NU was plus on turnovers --- losing two, but taking three.  Ruud
had a big day with 5 solo and 7 total tackles, a sack for a 13yd
loss, an interception with a 40yd return, and a fumble recovery
with a seven yard return.  His play was really important with
McKeon and Octavien out.  Jay Moore made some pretty good plays
too.

NU had 186 yds on 47 carries, had a 10min advantage in ToP, and
converted on six drives with three of them over 50yds.

> and stop Missouri from converting on third down, which NU has not
done so well and faces a challenge with Missouri

This was an area that NU did very well.  Missouri was only 3-13 on
third down.  That is a great perfromance.  Unfortunately, Missouri
was 3-4 on fourth down, so several of those third down stops didn't
pay off as well as they might have.

That is a huge win for the program.  A win next week with a home
game against a really struggling CU would really add momentum.
