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.”

A fundraiser on Friday helped raise money for a mid-Missouri family’s effort to get their daughter medical treatment.
Hurts Donut from Springfield, Mo., traveled to Ashland to help the Kroeckel family raise money for their daughter, Harper’s, life-changing medical treatment in Italy.
“After exhausting available treatment options in the United States, the family is now pursuing specialized care that offers new hope for her future,” wrote the Hurts Donut shop in a press release. “Because the treatment, travel expenses and extended medical stays are not covered by insurance, the family is facing more than $85,000 in out-of-pocket costs.”
Harper had been born prematurely at 35 weeks and admitted to the NICU, where a nurse discovered a spot that they assumed to be diaper rash on her bottom. However, further inspection led to her diagnosis of Capillary Malformation-Arteriovenous Malformation, or CM-AVM.
CM-AVM is a genetic mutation at the cellular level that causes blood vessels in certain areas to be tangled, causing swelling, pressure, chronic pain and, in some instances, bleeding. In Harper’s case, it could potentially spread to her spine or brain.
The donut shop set up shop at the Ashland Optimists Club and donated 100% of its Special Tribute donut sales to the Kroeckel family, as well as 10% of the proceeds from its dozen donut sales.

UPDATE: Well-known mid-Missouri attorney charged after sting expected to request home detention | 93.9 The Eagle
A prominent mid-Misssouri attorney has pleaded NOT guilty to a felony charge of enticement or attempted enticement of a child.
56-year-old Daniel Walter Follett is charged in Boone County Circuit Court. He had served as the Missouri Department of Revenue’s (DOR) general counsel until he was fired after last week’s arrest.
Court documents filed by Boone County prosecutors say Follett was allegedly using a prostitution website “to solicit sexual services from a person whom he believed to be a 16-year-old child.” The Boone County Sheriff’s Department’s probable cause statement says Follett allegedly arrived at an address in Boone County last week to pay money to have sex with a female whom he believed was under the age of 17.
Follett, who is currently jailed without bond, is scheduled to appear in court Tuesday afternoon before Judge Kimberly Shaw and is expected to request home detention, based on online court records.
939 the Eagle News contacted the Missouri Department of Revenue (DOR) after Follett’s arrest. DOR released a statement about Follett’s arrest and status last week. It reads: “The Department is aware of an out-of-office incident involving a staff member who was arrested and charged with criminal activity. Following departmental procedures, employment has been terminated with the individual.”
What’s next: Follett is scheduled to appear in Boone County Circuit Court on Tuesday at 1 pm for a bond hearing before Judge Kimberly Shaw. Follett is represented by defense attorney Jessica Caldera, a former Boone County assistant prosecutor. Follett is expected to request home detention from the court until his trial. Boone County prosecutors have described Follett in a court filing as a flight risk.
