special teams and ball security was. Missouri's offense scored 29 points--that's not great defense, for sure, but they did hold Missouri below their average. They gave up a lot of yards late when they were selling out for big plays because they were behind, but considering the positions that turnovers and special teams put the defense in (13 of those points came on drives that started on the OU side of the field), the defense wasn't dreadful. Again, don't get me wrong--I'm not saying the defense was stout, but still.
Missouri is a good team, and they played a great game tonight. Other than the fumble on the first punt of the game, they didn't make many mistakes.
I think Oregon (assuming they're #1) ends the streak by beating USC next week.
