Nick Florence passed for a school-record 427 yards and three touchdowns and ran for a fourth, spurring a second-half comeback in a 40-32 victory on Saturday.

Baylor had lost 23 straight games when trailing at halftime since erasing an 18-point deficit at Colorado on Oct. 7, 2006, and won at Missouri for the first time in 36 years.

"Nick makes a lot of people believe in him," Baylor coach Art Briles said. "He's a rally guy. People kind of rally around him."

Kendall Wright set career highs with 10 receptions for 149 yards and two touchdowns as the Bears (4-5 overall, 1-4 Big 12 Conference) ended a 13-game conference road losing streak, beat Missouri for the first time in eight tries in conference play and produced their first road victory against the Tigers since Sept. 23, 1973.

Baylor, worst in the conference against the run, rallied from an 11-point halftime deficit and held Missouri to 10 yards rushing on 25 carries.

"Start fast, play strong, finish strong - that's all it comes down to," said wide receiver David Gettis, who had eight catches for 110 yards. "When we play fast tempo and keep the ball, give the defense a break, they get to make plays like they did today."

Danario Alexander had a career-high 13 receptions for 214 yards and two scores for Missouri (5-4, 1-4), which has lost three straight at home for the first time since 2004.
