Murray State at #11 Missouri | 2024 College Football Week 1

team ready and so are we set to kickoff 2024 and could this be the beginning of a playoff run for a talented Mizu Tigers team sit back relax kickoff from the zoo surprise on side to open it ball is out flat on the play and new head coach Jody Wright of Murray State you knew he was going to come in here and try to do something to get mou off guard and I don't believe that's going to stand cuz the ball didn't go 10 yards it was it was right there on the line but you love the call Jody right you're firsttime head coach huge Underdog on the road why not let roll the dice see what happens try to seize momentum right off the beginning I love the call So Daniel blood was the man and the moment from Missouri that was able to get the surprise onside kick but yeah if you're Jody right 65 new players will get into their story throughout the evening why not the only thing that this could do coach will late for the call there is no foul for an IL legal block the kicker was more than five yards his kick when contact was made result is first down Missouri all right so now what you've done you've surprise onside kick in offense led by Luther buron the third and Brady cook see how that responds yeah but I like it they stayed on side good execution and it looks like he had a shot they block knocked down the kicker the ball's bouncing around he had an opportunity go make a play but now you've given Missouri field position but they're so explosive right here you have to look right now cook brings out the offense that's burden motion pop pass to Burton off the left side there goes Luther first play of the game and a good game for the Tigers that'll be just at the first down marker they're going to give it to him one touch one looks looks like see that they look at the sideline see everybody checking right here them coming out checking out of the Blitz from a blitz look and empty third and five empty Back Field cook easy catch birning touchdown and so as he releases you see both DBS sink able to get him the ball quick and I'm telling you what that's tough Duty for anybody in college football to bring him down one-on-one in the open field it's the formation and the boundary set it up unsettled the defense created the one-on-one matchup and you're going to see Luther Burton move all over the field this year to create those matchups so that people can't take him away lost a couple of players seven returning starters for the Tigers defensively hit the portal brought in some meat and that's some of it right there t tackle for loss that's Tristan new one of the leaders on the defense one of the big reasons Missouri was able to catapult themselves to a big season the year ago you just see no hesitation right absolutely and and that that's a great selling point when you're going to recruit these guys look what we did last year right up the middle again and that's a good second effort and now we goal to go yeah you see that the confidence Noel during his career at App State rushed for over three behind the no line with 104 career start Quick Pitch to Noel has some blockers Nate Noel touchdown turned all three guys on the right side of their offensive line and that was some Zoo beef leading away for Noel little toss sweep out there getting every Noel still in the back field cook look left rolls right downfield quick strike Luther buron big play out of bounds running backs in the flat and Luther buron sits right in between both of them there's a high re low reita and Luther Bon just right in the middle to get it down for the rest of the season he had worked on his deep ball throughout Camp thought he got much better at it plenty of time as he steps up into the pocket with pressure and that's a good shot middle of the field maai Miller counts for 92% of the past production a year ago for 3,138 yards it's not just bir with all of the receivers back you're you're starting your practice at a very Advanced Point first series for Marcus Carroll the Georgia state transfer running back and he's a load on yards later in a first down and his first Carry well what's impressive you see the line but each of them are breaking that first tackle on almost every carry cook Theo whis tries to make a man miss Theo down to the one for 32 Florida A&M transferred little Friendly Fire coming there Adam and Carol still in the back field two tight end set first and goal give it to Carol walks in touchdown tigers oh Luther burdon's gotten in the end zone six plays 70 yards yeah just too much up front Johanson pressured good job coming out of the pocket but there is just too much speed khil Jacobs the transfer from South Alabama and it's great when you come in with your coordinator he he knows what you can do you know the system easy transition on the field you saw the speed he had to go run down Joan you know hopefully first quarter hope we got all our bad football out for the for the whole season in that first quarter so uh we're ready to second quarter continue to fight we appreciate it coach thank You' all so much and already a big play to start the second quarter for the Tigers Marcus emry and Henry the little coach Spurrier type play here love it oh no bir it ball on the turf and that's a mistake from Missouri Murray State on the turnover or hey you better get ready there's people running all over the field I'm not sure if Luther was GNA get the snap get the snap or he was going to be a throw and he kind of took his eyes off it and it kind of the ball is a is it a pass or a handoff well if you m stay it's a handoff if you're Missourian it was a pass you know people wonder hey we're up why are we doing that hey you're putting on film make people have to think and do different things and you've practiced it guys yeah you're you're constantly and everybody's working on that you're seeing both teams really working different things right here you saw Murray stra right there they huddled some they've gone Up Tempo they've gone look to the sideline Here Comes Tempo second and seven cook looks left dumps it to Noel he's good out of the back field you see the quicks he has he put on about 15 20 lbs in the off season stands at 5'8 more than anywhere else third and four Johanson quick shot out of the back field big hit still going to be enough for a first down for the racers and they're continuing to execute first down of the [Applause] night love that hey you know this first game they've been hitting