The Bulldogs avoided a repeat against another group of Tigers, scoring on their first five possessions. Frazier rushed for 72 yards. Stockton finished with 252 passing yards. Georgia held Missouri to 286 total yards, with much of the Tigers’ production coming after the outcome was decided.
The tone was set almost instantly when Raylen Wilson intercepted Austin Simmons on the first play from scrimmage. Wilson returned his first career pick 30 yards to the Missouri 7-yard line. Two plays later, Frazier scored on a 4-yard run, putting the Bulldogs ahead just 61 seconds into the game.
