Bledsoe turns heads with unbelievable interception, OL share their thoughts on practice
Mizzou Football held its fifth practice of the spring training period Tuesday (March 12) inside the Devine Pavilion. In what was another solid workout, a spirited 11-on-11 period led to a couple of highlight-reel plays. The most impressive of those plays was an interception by rising junior S Joshuah Bledsoe, who caught a deflected pass over the middle behind his back, one-handed, before hauling it in for the interception. The defense was riled up by the play, which was one of the most electric of spring camp thus far.
Did ?@jiggybled? pick that off behind his back? ??

The turnover is reason for excitement for a defensive group that has been stingy in that area throughout spring camp so far. Forcing more turnovers has been a point of emphasis the group this season, and Bledsoe has been a ballhawk for the Tigers on the back end during the spring training period.
Mizzou Network's Ben Arnet caught up with another group of Mizzou standouts after Tuesday's practice, interviewing OG Tre'Vour Wallace-Simms and LT Yasir Durant. Both should be key cogs along an offensive line unit that has been one of the nation's most dominant groups over the past three seasons. Below are the interviews.