each other all spring you hit each other all summer you just can't wait to hit somebody else and you hearing those pads popping down but you know what there's guys that have played a lot of football still out here getting the opportunity to shine good job here by Joe Hanson finding his rhythm a little bit that was caught by Josh Crabtree he transferred in started his career at NC [Applause] State pitch outside how about that spamy or in his career you'll see him right here at his career in Miami he had 24 and A2 tackles for loss and you see why the speed they're trying to run a pin and pole and he just undercuts it Carol remains into Back Field cook keeps his eyes down field good job avoiding the pressure that was good quarterbacking there by Brady cook rolled against his body athleticism he does of right here being able to hang the pocket collapse getting out but going against his body still being able to turn more on that later second and 10 from Missouri cook there's the athleticism stepped up in the pocket and wisely slides down you see he is a big guy almost almost at Josh Allen like this series we're going to go fast the whole series second and 10 quick shot outside that is good defense by the racers that's read again on Josh Manning one of the best receivers in the country absolutely and for a guy like him coming home he's from East St leis Missouri here to come back play his home state cook to the right that's Theo whis whis got that long body flag on the play Third Down they're going to force him into a third down and just a silly silly penalty right there buron in the back field cook the fake to buron Brady cook tou sted 3 minutes and 2 seconds and there's a look at the ball play again oh great blocking up front anytime you're going to fake the ball to Luther Burton he's going to draw a bunch of eyes uh into the back field great blocking you see the tight end pulling insert there on the front side Brady cook follow him getting into the end zone right there which think can make the college football playoff and so there's a lot to like here from Murray State with coaching them and that's over the middle that's going to be a first down and a big play waiting to happen here we go mooki Cooper yeah he's going to be frustrated but look at look at M Cooper this is what you want a slot receiver makes the first guy Miss jumps to the outside splits the defense turns on the Jets right there good effort coming down they chase him down but the explosive play I can make big plays and score and win one-on-one and the fastest the youngster Maris Johnson he's missed a couple tonight but he has a bright future here as well that's a long throw to the sidelines that's another first down that's Maris Johnson just mentioned him a second ago they look out look at the balance a little little confusion there a little late on the throw still a good throw one of the Kon Reed's had a really good night but tell you what these guys are multiple game after game that wears you down the mental grind of being in this league sa death row Chris mclen that's the first one we had tonight 25 games at Florida he's in there got to be the replacement on the inside for the loss of Darius Robinson last year and they think he can do it you see why he was one of the best players in the country coming out of high school you see Drew Pine now Brady Cooks night is over back at Notre ban so now second and goal right up the middle that's a touchdown for Jamal [Applause] Roberts been all maou from start to finish 11th rank team in the country racing over Murray State 45 nothing here in the third catch up on their SEC football at 11 and then tune in to us afterwards afterwards on the college football final usually when everyone's favorite college football show when our show starts with an AM and front of it cuz that's when we get done we're changing rivalry let me learn about these teams first there's teams that aren't ranked that belong ranked and there's teams that are ranked way too high that don't belong ranks like I'm probably safe saying this on SEC network you're telling me with everything lost coaching staff and players to the NFL that Michigan's the ninth best team in the country so they could have something to say about it like with the ACC every bracket good individual effort there that was Maris Johnson for six well what fun is that let's get weird we have 12 teams let's let's see some things so off the right side quick move by Tavarez Jones nice run by Jones that now the fourth running back we've seen tonight scored Brady cook one touchdown pass Luther buron great stop there there you go see look at look at Jody right at the 20 yeah fire he's he's fired up you know because when you're you're a new coach in a new program I would be stunned at this point if Jaylen milro come end of October isn't in the driver seat for the Heisman Trophy two coaches left two years ago they left major college football jobs Notre Dame and Oklahoma respectively to go to USC and LSU they both lose Heisman Trophy winning quarterbacks so 26y attempt for Blake [Music] Craig and the three points secure Now 51 [Music] nothing that might be one of the guys that needed it a you know what I guarantee that guy guarantee I'm just guessing he was excited about what that field go did a little too fired up for this stage of the [Music] game what a great sport what a great night out here I love the excitement in this town around this football team again we talked about their first 11 win Seasons since 2014 have played for a conference Championship in a decade I about won one since 1969 baring something crazy here with 17 seconds left to hang a shut out I mean welcome Cory baton new defensive coordinator taking over for Blake Baker went to LSU that that's that's a confidence Builder absolutely and that that was that's really if there was a question mark we knew there was no not question marks maybe they the running backs but we've seen those guys they've performed at a high level but how this defense is going to respond and this is a dominating performance by this defense tonight the that'll do it that'll be the final play of the ball game give credit to Murray State they knew they were going to be in for a tough one tonight they came out and fought big fan of Jody Wright what he's going to build there first time head coach but as expected all Missouri Tigers and their season opener 51 to nothing [Music] [Music] first shut out in the season opener since 1998
