Michael Scherer single-handedly lost that game for Missouri. That was probably the worst performance by any Missouri linebacker I've ever seen.
He took a terrible angle on third down that let Towles escape on his first touchdown. It cost the team at least four points. He totally whiffed on the play fake on the second TD when it was 1st and Goal from the 25, costing the team again. Kentucky gained almost 140 yards on their first TD drive, almost entirely by throwing in the deep middle, the area that Scherer is supposed to patrol.
With that said, Simon dropped a sure interception that cost the team seven and Penton's PI killed the team.
Of course, the receivers were terrible, the line was terrible, and Mauk was hammered shit on almost every throw past four yards tonight.
Lock getting the yips on the pass to Moore (although he probably would have dropped it) and Moore dropping a sure TD pass from Mauk didn't help things.
Josh Henson looks like a ****ing ass bag for that 3rd and Goal playcall, but to be honest, you can't really trust Mauk in that situation. He had all day on 1st and goal and threw it right to a defender, then did his pirouette on 2nd and Goal.
I told my father-in-law after the Connecticut game that they'd be lucky to win another game this year. A few days later I thought I was being hyperbolic, but if Brothers is out for an extended period, this team is ****ing done.
That Kentucky team sucks ass.
