Missouri 9 Connecticut 6
This game was as ugly as the score indicates it was.
Missouri trailed 6-2 most of the first half, until they finally scored a touchdown in the third quarter to go ahead.
UConn had plenty of chances in the fourth quarter to steal a win from the Tigers, but they were unable to convert several opportunities.
Missouri is still undefeated this season, though they’ve had a tough time in their past two games. The Tigers will travel to Kentucky next Saturday night for their SEC opener.
