1. Mizzou with a nice drive out of half.
A lot of tempo early on. The drive starts with a 31-yard completion to Theo Wease. Followed by a seven-yard and six-yard rush by Schrader and then a 21-yard pass to Mookie Cooper.
2. Brady Cook lit up.
Georgia sent seven on third down and the defensive back had a free shot on Cook and he's went to and through Cook.
I haven't seen Cook take a shot that bad since the Memphis game and that was on a run.
Mizzou got a field goal out of it.
MIZ 13, UGA 10
By the way, Harrison Mevis became Mizzou's all-time leading scorer with 364 points after that field goal. It was originally ruled 363, but its actually 364.
3. Schrader is running hard
He's got 14 carries for 53 yards after the team's first drive after halftime. He's broken a number of tackles today and is running as well as you can versus a good run defense like this.
4. Give and take.
So, Hopper got a penalty for disconcerting penalties then got a sack the next play.
Then, on the next play, cornerback Dreyden Norwood was flagged for a hold (kind of a weak call in my opinion). Next, Ladd McConkey took a screen 16 yards after breaking a tackle behind the line of scrimmage from Tre'Vez Johnson and later and Sidney Williams before Hopper made the stop.
Then a couple of plays later, Georgia punches it in with a 15-yard rushing touchdown by Kendall Milton.
A super ugly drive by Mizzou.
MIZ 13, UGA 17
5. Freshman mistake.
Marquis Johnson with a horrible decision to return the ball. He sees the ball going into the end zone and goes into the end zone to catch it and then only gets a five-yard return. On top of a holding penalty, Mizzou gets the ball on its own three-yard line.
6. Tre'Vez Johnson has missed a couple of big tackles
A couple of big missed tackles already this quarter. Missed on McConkey's aforementioned screen pass and then on a punt with around 6:10 left in the quarter. He was the first one down the field and whiffed. It only ended up going six yards so not bad, but that could've been a nice little momentum play.
Something Mizzou needs.
Let me say, he's not the only one but he's just had a couple of notable ones this quarter.
7. Joseph Charleston with a major hit stick, but McConkey fires back
Looked like Bill Goldberg on that tackle on Rara Thomas. He nearly broke him in half.
But it doesn't matter because on the very next play McConkey got a gain of 33 yards to put UGA inside Mizzou's 10-yard line.
8. Third downs will be the death of Mizzou.
Georgia is 6-of-11 on third downs and tight end Oscar Delp just hauled in a five-yard touchdown pass on third down. When you add in Georgia's lone fourth down attempt that was converted in the first half, it's 7-of-12 on third and fourth down.
Its also 4-of-4 in the red zone.
The two things Drink said would determine this game.
