Tigers go down two scores
Missouri's second drive didn't start off much better. Daniel nearly fumbled the ball on a fake jet sweep to Maclin and then junior wide receiver Jared Perry dropped a pass over the middle while he was wide open. It looks like the Tigers have tightened their usual extremely wide splits to avoid pressure from the defensive line. It's not helping much. Daniel has faced heat on every pass so far. A false start penalty seemed to kill the little momentum Missouri was building, and Daniel was later sacked on third and nine against a three man rush. If Missouri continues to play sloppy and commit costly penalties like they have so far, it's going to be a long night in Austin. Missouri had a chance to force the Longhorns to go three and out, but on third and six McCoy completed a quick slant that went for 38 yards. Right now there's a feeling Texas can do anything they want offensively. They've had a great mix of play calls and are making the Missouri defense look like a practice squad. McCoy has been simply incredible by avoiding pressure, stepping up and consistently hitting an open receiver. Senior running back Chris Obgonnaya finished the drive with a nine yard touchdown run. Texas is on a different level than Missouri.
