COLUMBIA, Mo. - This has turned into the Cale Garrett Show. Missouri's senior linebacker intercepted Troy passes on consecutive drives in the second quarter Saturday, returning the second one for a touchdown, his third straight game with a TD. The Tigers have now scored five defensive touchdowns this season and have returned a pick for a score in four straight games.
Garrett's touchdown put the Tigers in complete command with a 35-7 lead with six minutes left in the opening half.
Troy was on brand in the opening minutes, flinging the ball down the field for the day's first score but didn’t play a sniff of defense.
