Mississippi State's SEC Tournament Journey

0:00On March 2nd, Mississippi State Women's Basketball team wrapped up the regular season with an 18 wins, 12 losses record overall, and 5 wins. 11 losses in the SEC. They fell 72-63 to LSU on senior day, landing them the number 13 seed in the SEC tournament. Now they face number 12 Florida on Wednesday at 12.30pm in Greenville. Earlier this week, the Bulldogs hit a rough patch with four straight conference losses to Florida, Texas A&M, Missouri, and LSU. That skid dropped them from a promising spot and cost them in the standings, especially since Florida grabbed the tiebreaker with their earlier win-in, Starkville. Fans and analysts see this as a make or break moment for postseason hopes. A loss here ramps up the stress heading into Selection Sunday, while the win could steady the ship and boost their NCAA tournament case after hanging. Tough against top teams. If Mississippi State pulls off the upset against Florida, they'll take on number 5 Oklahoma in the second round on Thursday.

1:02Oklahoma dominated them 95-47 earlier this season, making it a tough follow-up draw in the lower bracket. The Bulldogs just need one solid win to halt the slide and show they're still in the fight, setting the tone for whatever comes next in the tournament.
