Missouri Tigers Crush the Buffs in Boulder | The Writing on the Wall

The Missouri Tigers went into this game a 3.5 point favorite and came out with a 45 point Big 12 road win. This game started off bad for Chase Daniel and the Tigers. His first pass was intercepted which gave the Buffs good field position and they scored a TD off of it. After that, the Tigers went on a 55-3 run @ Colorado. This Mizzou team proved that they weren't like the past Tiger teams. They fell behind early but didn't get down on themselves and came back to dominate the rest of the game. The Tigers outgained Colorado about 600-200 yards in total offense. The D proved that they could play even with the loss of star safety Pig Brown. The offense played very well and QB Chase Daniel returned to Heisman form with 400+ yards passing and 5 touchdowns in a huge statement for the Tigers of Missouri. The Mizzou defense held a good CU running back to 55 yards. Also, Jeremy Maclin had another huge day. The freshman from Kirkwood had just under 200 all-purpose yards and continues to lead the Big 12 in all-purpose yards. The Mizzou D also played great against the Colorado passing game and held them to 112 yards through the air. Tight end Chase Coffman had a huge day having touchdown catches of 22, 23, and 5 yards showing his great athleticism and showing the pro scouts what he is made of.
