Alabama remains ‘unbreakable’ in SEC play. How that showed against Missouri
Kalen DeBoer made sure he talked to Lotzeir Brooks postgame.
The Alabama coach walked off Faurot Field with his freshman receiver, putting his arm around Brooks.
“I was just telling him I’m proud of him for pretty much what I just told you, how hard he works, just the plays he makes,” DeBoer said postgame. “A year ago we were not making the plays in the critical moments to win games. That was a big play to go win a football game and he did it and our team needed him and he came through.”
Brooks had secured a fourth-down catch to extend a drive that resulted in the game-winning touchdown. It was one of the most important plays in a game No. 8 Alabama outlasted No. 14 Missouri 27-24 on Saturday at Faurot Field in Columbia, Missouri. The Crimson Tide (5-1, 3-0 SEC) has now won three consecutive games against ranked opponents.
In each of those games, Alabama has displayed resiliency not often seen in 2024. Each win has oozed grit.
“I think it’s just our team,” linebacker Deontae Lawson said. “We pride ourselves on being unbreakable. That’s our team slogan. We just know that we’re going to execute in those situations. That’s something we practice every day. We’ve been preaching it all year long. It just happened to show up today and we’re going to continue to build on that.”
Each side of the ball had their moments of stumbles, but they each proved resilient. Case in point: Alabama’s offense started the second half with a fumble on the first play. Quarterback Ty Simpson faced pressure and gave up the football. Alabama couldn’t score a touchdown for most of the rest of the second half. Then Simpson managed to pull off the vital fourth-quarter drive in which he threw the pass to Brooks and also threw a touchdown pass to Daniel Hill on fourth-and-1.
As for the defense, it allowed Missouri the chance to drive down the field and score a touchdown in response with 1:39 left. The Tigers trailed by only three after that.
Then Alabama’s offense went three-and-out. Missouri would get the ball back one more time, only needing a field goal to tie it.
Then the Crimson Tide defense rallied. Freshman cornerback Dijon Lee picked off Missouri quarterback Beau Pribula to seal the victory.
“We’ve got the edge we need,” Lawson said. “It helps us when we’re in enemy territory or an away game or anything like that. We know we’ve got to bring our own juice. We preach all week and all year long to be elite in critical situations. Coach DeBoer he makes sure he emphasizes that every weekend. It showed up today.”

Water Safety Tips from Missouri State Highway Patrol – Ozark Radio News
As summer recreation ramps up across Missouri, safety officials are reminding residents that water safety begins long before anyone steps into a lake or river. Understanding the risks of water activities, knowing personal limits, and making responsible choices are the foundation of preventing tragedies on the water.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol and other safety agencies emphasize that natural waterways can present hidden hazards, including strong currents, sudden drop‑offs, and floating debris. Swimmers are urged to stay aware of their surroundings, use life jackets when appropriate, and avoid swimming alone.

Officials say simple precautions—such as recognizing fatigue, monitoring weather conditions, and watching out for others in your group—can make the difference between a fun day on the water and a dangerous situation. As families head outdoors, authorities encourage everyone to treat water safety as a shared responsibility.

Date set for Missouri basketball vs Kansas in Border War game
The date for the last matchup in the current Border War series is set.
Missouri men’s basketball will face Kansas in the Border War game on Dec. 6 at T-Mobile Center in Kansas City, according to a post from the Jayhawks’ official X/Twitter account Tuesday. The tipoff time and TV designation for the matchup will be released at a later date.
Kansas released its full nonconference schedule Tuesday, including the sixth and final game against Mizzou on the current competition contract.
The historic rivals have not yet signed a contract to renew the series beyond this season, according to a recent batch of competition contracts obtained by the Tribune through an open records request.
Missouri is yet to announce its nonconference schedule for the 2026-27 season, but there are three other known or reported games for this upcoming season.
Mizzou will face Howard at Mizzou Arena in the last leg of a three-game series, which will take place on a still-to-be-determined date.
The Tigers also have three more neutral-site games on their schedule. The annual Braggin’ Rights matchup against Illinois likely will fall in mid- or late- December at Enterprise Center, and Mizzou has agreed to a Nov. 15 trip to United Center in Chicago to face Marquette. Missouri also reportedly will face Saint Louis on Nov. 6 at Enterprise Center, according to Jon Rothstein at CBS Sports and College Hoops Today.
This season’s Border War matchup will include the first direct transfer between the two schools when Bryson Tiller suits up for Missouri after spending last season, his freshman year, at Kansas.
KU has won four of the five games since the series was renewed in 2021, including an 80-60 win in Kansas City last season. Missouri won the 2024-25 season matchup at Mizzou Arena, but has not beaten Kansas outside of Columbia since 2003.
