As the final home game of Missouri’s season, all eyes were on QB Drew Lock and the seniors Saturday. It also turned out to be a special day for one Tigers sophomore.
In the third quarter, on a drive that extended MU’s lead to 38-0 over Arkansas, RB Larry Rountree III crossed the 1,000-yard mark for the season. He becomes the third Mizzou ball-carrier to hit four digits in the last three seasons.
Through three quarters, Rountree has recorded 115 rushing yards on 27 carries. The Tigers still lead 38-0 entering the fourth quarter.
