Mississippi State softball set to take on South Carolina in second round of the SEC Softball Tournament

The 25th ranked Mississippi State softball team finally ended a 13 year drought of winning in the SEC Softball Tournament. Now, MSU is aiming to advance on into the SEC Tournament semifinals. That won’t be easy though. Mississippi State is now set to meet up with the 12th ranked South Carolina Gamecocks.

South Carolina is a team that ran right through MSU in the regular season, sweeping the Bulldogs with what appeared to be relative ease. South Carolina is an incredibly strong opponent and MSU will likely have issues with the Gamecocks, especially when you consider that the 3rd seeded team earned a bye and didn’t have to play yesterday while Mississippi State had to battle the Texas A&M Aggies.

Mississippi State is, in theory, a team that could beat the Gamecocks. But, well, that’s easier said and discussed in theoretical terms than it is actually done. It’s a tough feat to accomplish. It’s only happened 13 times this year.

Next: Can MSU Take Down The Gamecocks?

The Bulldogs will have to play to the top of their abilities and hope that South Carolina makes just enough crucial mistakes so that MSU can come out on top. It won’t be easy, but it is possible. Now, here’s to hoping that the Mississippi State softball team can actually do it.
