Three-and-oh, and the room is already drafting the eulogy after Troy outplayed them in a 27-17 win.
The emotional rollercoaster
Missouri fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
Missouri beat Troy 27-17 and moved to 3-0, which on paper is the best thing that happened to anyone in the state this week. The fanbase disagreed. The turning point wasn't a play, it was the moment the scoreboard stopped mattering and the eye test took over, and someone typed "Welp that's it, the season's over" to forty-two nodding strangers. Another put it plainly: Troy "outplayed us." Misery jumped thirty points on an undefeated record. Three wins, zero believers, and nine Saturdays still waiting.
