Three rushes from Rodriguez, not good enough for the 1st down. Mizzou uses a timeout. Tigers will get the ball back with over two minutes left in the game.

Oh my. The snap goes way over Goodfellow's head, he gets the ball at the goaline, punts it away right before getting walloped. Roughing the kicker penalty on Mizzou. 15-yard penalty, auto 1st down for Kentucky. Just an unreal sequence.
