Tied 3-3 late in the third quarter of their top-15 showdown with the Missouri Tigers, the Vanderbilt Commodores got the first score of the game on a highlight reel 80-yard touchdown run from Makhilyn Young to take the lead for the first time on their way to a pivotal 17-10 win.
The battle between 10th-ranked Vanderbilt and the 15th-ranked Tigers brought together two of the most surprising programs in the SEC. Both teams were 6-1 with a legitimate shot at making the College Football Playoff. Today's victory will be a critical differentiator for the Commodores in the eyes of the selection committee.
Locked in a defensive battle, Missouri squandered multiple opportunities to take control of the game. In the third quarter alone, Tigers QB Beau Pribula was stopped short on a 4th and Goal
