Kentucky beat Mississippi State in Overtime

The Kentucky Wildcats narrowly escaped with an overtime win against the Mississippi State Bulldogs. The final score was 81-75. John Wall and DeMarcus Cousins proved to be big factors in the game with their scoring. Bledsoe also played well towards the end of the game. He scored some crucial points as well. When Kentucky decides to play hard and smart, they are difficult to beat. This team is loaded with so much talent. They will no doubt be a tough team to play against during March Madness.

Credit must be given to Mississippi State. They were not intimidated by this highly talented Kentucky team. For Mississippi to take this team into overtime was impressive. They played well throughout the whole game but lost in the end. Mississippi was also missing one its key players who apparently was suspended by the team for displaying poor behavior. If this key player would have played, it is very possible that the Bulldogs would have beaten Kentucky. Mississippi has proven that they are a good team and if they end up in the NCAA tournament, they can give teams problems.
