AUBURN, Ala. — Just when you think you’ve seen it all, Mizzou fans.
On Saturday, Tigers running back Nathaniel Peat dropped the football before crossing the goal line on what would have been the game-winning touchdown in overtime, resulting in a 17-14 Auburn victory before a stunned crowd of 85,750 at Jordan-Hare Stadium.
Before that madness, Missouri’s Harrison Mevis missed a 26-yard field goal that would have delivered the Tigers a much-needed comeback victory at the end of regulation. Instead, overtime.
In the first OT series, Mizzou’s Martez Manuel appeared to intercept a pass tipped by teammate Daylan Carnell, but a replay review reversed the call, setting up fourth down from the 27.
