The last time Missouri entered halftime with an 11-point lead over a ranked opponent, well, just go ahead and look back at the Tigers’ loss to Kentucky last week.
The offense took its foot off the gas and went stagnant throughout the second half, going three-and-out on all eight possessions. It wasted a strong performance from Missouri’s defense, who kept the Tigers in the lead until the very last play of the game.
Drew Lock and Co. were not about to let that happen against Florida.
The senior quarterback threw for 124 of his 250 yards in the second half and picked up two of his three touchdowns, and Missouri’s defense kept the Gators to just seven second half points as the Tigers took a big 38-17 victory over Florida.
