The blitzes the A&M defense ran against Missouri were simple in concept, but the second blitzer through the same gap puts the OG/C in conflict.  The DL creates a gap between the OG/OC by slanting away from it, and Elko was having 2 guys run through the same A gap with a slight delay for the second blitzer due to starting slightly deeper.  The RB takes the "most immediate" threat to the QB (usually the first one he sees, leaving the second blitzer running full speed at the QB unless the OG or OC manage to slow him down.  Missouri's OL didn't come up with a solution.

I noticed that as well. Thought I saw them use a coffee house blitz a few times too. Definitely isolated weaknesses of the Mizzou OL.
