Recent Performances


The Missouri Tigers have demonstrated a commendable performance in their recent games, securing wins against formidable opponents. In their last game against the Razorbacks, the Tigers showcased their defensive prowess by limiting their opponents to 21 points while scoring 28 themselves. This victory was underpinned by an aggressive defense that forced three fumbles and secured two sacks, highlighting the team's ability to pressure opponents effectively.


Another notable performance came against Mississippi State Bulldogs where the Tigers dominated with a 39-20 victory. The offense was particularly impressive, amassing over 472 total yards with a balanced attack through both air and ground. The defense also played a crucial role by forcing turnovers and stifling Mississippi State's offensive efforts.


However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for Missouri as they faced a setback against South Carolina Gamecocks in a closely contested match that ended 30-34 in favor of South Carolina. Despite this loss, there were positive takeaways from the game including effective passing strategies and resilient defensive plays which indicate potential areas of strength for Missouri going into future games.


Looking Ahead
