COLUMBIA, Mo. – University of Missouri football is the winner of the Pop-Tarts Crazy Good Play of the Week for Week 3, Florida Citrus Sports, Pop-Tarts and the Football Writers Association of America announced Wednesday.
The winning play is Harrison Mevis’ SEC-record 61-yard field goal on the final play that gave Missouri a 30-27 upset win over Kansas State in a game that featured five lead changes. The Tigers have now won 16 straight home non-conference games. The winning kick sent the sellout crowd of 62,621 into a tizzy as the Tigers are 3-0 for the first time since 2018.
Florida Citrus Sports and Pop-Tarts are teaming up to present the Pop-Tarts ‘Crazy Good’ Play of the Week during the 2023-24 college football season. Each week the winning play will be selected in conjunction with the FWAA. This new weekly award will celebrate the incredible athleticism, awe-inspiring strategy and jaw-dropping “did you see that?” moments from college football each week.
A select committee of FWAA members will honor one outstanding play each weekend during the regular season. Fans can nominate and vote on their favorite play through Pop-Tarts Bowl social media accounts (@PopTartsBowl).
