Indiana 31, No. 19 Missouri 27: D'Angelo Roberts ran for two touchdowns - including the go-ahead score with 22 seconds remaining - as the visiting Hoosiers stunned the Tigers.
After Missouri (3-1) took the lead on a 40-yard field goal by Andrew Baggett with 2:20 left, Indiana (2-1) went 75 yards in six plays and used a pass interference penalty on a fourth-and-six play to keep the drive alive. One play later, Tevin Coleman took a screen pass 44 yards down to the Missouri 15 and drew a facemask penalty before Roberts found the end zone two plays later from 3 yards out.
Roberts finished with 65 yards rushing and Coleman added 132 yards on the ground and a touchdown for the Hoosiers, who ended a 13-game road losing streak against ranked teams and an 18-game slide against Top 25 foes. Maty Mauk threw for 326 yards and two touchdowns while Bud Sasser notched career highs with 11 catches and 142 receiving yards to lead the Tigers.
Coleman touched the ball five times on a six-play first-quarter scoring drive, capitalizing on a 1-yard plunge before Missouri knotted it on a 45-yard strike from Mauk to Jimmie Hunt จC one play following a spectacular 42-yard scamper from Russell Hansbrough. Roberts put Indiana back in front with another 1-yard TD early in the second quarter, but Hansbrough evened it again when he ripped off a career-long 68-yard run with 6:50 to go in the first half.
The Hoosiers pulled ahead for a third time with 54 seconds left in the third quarter as Coleman broke loose for 49 yards and Nate Sudfeld found J-Shun Harris II streaking down the middle of the field for a 33-yard score. The Tigers answered yet again on the ensuing possession, tying it up when Sean Culkin hauled in his first career touchdown catch on a 1-yard toss from Mauk.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Coleman, who entered the game averaging a FBS-best 218.5 yards on the ground, tied Anthony Thompsonกฏs school-record streak with a touchdown in his 12th straight game, but sat out the entire second quarter with an undisclosed injury before returning for the second half. .. Missouri did not force a turnover, ending its NCAA-high 47-game streak of recording an interception or fumble. กญ Indiana CB Kenny Mullen was carted off the field with a potentially serious left knee injury while covering a punt midway through the third quarter.
