The play highlights exactly why Hall is Lock’s favorite target — after beating the cornerback, Hall makes two defenders miss before turning on the jets and sprinting to the end zone. What’s even better for Missouri is that it can on a free play because a Razorbacks defender jumped offside before the snap.
Hall and Lock put the Tigers up 35-0 with more than eight minutes to play in the third quarter. Missouri now holds a 38-point lead heading into the third quarter, and Hall already has six catches for 153 yards and two scores.
