Twitter reaction to Kentucky’s last-second win over Mississippi State
Kentucky was behind, then ahead, then seemingly in control, then behind again.
On a truly Kentucky football kind of night, the Wildcats flipped the script Saturday against Mississippi State at Commonwealth Stadium.
A 51-yard field goal by Austin MacGinnis as time expired lifted UK to a stunning 40-38 victory.
Reaction on Twitter came fast and furious. Here’s a sampling:
AUSTIN. MACGINNIS. FOR. THE. WIN!!!

Seconds away from being up 17 and it being over, and then suddenly we are behind. Amazing we found a way. Young guys growing up!
