The Bulldogs take on St. John’s to open the NCAA tournament.
STARKVILLE, Miss. — The Mississippi State Bulldogs have been in the NCAA tournament since winning the national title in 2021. As the two-seed, State will start its journey on the road.
Their opponent, St. John’s, is coming off a magical run in the Big East Tournament. The Red Storm won the tournament and are playing their best baseball. However, State played well in Hoover despite some severe shortcomings on offense from their top players. A key hitter for the Bulldogs in this game is Hunter Hines.
The junior first baseman is in a slump, but perhaps his first postseason appearance will break the slump. He is essential to this team if they want to make a run. The key pitcher for State is Tyler Davis. The VCU transfer has been lights out this year for State, and he will undoubtedly be put into pressure-filled situations and must deliver.Mississippi State Bulldogs versus St. John’s Red Storm TV:St Johns won their previous game 4-2 over Georgetown in the Big East conference tournament championship game.
