Dak Prescott threw his first interception of the season, but that was the only mistake he made Saturday night. Prescott threw for 348 yards, rushed for 117 yards, and for the first time in his career, he scored six total touchdowns to lead Mississippi State past Kentucky, 42-16.
For Prescott, his streak of passes without an interception ended at 288, which is third all-time in the SEC behind Andre Woodson (325) and AJ McCarron (291).
What this wins means for Mississippi State: Before Dan Mullen arrived, Mississippi State had played in 13 bowl games in the program’s history, dating back to 1895.
