ST. LOUIS (AP) — Jamal Roberts had 34 carries for a career-best 222 yards and two touchdowns, and Cayden Lee caught seven passes for 94 yards and a touchdown to help No. 14 Missouri beat Texas A&M 27-6 on Saturday.

The Tigers (5-1, 2-1 Southeastern Conference), who have won two straight, also got a pair of 50-plus yard field goals from Blake Craig while Austin Simmons completed 14 of 28 passes for 147 yards and a touchdown.

Marcel Reed led Texas A&M (3-3, 1-3) by completing 19 of 39 passes for 189 yards, but he was intercepted twice and lost 18 yards on seven carries.

Roberts sealed the game with a 54-yard touchdown run with 2:49 remaining after he extended Missouri’s lead to 20-3 on a one-yard scoring run at the end of the third quarter that was awarded on video review after he was initially ruled down short of the end zone.

The Aggies came close to scoring their first touchdown of the game early in the fourth quarter, but Nicholas Rodriguez tackled Ashton Bethel-Roman for a two-yard loss and the Aggies had to settle for a 27-yard field goal from David Olano.

Simmons connected with Lee for a 32-yard touchdown pass early in the second quarter to give Missouri a 7-3 lead after Olano kicked a 53-yard field to give Texas A&M its only lead with 4:46 left in the first quarter.

TJ Searcy tipped a pass attempt from Simmons to Daymion Sanford, who returned it to Missouri’s 14-yard line with 9:53 remaining in the first quarter.

It was Simmons’ first interception after not throwing a pick in his first 139 passing attempts with the Tigers.

Missouri wore a heart-shaped sticker on their helmets with the initials “DJ” on it to honor freshman offensive lineman Johnnie “DJ” Jones, who underwent a heart transplant at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville on Wednesday.

Texas A&M: Struggled to move the ball against Missouri’s defense as Reed was sacked three times and hurried at least a dozen others. Coach Mike Elko lost for the first time in nine October games with the Aggies and falls to 5-6 against ranked opponents during his tenure in College Station.

Missouri: Simmons had trouble connecting with receivers other than Lee, who had 13 of the Tigers’ 27 targets, but Roberts broke out in the second half by gaining 157 of his 222 yards.

Texas A&M: Hosts the Citadel next Saturday.

Missouri: Travels to No. 9 Mississippi next Saturday.
