Plenty of great individual highlights, but more work needed as the Tigers beat South Dakota State (VIDEO)

At times it wasn’t pretty, but the Missouri Tigers made enough big plays to pull away for a 38-18 victory over South Dakota State on a steamy Saturday afternoon at Faurot Field.  When the game was hanging in the balance with Mizzou clinging to a three-point lead, the defending SEC East Champs stepped up all three phases of their game to keep down the feisty Jackrabbits.

Quick Hit Game Notes:

-With Duron Singleton’s first half interception, the Tigers have created a turnover in 45 straight games, tops in the nation.

-Darius White’s 44 yard touchdown pass was the longest of his career.  His 83 total yards were a career best

-Russell Hansbrough rushed for a career high 126 yards.

-Marcus Murphy’s 100 yard kickoff return for touchdown was the longest return since 1977.

Watch our postgame comments…looking back, the win wasn’t all that ugly.
