What a Game!

So last night, as I prepared to watch the University of Oklahoma Sooners take on the University of Missouri Tigers, I wondered what it would be like if Missouri (Mizzou) actually beat the Sooners. Something Mizzou hasn't done for several years. Well, being a HUGE Mizzou fan, I was absolutely ecstatic last night watching my Mizzou Tigers lay a lickin' on the Sooners of Oklahoma.

Mizzou started the game by returning the opening kick off 85+ yards for a touchdown! That definitely go the crowd into the game and pumped up. Oklahoma battled back to tie the game up at 7 but Mizzou quickly jumped on top 14-7. At halftime Mizzou was up 17-14. After some back and forth play, Oklahoma lead Mizzou by a slim margin of 21-20. But the gritty Mizzou defense held their ground often in the red zone and forced Oklahoma to try for field goals, one of which Oklahoma missed, wide left.

MIzzou opened the game up after that missed field goal by the Sooners and won the game 36-27.

This is the 3rd straight week that the #1 team in the country has been defeated. Mizzou is now ranked #7 in the country. GO TIGERS!!
