Boston College fell just short to Missouri 27-21 in a battle of top 25 teams.
Things got off to a perfect start for the Eagles. Quarterback Thomas Castellanos marched the team down the field for the opening score. Using his legs and extending plays, Castellanos, who went 16/28 for 249 yards and three touchdowns, gave BC a strong early lead. He opened the scoring on a pass to Jerand Bradley on fourth down. Mizzou would respond with a field goal to end the first.
Both teams struggled on their next possession, but it was BC again next to score.
