Mississippi State faces South Carolina on Thursday, March 10th, 2022 at Amalie Arena for a college basketball SEC tournament matchup. 

Mississippi State ended the regular season with a 67-64 loss to Texas A&M on the road back on March 5th. Mississippi State lost three of its last four games down the stretch to end the year under .500 in SEC play at 8-10. Mississippi State faced South Carolina back on February 23rd in a 66-56 road loss for the Bulldogs. Mississippi State has looked strong at times this season, but overall the Bulldogs have been inconsistent on both sides of the ball. Mississippi State’s leading scorer is G Iverson Molinar, who has scored 17.8 points per game and has earned 3.6 assists per game. Mississippi State as a team has scored 71.2 points per game and has shot the ball at a 45.7% clip from the field. Mississippi State has also allowed 66.7 points per game to its opponents. 

South Carolina is coming off an 82-71 loss to Auburn in its regular-season finale on the road on March 5th. South Carolina did win three of its last five games to end the season, including a 2-point home victory over LSU on February 19th. South Carolina is 18-12 overall and is right at .500 in conference play with a 9-9 record. South Carolina’s leading scorer this season is G Jermaine Couisnard, who has scored 12.2 points per game and earned 3.1 assists per game. South Carolina as a team has scored 71.6 points per game and has shot the ball at a 42.8% clip from the field. South Carolina has also allowed 70.2 points per game to its opponents as well.

Mississippi State is a 4-point favorite and the total is set at 137.5. I think this game should be rather competitive and I think we are getting some value with the underdog in this one. Mississippi State has been too inconsistent for me to lay more than a basket with it in a conference tournament setting. I think the Gamecocks keep this close and have a shot to win it outright.
