Some of you probably thought the missed FG was the sure sign. I knew that even 3 points wouldn't be enough.
Up 17-6 with first and goal at the Mizzou 10. Thorne throws a perfect pass to Robert Lewis in the corner of the end zone, which promptly goes through his arms like they were coated in buttah. Make that one catch, and the game is over. Next play, Thorne is mauled for a 10-15 yard loss. That was when I was texting with everybody saying, we've all seen this movie many times before. We know how this ends.
There was zero doubt in anybody's mind what the outcome would be.
