↵Ron Zook’s club is trailing 23-3 in the third quarter at home.

↵The Blaine Gabbert era is starting out quite well in Missouri, as the new Tiger signal caller has passed for 222 yards and 2 scores.

↵His counter part Juice Williams? A pick and just one pass to Aurelius Benn.

↵SI’s Stewart Mandel laments his choice of Illinois as a surprise team.
