Missouri Beats Florida in Overtime On Two-Point Conversion to Earn Bowl Eligibility

The loss now leaves Florida out of bowl eligibility unless it can beat Florida State next week.

Missouri grabbed its sixth win of the year to earn bowl eligibility on Saturday after defeating Florida in a 24–23 thriller in overtime. 

After the Gators opened up overtime with a touchdown, Tigers running back Tyler Badie scored on a 13-yard run that set up a two-point try for the win.

Quarterback Connor Bazelak faked the handoff but was pressured off the edge. He heaved a fadeaway pass to the end zone and found a wide open Daniel Parker for the walk-off win.
