Missouri State put together a 40-point night against Lindenwood on Sept. 12, a burst that was driven by Skyler Locklear’s passing and Isaiah Myers’ breakout receiving line. Myers finished with 106 receiving yards, and Missouri State crossed the 40-point mark for the first time since Sep. 20, 2025, a gap that turned a strong win into a clear offensive statement.
Locklear helped set that tone in the third quarter, when he completed a 13-yard pass with 10:30 remaining and went past 200 passing yards on the game. On the same snap, Myers caught a 13-yard pass and moved beyond 100 receiving yards, then kept climbing with a 49-yard grab at 8:26 in the third quarter that pushed him past 150. That production gave Missouri State the kind of balance it had been missing, especially after not having a player reach 100 receiving yards since Dash Luke did it against Arkansas State on Dec. 18, 2025.
The scoring came from all over once Missouri State found rhythm. Ramone Green Jr. ran for a 1-yard touchdown at 11:25 in the second quarter, Skyler Locklear hit Isaiah Myers on a 72-yard touchdown pass at 10:11 in the second, and Breezy Dubar added a 10-yard touchdown run at 5:26. In the third quarter, Green scored again on a 1-yard run at 7:20, Drew Krobath caught a 15-yard touchdown at 4:14, Henry Belin IV scored on a 16-yard run with 0:07 left, and Elijah Roy finished with a 32-yard touchdown catch at 12:31 in the fourth.
Pops Battle’s night for Lindenwood had a rough turn before it recovered. He missed five consecutive passes with 14:00 left in the second quarter, then later found a rhythm with touchdown throws in the third and fourth quarters, including the 15-yard score to Krobath and the 32-yard strike to Roy. Missouri State has now gone 16 games unbeaten when leading at halftime, and while that kind of stat does not win a game by itself, it helps explain why a fast start so often becomes a finished result.
The unanswered piece is the final margin, but the shape of the game is plain enough: Missouri State did what it had not done since last fall, cleared 40 points, and did it with a quarterback-receiver combination that looked built to carry more than one game.
