Alabama edges Missouri as Simpson, freshmen deliver

Alabama edged No. 14 Missouri 27-24 in a tense finish sealed by freshman cornerback Dijon Lee Jr.’s interception of Beau Pribula. No. 8 Alabama leaned on quarterback Ty Simpson’s poise; he completed 23 of 31 for 200 yards and three touchdowns while enduring four sacks and persistent pressure. Simpson converted two late fourth downs—a 29-yard throw to freshman Lotzeir Brooks and a fourth-and-goal touchdown to Daniel Hill—to cap the decisive drive. The win moves Alabama to 5-1 and 3-0 in the SEC, snapping Missouri’s 15-game home streak and delivering the Tigers’ first loss.
