LB Kentrell Brothers added 12 tackles to his nation-leading total

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Mizzou defense held an opponent to 10 points or less for the fifth time this season but the Tigers suffered a 10-3 loss to the Vanderbilt Commodores Saturday at Vanderbilt Stadium in Nashville, Tenn.

A 16-yard completion from QB Drew Lock to WR J'Mon Moore and a 33-yard scramble from Lock put Mizzou deep into Vanderbilt territory in the final minute. The Commodores were called for defensive pass interference on fourth-and-24 set up first-and-10 and a 17-yard gain to WR Wesley Leftwich put the Tigers on the 13. Four passes into the endzone fell incomplete to halt Mizzou's comeback chance.

LB Kentrell Brothers, the nation's leading tackler, added 12 more against the Commodores to up his season total to 102. He also added a sack on a key fourth down stop in the second quarter and had 1.5 tackles-for-loss in the game.

After a scoreless opening quarter, a one-yard touchdown run from Vanderbilt's Ralph Webb gave the Commodores a 7-0 lead with 11:27 remaining in the first half.

A strip sack from DE Charles Harris set up a fumble recovery for DE Walter Brady with 2:15 left in the second. Mizzou took over at Vanderbilt's 21 in a drive that concluded in a 35-yard field goal from PK Andrew Baggett to cut the Commodore lead to 7-3.

Vanderbilt used a 14-play drive to take a 10-3 edge on a 40-yard field goal from Tommy Openshaw with just over nine minutes left in the game.

P Corey Fatony punted nine times for a 47.7 average, including two career long blasts of 61-yards.

After a bye next Saturday, Mizzou hosts Mississippi State on Thursday, Nov. 5 at 8 p.m. CT. Please refer to mutigers.com/Thursday for special Thursday night game information.
