Moss Keys Blowout of No. 9 Mizzou of Texas A&M

COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Le'Veon Moss rushed for a career-high 138 yards with three touchdowns and No. 25 Texas A&M defeated ninth-ranked Missouri with a 41-10 victory on Saturday.

It was the fifth straight win for Texas A&M (5-1, 3-0 SEC) and first-year coach Mike Elko after a season-opener loss to Notre Dame.

Texas A&M led 24-0 at halftime and padded the lead when Moss ran 75 yards on the first play of the third quarter. He burst through a hole in the line and evaded a tackle before outrunning everyone for his second score of the day.

When he scored his third TD on an 18-yard run early in the fourth quarter that made it 41-7, the crowd of 97,049 broke into chants: “Over-rated, over-rated.”

Brady Cook passed for 186 yards with a touchdown for Missouri (4-1, 1-1), which was playing its first road game of the season.

Connor Wegman threw for 276 yards after missing three games with an injury to his throwing shoulder, and Amari Daniels added two rushing scores.

The tone set when the Tigers were stopped on fourth-and-2 on their first drive to give the ball to the Aggies at their 40. Cook's pass to Theo Wedge was fumbled on the play and a flag was thrown, but it was picked up and no penalty was called.

Daniels' 25-yard run put Texas A&M up 1 and scored on the next play to make it 7-0.

Texas A&M led 10–0 when Missouri receiver Luther Burden III appeared to score on a 75-yard reception. But it was brought back when the Tigers were flagged for having an illegal receiver downfield.

Another 1-yard TD run by Daniels extended the lead to 17-0 early in the second quarter.

The Aggies put together an 11-play, 88-yard drive, highlighted by a 40-yard reception from Walker and capped by a 1-yard run from Moss, to push the lead to 24-0.

Missouri's only touchdown came on a 59-yard touchdown pass from Cook to Wedge that cut the lead to 34-7 with about five minutes left in the third.
