Throughout the week leading up to Kentucky and Missouri, incredulous discussion focused on two topics: Quarterback and Offensive Coordinator. Both excelled in UK’s 21-13 victory over Missouri. Patrick Towles was nearly flawless by going 22-27 for 249 yards with two passing touchdowns and one on the ground. Shannon Dawson timely called an excellent football game by mixing the run with play action passing all while winning on third down in a game in which his offense had zero turnovers. For the night, Kentucky converted 64.2% on third down by going 9/14. Given Mizzou’s recent success and defensive prowess, beating the Tigers by 8 points is a literal rout.
