Mississippi State Baseball Forecast: Post-Snowpocolypse Edition
So after we had three inches of snow fall on campus, and many beautiful photos of our athletic facilities, the ranked Bulldogs will return to Dudy Noble Field for more baseball action. This time, Samford and Arizona will travel to Starkville to take part in this three-team event. Earlier today, Arizona AD, and former Mississippi State AD, Greg Byrne sent a joking tweet concerning Dudy Noble being covered in snow.
Needless to say, it provided some entertainment during the “Snowpocolypse” that Starkville residents went through Wednesday. The weekend’s game shave been pushed up in time, due to the strong possibility of rain and thunderstorms Sunday. This should provide some leeway for the games, in case this system decides to speed up throughout the course of the weekend.
