COLUMBIA, S.C. — As Cody Schrader bounded into the end zone Saturday, the only sound coming from an otherwise silenced and stunned Williams-Brice Stadium was a faint M-I-Z-Z-O-U chant billowing from the southeast corner.
The pocket of Mizzou fans witnessed something their eyes had not seen in years: The Tigers held a double-digit lead over a ranked opponent on the road.
Schrader’s 1-yard plunge early in the second quarter staked Mizzou to a two-touchdown lead over No. 25 and shell-shocked South Carolina, part of a dominant first half for the visiting Tigers at a stadium where third-year coach Eli Drinkwitz has never tasted defeat.
