The Missouri Tigers pulled off an incredible upset on Saturday, defeating No. 15 Kansas State on a 61-yard field goal as time expired. The kick, made by Harrison Mevis, was the longest field goal in Missouri history and sealed a dramatic victory for the Tigers.
The game was a back-and-forth affair, with both teams trading scores throughout the game. Kansas State took a late lead with just over two minutes remaining, but Missouri was able to drive down the field and set up Mevis’ heroics. With the clock winding down, Mevis stepped up and drilled the 61-yarder to give the Tigers a stunning win.
The win was a huge boost for Missouri, who had been struggling in recent weeks. The Tigers had lost three of their last four games, and were in danger of missing out on a bowl game. But with the win over Kansas State, Missouri is now in prime position to make a bowl game and finish the season on a high note.
Mevis’ kick was one of the most memorable plays of the season, and it will be remembered for years to come. It was a fitting way to end an exciting game, and it gave Missouri a much-needed win. The Tigers will look to build on this victory as they head into the final stretch of the season.
