We're playing in the SEC Tournament Championship. Looking for back to back titles.

Our only loss in conference play was to Florida in Gainesville, thanks to Tennessee knocking them off in the semis, they're no longer a threat. Florida was so good that the last time they lost to a SEC team was us last year in Tuscaloosa in the same SEC Tournament we won.

We played Tennessee in Starkville on March 22nd and came out with a narrow 4-3 win. Hope we can repeat so that way we can "win championships" and "only care about State titles"

I mean they might have a better chance than baseball at a national championship. Borges is the #2 player in the country and I believe they made the quarters last year.

They've only lost 2 SEC games in the last 2 years(you play everyone in the SEC once plus tournament games).

It's actually quite enjoyable to watch if you like watching professionals. It's just got a college spin to it.

They were #6 coming into this SEC Tournament so they'll move up and host a regional for a second straight year.

I think MSU has hosted the tournament in Soccer, Women's Basketball, and Men's Tennis now. And Baseball has a great chance at this point to host as well. Man MSU is really killing it in all sports.

Not even counting that Golf, Track & Field, and Softball all look likely to go to the NCAA Tournament. And that Football, Cross Country and Men's Basketball made postseason play.

There's a possibility the only two sports that don't make the postseason this year are Women's Tennis and Volleyball. WT made it last year tho, and yeah the Volleyball program is by far the worst program we have but that coach took over a nucced program so it's not on her rn.

But my point is. Damn our athletic program from top to bottom can match up with anyone. Outside of one program, there's not any program I say is in bad shape rn. Just a few that should be better than what they are.

We defeated Alabama State 4-0 yesterday. Playing South Alabama at 10:30 today to advance to the round of 16. It's at home today and tickets are $5 and $3 for like Seniors, youth etc.

Nuno Borges was seeded as the #1 Tennis Player in college tennis by the NCAA. We've got a really good team.
