All No. 16 Missouri needed in order to beat Auburn in the first overtime of Saturday night's game was a field goal. And for a split second, Tigers coach Eli Drinkwitz thought he got it.
Drinkwitz watched from the sidelines as freshman kicker Robert Meyer lined up for a game-winning 38-yard field goal at Jordan-Hare Stadium. Meyer certainly got enough juice on the kick, as it sailed above the uprights—but it ended up just inches outside of the goal posts. The kick was no good.
