Missouri's Luther Burden III runs a punt back 78-yards for a touchdown during the first half of an NCAA college football game against Abilene Christian Saturday, Sept. 17, 2022, in Columbia, Mo.COLUMBIA, Mo. — The Missouri Tigers made it a clear priority to get wide receiver Luther Burden III more involved in the team’s final tuneup before entering SEC play, and the move paid immediate dividends in Saturday’s 34-17 victory over Abilene Christian.
“That’s huge when you open up the game with that,” Cook said. “It just gives us a layer of confidence going out for that first drive, so it was huge.” Burden also received some help from his friends, namely Cook and wide receiver Dominic Lovett. The duo connected on a 79-yard touchdown pass in the first half that helped Missouri build a 17-3 halftime lead. Lovett posted career highs with seven catches for 132 yards and two scores, with Drinkwitz saying Lovett adds a different element to the Tigers’ offense.
“ we can’t complete a slant, we run the slant three times on each side,” Lovett explained. “We can’t complete a post, we run it three times until we get it right, until we can get that connection. There’s nothing more important than the QB and the wide receiver’s connection when you’re in the passing game. Without that, then you have nothing.”
