With Missouri's running game struggling with injuries, quarterback Maty Mauk took over.
The junior threw three touchdown passes and accounted for 223 yards to lead the No. 21 Tigers to a 27-20 comeback victory over Arkansas State on Saturday night.
Missouri (2-0) extended its road winning streak to 11 games by rallying from a 17-10 halftime deficit. It did so behind the arm and legs of Mauk, who matched the second-highest rushing total of his career with 75 yards on 10 carries.
