What a beast run

 

[TrueOrange]

Minnesota special teams are the reason they will lose

Was it Murphy? Because he's had a past tendency to make special teams look that way.

 

[Bryan1]

Lmao Mauk trucked that guy at the goal line!

Bad punter. Muffed punts.

Missouri 19-17 over Minnesota in the 4th

 

[Dave1967]

Another horrible mistake

 

[Bryan1]

I didn't see the holding on that punt return, but that block in the back call on #9 was absolute BS!

 

[TrueOrange]

Hansborough with the 78 yard TD run.

26-17 Missouri with 9:20 left.

The holding looked more like the Minnesota guy pulled the Mizzou guy to the ground.

The block in thr back was legit but I've seen a lot worse not called.

say what you will about Missouri, they hang around and find ways to win games. I like Pinkel, he always has a good game plan

 

[joevol33]

Mizz gonna win

 

[TrueOrange]

Mizz gonna win

Still plenty of time for two scores.

 

[VolnJC]

Missouri got this one..big plays was the difference

 

[Catbone]

I really can't figure Missouri out. Are they great? Are they lucky? Are they just good enough to win every game? Are they average players who get coached incredibly?

 

[casetopia]

They play as a team and they wear you down.

 

[volger]

There's the nail.

Yeah, it was legit. After the commercial they showed the replay. The call was on 3, but he ref on the field when making the call said 9!

yes..all of the above

 

[casetopia]

Mizzou is the Pittsburgh Steelers of college football. Not pretty but they get the
job done.

Tough defense that targets holding the opposing offenses in check until the offense gets the opportunities for points.

Actually, it's kind of funny. They were the reverse last year (more Oregon-esque): hurry up no-huddle offense scores a bunch of points to make up for the defense, which more of would bend but focussed more on forcing turnovers than stopping production.

33-17 Missouri, final.

Missouri finishes the season at 11-3 on the year.

It's the first time in school history to have back to back 11 or more win seasons. (Also first time to win 3 straight bowl appearances.)

Over the last 8 years, Missouri's now 76-31.

And they still suck 😃

Hey, Ole Miss level/style program. I stick by that comparison.

(Later edit: That OOC loss still a bit of a black eye. Looked at that play by play: stopped them on 4th down with a minute left but was a pass interference that could have gone either way.)
