Maroon and White Nation’s official podcast is officially back! For real this time!

The Maroon and White Audible is here to take a look at the most recent Mississippi State Bulldogs game and news. On this particular episode, Ethan Lee takes a look at the upcoming rivalry game between Vic Schaefer’s 7th ranked Mississippi State basketball team and the 15th ranked South Carolina Gamecocks led by Dawn Staley.

This game could truly go a long way to impacting the big picture of the SEC this season. In all honesty, these two teams have set the standard and defined excellence in women’s basketball in the Southeastern Conference over the past few seasons. This particular rivalry battle might be what separates the eventual SEC champ from the second place team in the SEC.

It isn’t a stretch to say that these two teams, just as in recent seasons, will be at the top of the Southeastern Conference yet again. The Bulldogs and the Gamecocks have been the two best teams in the SEC over the past few seasons and have even competed against each other for a national title.

This Mississippi State basketball game is huge for the SEC.
