Daniel Jackson had six receptions for 68 yards and a TD catch for the Gophers (7-5, 5-4 Big Ten), who took back possession of Paul Bunyan’s Axe.
