Vanderbilt Commodores head coach decided to go with former third-stringer Mo Hasan against Missouri — and it somehow worked as the Commodores shocked the Tigers, the #22 team in the country, by a 21-14 final score just a week after losing to UNLV.
In a surprise that had been telegraphed for about a week, Hasan came out to take the first snap of the game for Vanderbilt — and this, somehow, turned out to be a good move.
Vanderbilt’s offense opened the game with three consecutive punts, but the good news was that the defense showed up, forcing two punts of its own and also holding Missouri to a 50-yard field goal attempt (which it missed) on their third possession.
