Now this was an offensive performance of which Mizzou fans could be proud.
Former Tigers kicker Andrew Baggett stole the show at Saturday’s NFLPA Collegiate Bowl.
Baggett scored all of the National team’s points in its narrow 18-17 victory against the Americans.
In total, Baggett made six field goals, earning himself the game’s MVP award:
- 2nd quarter: 42 yards
- 2nd quarter: 50 yards
- 2nd quarter: 42 yards
- 3rd quarter: 39 yards
- 4th quarter: 24 yards
- 4th quarter: 23 yards

Auburn WR Ricardo Louis led Baggett’s team in receiving with three catches for 37 yards.
Earning a kicking job in the NFL is particularly hard given the longevity of kickers and the fact that only 32 jobs exist, but Baggett certainly helped his case to get into some NFL team’s camp to show his stuff after a performance like this.
