Our software allows me only 10K characters per post. So we'll go with a new thread for the second half.

We're underway. Tigers start just inside the 20.



Alec Abeln at center, Taylor Chappell at left guard on this series. Not sure where Evan Boehm is.

Nice blocking on this drive so far as Witter and Hunt both have runs of more than 10 yards.

Mauk to Moore for 25 yards. J'mon now has 3 catches for 74 yards.

Nice drive by Mauk and he throws a TD to Culkin, but it's not gonna count. Culkin was out of the back of the end zone, then came back in to catch the ball. That's a loss of down so Missouri has to kick a field goal.

Baggett is good from 23 yards. Mizzou 20, SEMO 3, 10:55 3Q. 10 plays, 76 yards, 4:05 on the drive.

Apparently the TV broadcast is saying Evan Boehm is done for the day. We have no knowledge of this at this point. Updates in the press box are not exactly a priority here.

Rickey Hatley destroys Bender as he throws. He's had a nice day, backing up what everyone said about him in camp.

Mizzou starts this drive on the five with Tyler Hunt at tailback. He gains two on first down.

The Tigers run three times on that series. They gain six yards. They have to punt.

Injury update: Evan Boehm out, sprained right ankle. Russell Hansbrough out, sprained right ankle. Both at discretion of trainer Rex Sharp.

Kentrell Brothers makes his 13th tackle. He is halfway to the single game school record.

SEMO punts, Penton stays away from it and the Tigers take over at the nine.

Witter for two, Mauk for six, Witter for seven and a first down, but we've got a flag. Missouri not exactly covering itself in offensive glory the last two quarters.

Swing pass to Ish Witter, which actually goes as a run because it was backwards, loses two yards. Witter now has 13 carries for 33 yards. That's an average of 2.5 per carry. Not ideal, especially against SEMO.

A four yard run, which is inconsequential except that it puts SEMO at 176 yards and I took the under for 175 of total offense. Gonna need some TFLs Mizzou.

SEMO false starts on fourth and three. Redhawks not exactly a well oiled machine themselves.

Unreal. Mizzou just blocked a quick kick. Kentrell Brothers got it, it deflected directly to Aarion Penton who ran it in about 45 yards for a touchdown.

27-3 Mizzou after the PAT.

Brothers stat watch: 14 tackles, 1.5 TFL, blocked punt. In three quarters.

End of the 3rd: 27-3 Mizzou

FOURTH QUARTER

SEMO will start at its own 38. I'd expect Lock to come back out for Mizzou's next offensive series.
It's Mauk, not Lock. May be because Missouri is starting on the four.

Maty Mauk now 10-18 for 154 yards.

DeSean Blair becomes at least the third Missouri player to make the first catch of his career on a 20-yarder.

And Mauk is picked off trying to go downfield for DeSean Blair. That was bad Maty, who we've still seen a little more of than most probably wanted.

Announced attendance: 64670. A fraction of them are still here.

The INT is under review. And now is reversed. Incomplete pass.

Mauk's helmet came off at the end of a scramble there. Missouri uses a timeout, which allows them to keep Mauk on the field if they
show choose. Normally you have to take a guy out for a play after he loses his helmet.

On fourth and seven Mauk incomplete for Brown. It was either a terrible throw or Brown ran a bad route and didn't turn around soon enough. Not sure which happened.

Terry Beckner Jr. in the backfield in an instant there, gets a hurry and it nearly leads to a pick by Brandon Lee. Couldn't quite hang on to it.

Now Beckner out on the perimiter to make a tackle on a wide receiver screen. Impressive series for the freshman.

This series belongs to Drew Lock. He will start at the 8...and likely hand off quite a bit.

Emanuel Hall the fourth Tiger with the first reception of his college career, a nine yard gain on a swing pass from Lock who is now 5-6 for 60 yards.

I want to try to describe the play Drew Lock made so just stick with me. He scrambled around for about six seconds, rolled all the way to the left sideline, spun back, fired across his body about 45 yards to Tyler Hunt, who did not have a defender within 20 yards of him and then rolled into the end zone untouched.

PAT good. 34-3. Drew Lock is now 6-8 for 138 yards and a touchdown. He has produced ten points in two drives.

Nate Howard bursts through the line and makes a TFL. There have been some things to like out of the freshmen defensive linemen in this half.

Nate Howard just cut the SEMO running back in half. Unfortunately the QB still had the ball. Tigers get the stop, SEMO will punt. Tigers ought to be able to run out the last 2:50 or so.

Lock at QB, Abbington at RB. Abbington gets five on first down.

Emanuel Hall with a drop on 2nd down, but then did a nice job of preventing a pick on third down. Lock will end the day 6-10 for 138 and a TD.

Nate Howard and Terry Beckner have been all over the place in the fourth quarter.

FINAL: Mizzou 34 SEMO 3. Post-game coverage to come.
