I don’t know about you, but I’m still catching my breath. Kentucky won a wild one in Starkville 95-90, extending its regular season win streak to 19 over the Bulldogs from Mississippi State.

Jaxson Robinson was an absolute flamethrower. We’d been waiting for his big moment, and he delivered in a big way on the road. Robinson sank 7-10 threes and scored 27 points in his best game as a Wildcat.

After struggling to find the bottom of the net in Athens, the Cats were unconscious behind the three-point line at The Hump. Kentucky buried 16-32 from long range and none felt as big as Ansley Almonor‘s. Kentucky trailed by two with 7 minutes to play when he hit the first of three straight three-pointers to give the Cats the lead for good.

Mark Pope was still looking for his first win in a true road game. Kentucky was ready for the physicality and dictated the style of play. The track meet was exciting as hell but also exhausting. Relive that crazy sprint with these highlights from Starkville.
