For Mizzou, 6-1 feels nice heading into Homecoming, and it feels even better knowing that Saturday’s 38-21 win over Kentucky could have gone south after a disastrous first quarter.
But the Tigers prevailed against the Wildcats in what could be described as a gritty, tough and grind-it-out style of play in the harsh winter-like conditions. It resulted in Mizzou’s first victory at Kroger Field since it was called Commonwealth Stadium in 2013.
Here are some interesting numbers from the game.
3 turnovers
Missouri’s defense played perhaps its most complete performance of the year at Kentucky.
