Missouri kicker Harrison Mevis trolled Florida with the Chomp after hitting game-winning FG

When you beat Florida on a game-winning field goal, you do the Chomp.

Missouri pulled out the win against Florida in the game’s final moments on Saturday with a field goal from none other than kicker Harrison Mevis.

Being that the victory came against the Gators and all, Mevis knew exactly how to commemorate his game-winning kick to get the Tigers to 9-2.

Right after nailing the field goal, Mevis celebrated by doing the Gator Chomp that Florida players and fans have become accustomed to doing every Saturday in the fall.

Oh yeah, Mevis hit them with the Chomp, and it was beautiful. It’s so wonderful that words just cannot do it justice. You have to see it for yourself.

If that’s not the best taunting Chomp directed at Florida that we’ve seen in a long time, we’re not sure what is.

Mevis has become one of college football’s most entertaining kickers this season, and he continued his compelling streak with this terrific game winner and perfect ensuing celebration.

Missouri nails a 61-yard field goal to beat Kansas State

Missouri remains perfect after an unlikely field goal from 61 yards out.

We haven’t seen the Missouri Tigers and Kansas State Wildcats face off in Columbia since 2010. The Tigers won that matchup 38-28. The Wildcats were able to take care of business last year but this time Mizzou had other plans.

It was close throughout the game and it felt like the team with the ball last was going to win the game. After an inexcusable delay of game penalty, the Tigers and kicker Harrison Mevis lined up for a 61-yard attempt to win the game.

The “thicker kicker” was up to the challenge as Missouri looked to keep their perfect record in tact.

Here is how social media reacted to the game.
