First Quarter


The opening quarter saw the Tigers take an early lead with a touchdown, putting them ahead 7-0. The Hoos struggled to find their rhythm offensively and were unable to put points on the board during this period.


Second Quarter


In the second quarter, Virginia's kicker Will Bettridge successfully converted a field goal attempt from 39 yards out. This narrowed Missouri's lead to just four points as both teams headed into halftime with a scoreline of 7-3.


Third Quarter


Virginia came out strong after halftime. Running back Harrison Waylee scored on an impressive two-yard rush that gave UVA its first touchdown of the game. Bettridge added another field goal from 42 yards, extending their lead to six points by the end of this period.


Fourth Quarter


The final quarter was marked by defensive prowess from both sides as neither team managed to add further points. Emmanuel Karnley’s interception for UVA was crucial in maintaining their narrow advantage and preventing any comeback attempts by Mizzou.


Throughout this encounter, Chandler Morris led UVA's passing attack with precision but without touchdowns; he completed 25 passes for a total gain of nearly two hundred yards while maintaining zero interceptions—a testament to his careful play under pressure.
