Missouri steamrolled Massachusetts 42-6 at Memorial Stadium behind Ahmad Hardy's dominant three-touchdown rushing performance. The Tigers struck first with Jamal Roberts' 9-yard touchdown run, and while the Minutemen briefly responded with a Max Dowling touchdown catch, Missouri scored 35 unanswered points to pull away. Quarterback Beau Pribula connected with Brett Norfleet for a third-quarter touchdown, capping a complete offensive showcase that saw five different Tigers find the end zone.
