Jayden Daniels passed for 259 yards and three touchdowns and ran for 130 yards and another TD as No. 23 LSU rallied past No. 21 Missouri 49-39 Saturday in Columbia, Mo.

Missouri (5-1, 1-1 in the Southeastern Conference) built a 22-7 lead with 10:47 left in the second quarter before LSU (4-2, 3-1 SEC) climbed back into the game.

On its first possession Missouri marched 87 yards on nine plays to take an 8-0 lead. Cook threw an 18-yard touchdown pass to Wease, then ran in the two-point conversion.

LSU responded with a 75-yard scoring drive capped by Diggs' 1-yard TD plunge.

Missouri regained the lead 15-7 on its own 75-yard touchdown drive, with Schrader finishing with a 21-yard scoring run. Cook's 9-yard TD pass to Brett Norfleet pushed the margin to 22-7.

Harrison Mevis hit a 50-yard field as the first half ended to extend Missouri's lead to 25-17.

Ramos hit a 29-yard field goal to cut LSU's deficit to 25-20 early in the second half, then LSU surged ahead 27-25 on Daniels' 42-yard touchdown pass to Thomas.

Schrader's 51-yard run led to his 2-yard TD plunge as Missouri retook the lead 32-27. Daniels answered with a 35-yard touchdown run and a two-point conversion pass to Nabers as LSU moved ahead 35-32.

Cook's 42-yard pass to Burden set up Schrader's 1-yard touchdown run as Missouri took a 39-35 lead with 5:40 left in the game. But LSU responded quickly with Daniels' 29-yard TD pass to Nabers to move up 42-39.
