Missouri dominated that half for the most part. It just made too many mistakes. Penalties and a terrible turnover.

The defense continues to have issues on third down, but really only gave up three points. The TD came on an 11-yard drive thanks to the fumble.

I can't remember the last guy whose stock did a faster 180 than Brady Cook over two weeks. He is 11/12 for 213 yards and a touchdown. His only incompletion was basically a throwaway when he had no one open on third down without a timeout.

Luther Burden is a grown ass man. He's a first-round pick whenever he comes out. I think he'd be one this year but he can't be. Good for Mizzou.

Running game: Mizzou should throw on every down. And what do Tavorus Jones and Jamal Roberts have to do to get a chance? Credit to Nate Peat on the final drive, but before that Mizzou had 11 carries for 7 yards.

Have to think Ennis Rakestraw is suspended. Even with the injury to Dre Norwood (who was playing really well) he didn't get on the field.

Overall, it feels like Mizzou should be up by more, but if you can score on the opening drive of the third quarter, you're on track.
