No. 2 Mississippi State blows by No. 17 Texas A&M 76-55 to clinch SEC title

No. 2 Mississippi State continues to make it look easy, as Victoria Vivians and Roshunda Johnson led the Bulldogs to 28-0 following a 76-55 victory over No. 17 Texas A&M. The Aggies have been a threat all season, but had no answer for head coach Vic Schaefer’s squad. It was another strong performance that left no room for error, having brought out the best in every Bulldog.

Vivians had that same look in her eye, one that will not disappear until the ultimate goal of a national championship is reached. Her 26 point and 12 rebounds came easy, as Vivians’ double-double showed why she is the nation’s best. Though with four personal fouls, she was able to finish the game. It was another day at the office for Vivians, and she continues to combine leadership with an all-around game.
