Mizzou 31 - South Carolina 28

Final

Fourth Quarter Notes

• This undoubtedly has to be the most complete performance from Missouri this year. Defensively, excellent. Offensively, good enough.
• 13 QB pressures is wild for a team that less than a month ago couldn’t get anywhere near the opponent’s backfield.
• The fact that Mizzou’s first fumble of the season came in their tenth game is crazy.
• Isaiah McGuire and Mekhi Wingo will be a problem for offenses next year.
• Might have been some busted coverage for Mizzou on that last TD. That guy was so wide open, he could’ve walked into the endzone.
• That interception is making this game way more interesting than it should be. I don’t understand why on both Bazelak’s picks he has just floated the ball up there. So strange.
• This game should not be close. This is atrocious.
• Bazelak being benched is deserved. Two terrible interceptions today.
• Tyler Badie is going to be an amazing player on Sundays. This guy just has everything you want.
• It wasn’t pretty at the end, but hey, they got it done. One more, and the Tigers are going bowling.

Third Quarter Notes

• 45 yards of penalties after South Carolina went three and out from their own 3 is just unacceptable. You can’t do that.
• Tyler Badie is going to need an ice bath after this game. He might touch it 40 times.
• Would love to see more of the creative playcalling. This third quarter has been a lull for both teams.
• What’d Akayleb Evans do to these refs? They hate him, and I mean hate him.
• That play right after was God righting the referees wrongs, all is right in the world again.
• Well, that was a rather uneventful quarter, but the Missouri defense is the story of this game, wow have they improved. They’ve made South Carolina’s offense practically null.

Second Quarter Notes

• I loved everything about that drive. South Carolina was very confused defensively, and that’s exactly what the Tigers need to keep doing.
• I’m really confused about what Steve Wilks said to this team before the Georgia game because this defense has looked completely transformed these last two weeks.
• Bazelak underthrew another deep ball, but who cares? Mookie TD!
• Kris Abrams-Draine is so good, I don’t care if that INT didn’t count, he’s everywhere.
• Mizzou’s defense has played well overall, but they’ve sucked at tackling at times and you just can’t do that.
• This defense is living in the backfield. When they aren’t getting sacks, they’re still making the QB move off his spot. Great to see.
• McGuire has been the one filling the stat sheet a lot, but Arden Walker has been looking really good as well. He figures to be a big contributor next year.
• Jet Sweeps seem to be killing South Carolina, run more of them please.
• Connor Bazelak should’ve kept that ball on the read option but he clearly does not want to run the ball at all.
• Watching that mad scramble to kick the field goal was hilarious, I wish they always had to do that.

First Quarter Notes

• KAD is bad man. I’m really excited about what he will do in his final two years here.
• I do not know what just happened on that Bazelak interception. There had to have been some sort of miscommunication or something.
• Missouri needs to respond, they can’t let South Carolina build up a two lead score. I just have no faith in them to come back.
• On the first two drives, Badie was the target of every pass attempt. If Bazelak can’t throw the ball down the field, why is he even playing.
• Even McKinniss isn’t punting good. Nothing going Mizzou’s way early.
• Mizzou’s defense seems like they’re trying to keep this team in the game, and the offense just hasn’t matched them yet.
• I like the creative playcalling. With how Bazelak looked in the normal offense, I think the motion and creative plays, might be the Tigers’ best bet to get the offense rolling.
