Walking away with a victory didn't always seem like a possibility for the No. 11 Missouri Tigers, after narrowly defeating Vanderbilt 30-27. The Tigers dropped out of the top-ten in both major polls after the close call.

There was never a comftorable moment for the Tigers in their win, but they did improve to 4-0. The nature of their win makes it hard for them to rise up any polls, but challenging to drop them since their record did improve.

Missouri gets a week off after a tough win and travel to College Station to challenge Texas A&M on October 5 at 11 a.m.

This story will be updated when the AP Poll is released at 1 p.m. CT.
