No. 6 Missouri Earns Ranked Win, Tops No. 24 Boston College 27


Missouri’s offense was in high gear throughout the game. Quarterback Brady Cook completed 21 of 28 passes for 255 yards and two touchdowns. Running back Dominic Lovett rushed for 108 yards and a touchdown on 21 carries. The Tigers also received contributions from wide receivers Dominic Richardson and Luther Burden, who combined for over 150 receiving yards.

Missouri’s defense held its own against a talented Boston College offense. The Tigers forced two turnovers and limited the Eagles to just 24 points. Linebacker Ty’Ron Hopper led the way with eight tackles and a forced fumble.

“Our team showed great resilience tonight,” said Missouri coach Eli Drinkwitz. “We faced a lot of adversity, but we never gave up. This is a big win for our program.”

“We’re disappointed with the result, but I’m proud of the way our team fought,” said Boston College coach Jeff Hafley. “Missouri is a great team, and they deserved the win tonight.”

Missouri’s victory over Boston College has vaulted the Tigers into the national spotlight. The team has now won four straight games and is positioned for a run at the SEC East division title. Missouri will face its toughest test yet when they travel to No. 1 Georgia next week.
