NASHVILLE, Tenn. – In a game closer than anyone expected, Missouri and Vanderbilt began the fourth quarter tied 14-14 after trading interceptoins in the third quarter, one more costly than the other.
Mizzou caught a break midway through the third quarter but couldn’t capitalize when Vandy’s Tae Daley was flagged for running into kicker Tucker McCann on a field goal attempt that missed wide right. With new life at the 9-yard line, Kelly Bryant looked for tight end Albert Okwuegbunam in the end zone but threw into double coverage as Allan George came down with the interception just inside the pylon.
