Would both of those teams come away thinking oh well...sort of lost...sort of won...gotta do better.
Absolutely not. It would be a win for Missouri. They got in the way and got partial credit in the ongoing progression of their season.
Alabama would feel like it was a complete loss. They couldn't secure a win against a team that was flailing like Missouri.
That does not even take into account the nature of the game.
3 points for a win...1 point for a tie...0 points for a loss.
