Wednesday night’s match-up between\u00a0Kentucky<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Arkansas<\/strong>\u00a0went into overtime and was won at the buzzer, and the sneaker competition between the two teams was just as close.

Kentucky finally came out of their comfort zone and laced up a wide array of\u00a0Air Jordan<\/strong>\u00a0retros and\u00a0Nike Basketball<\/strong>\u00a0models, while Arkansas continued their recent run of stellar sneakers to hold court.
