After winning back-to-back games and hitting the road with some confidence, the South Carolina Gamecocks saw their hot streak snapped by the Mississippi State Bulldogs, falling 72-68 in overtime on Saturday in Starkville, Miss.
The Gamecocks faced the Bulldogs for the second time this season, previously losing 81-76 in Columbia after a late rally fell short.
South Carolina jumped out to an early lead in this one to post a 32-25 halftime advantage, but the Gamecocks turned it over 21 times and lost for the first time this season after holding a first half lead.
