COLUMBIA, Mo. — A couple touchdowns, a couple field goals and a whole lot of autographs.
Such was Missouri’s spring football game, a low-scoring, low-contact affair that drew a sizable crowd on a seasonal Saturday afternoon.
One half of the Tigers’ roster scored 10 points. The other bunch scored nine, picking up the highlight of the day when wide receiver Theo Wease Jr. caught a backward pass and looked downfield.
Wease’s throw — yes, throw — found fellow wideout Mookie Cooper, who picked up enough separation to take off for a long touchdown.
Cooper finished with five catches for an estimated 132 yards and that touchdown.
