Brady Cook ran for a 30-yard go-ahead touchdown with 1:53 remaining, lifting No. 21 Missouri to a 28-21 victory over Arkansas in a snowy Battle Line Rivalry matchup in Columbia, Mo.

Cook had a quiet day through the air (10-of-20, 168 yards), as the Tigers (9-3, 5-3 SEC) opted instead to lean on Marcus Carroll (22 carries, 90 yards, two TDs).

Taylen Green was 21-of-35 passing for 229 yards and added 53 rushing yards for the Razorbacks (6-6, 3-5). Ja’Quinden Jackson ran 18 times for 87 yards and three TDs to fuel the Arkansas offense, while Andrew Armstrong registered 128 yards on nine receptions.

Arkansas trailed by six with under 10 minutes remaining when Green and Jackson started to lead the Razorbacks down the field. Green found Armstrong for 25 yards on fourth-and-8, and two plays later, Jackson rushed up the middle for a 9-yard score as Arkansas slipped in front by a point.

However, the Tigers only needed about 2 1/2 minutes to get back in front, as Cook scrambled up the middle for the decisive score (and the Tigers tacked on the two-point conversion). The Razorbacks drove to the Missouri 32 in the final minute, but Green’s final three passes fell incomplete as the game ended.

Following a 7-7 first half, the visitors needed only six plays to find the end zone on their first possession of the third quarter, as Jackson found space on the right side and scampered for a 12-yard score.

Missouri then drove the ball inside the 10, but a false start penalty on fourth-and-1 scrapped any plans of a fourth-down attempt. Instead, the Tigers settled for a 28-yard field goal by Blake Craig, making it 14-10.

On the next play from scrimmage, Jackson fumbled and Carroll quickly made the Razorbacks pay with a 1-yard TD run with 13:45 remaining as the Tigers jumped ahead 17-14.

Following an Arkansas punt, Cook found Theo Wease for 70 yards to set up Craig’s 34-yard field goal, making it 20-14 with 9:39 to play.

Arkansas standout defensive lineman Landon Jackson was injured making a tackle in the first half. He was taken off on a stretcher and brought to a local hospital, where he reportedly had movement in all of his extremities.
