#Mizzou kicks off against the Arkansas Razorbacks next Saturday at 2:30 p.m. CT. That's the final regular season game of the season for the Tigers.
November 18, 2024 at 6:07 PM
My goodness, you just can not make this stuff up. Cook finds Burden for a massive touchdown and the Tigers regain the lead.

#Mizzou leads 30-27.
November 17, 2024 at 12:37 AM
#Mizzou faces its most important play after the two-minute timeout. The Tigers have a third and three on the opposing 41-yard line, trailing 27-22.
November 17, 2024 at 12:32 AM
Nate Noel. Touchdown.

#Mizzou has a 22-21 lead with 9:12 to play.
November 17, 2024 at 12:13 AM
#Mizzou can not catch any breaks right now. They stop the Gamecocks on fourth down but it doesn't matter as the prior play was under review.
November 16, 2024 at 11:42 PM
Penalties haven't been a significant issue since the beginning of the season for #Mizzou. They absolutely have been tonight, giving the Gamecocks some yard and a first down instead of third and long.
November 16, 2024 at 11:39 PM
12-yard completion for Kewan Lacy. Eli Drinkwitz said earlier that he wanted to get the talented freshman more involved. He's getting his wish now.

#Mizzou trails 21-6 at halftime to South Carolina.

That was one ugly half of football from the Tigers on both sides of the ball.
November 16, 2024 at 11:06 PM
This is the most vulnerable the #Mizzou defense has looked all season. Have not seen issues like this since Alabama and it looked like those big-play issues had been erased. Apparently not.
November 16, 2024 at 10:45 PM
Sellers found Joshua Simon wide-open for the second touchdown of the game. #Mizzou now trails 14-6 in the late stages of the first half.
November 16, 2024 at 10:33 PM
Not an ideal empty drive from #Mizzou. Really needed to take advantage of that field position and the Gamecocks have the opportunity to extend its lead with under five to play in the half.
November 16, 2024 at 10:22 PM
Big momentum after that interception. Sellers was searching for Oscar Adaway III but there were too many #Mizzou defenders and Dreyden Norwood walked away with it.

Tiger ball on the 29-yard line.
November 16, 2024 at 10:19 PM
South Carolina has attempted three fourth-down conversions. #Mizzou finally got a stop on the third try and gets the ball back.
November 16, 2024 at 10:07 PM
Brady Cook looks pretty comfortable right now for #Mizzou. Only one questionable throw that was just lacking a little power.
November 16, 2024 at 9:43 PM
The final SEC injury report just a few minutes before kick-off.

#Mizzou quarterback Brady Cook is in pads and warming up but is still considered a game-time decision.
