Here’s everything you need to catch the men’s Mississippi State basketball team face off against the South Carolina Gamecocks this evening.

Ben Howland has taken his Mississippi State basketball team on the road this evening. The No. 14 Bulldogs (12-1 overall, 0-0 SEC) are all the way over in Columbia, South Carolina for their Southeastern Conference schedule opener tonight against the South Carolina Gamecocks (6-7 overall, 1-0 SEC).

South Carolina shocked some folks to get their first SEC win of the year. The Gamecocks weren’t expected to defeat the Florida Gators, but that’s exactly what happened. Meanwhile, the Mississippi Sate basketball team has taken a bit of an extended break.

Technically, MSU hasn’t played at all this year. The Bulldogs haven’t touched the basketball court since December 29th, 2018 when they throttled the BYU Cougars.

Prediction

Ben Howland’s Bulldogs have been a notably more complete team this season than the South Carolina Gamecocks have been so far this year.

The Mississippi State basketball team is ranked as the 14th best team in the country at the moment for a very good reason the Bulldogs are winning games and taking teams down in notable fashion.

South Carolina, on the other hand, is far from being a decent foe. The Gamecocks have struggle all season and, even though they took down the Florida Gators, they should not be expected to come out on top here.
