If State doesn't have all of the injuries, do they blow out the rest of the league? They are winning series with guys that would have pitched/played minimally.

You never know. It might be that all the adversity caused this bunch to be as tough as they are.

Did Rooker get injured? The pitchers you're missing are no better than the ones your using.

MSU is gonna run away with it anyway, with a probable sweep next weekend...State scored 10 runs against Ole Miss in the weekend series, and got a sweep. Everyone thought that they would fold when they played the heavy hitters in the conference, because of a depleted pitching staff...well, they just beat a heavy hitter in A&M by a 4-3 score. They are not gonna fold. They win by out hitting teams, and they win by handcuffing teams at the plate. They are the best team in the SEC. Hats off to state college/starksville.

Not injured; just walked in most critical situations.

I think all the injuries have spurred this team on. Each player realizes that they all have to make a contribution.
Plus they will battle to the end. Does not matter if they are down.
Tremendous series win at A&M after getting drilled on Thursday night.

And he should be. Still factoring in every single win.

The baseball team has become the avatar of "the grind."

Take away thursday, the pitching look fairly good. State didn't have a midweek game and don't have one next week. To have a very limited pitching staff, the extra rest could have helped this staff.

Congrats on the series win. That last game killed me. We gave it away.

There are a couple of relievers that were on preseason watch lists that were pretty damn good. I believe they would have made a difference.

not even close to true, but even if it was, just having more arms would help tremendously

1 team has one a series against Auburn. Of those 1, one is not Mississippi State.

11 SEC basketball games Auburn lost. Of those 11, one is not Mississippi State.

3 SEC teams beat Auburn in football. Of those 3, one is not Mississippi State.

Gutsy performance this series by State. After Thursday's game, it looked pretty dire for them but they gritted it out. We had been playing good defense since the early season letdown, but errored it up on Friday and Saturday.

State pitching really stepped it up.
