Mizzou CB Aarion Penton now leads all SEC defenders in interceptions, snagging his fifth of the season in a huge situation for the Tigers on Friday evening.
Locked in a tight battle with Arkansas, Penton made the play on fourth down to end a Razorback threat.
After getting gashed by a long screen pass to RB Rawleigh Williams III, the Mizzou defense tightened up and prevented the Hogs from scoring.
The Tigers are currently clinging to a narrow 28-24 lead over Arkansas, but the Hogs are driving with less than two minutes left.
