Mississippi St. Bulldogs
The Mississippi State Bulldogs have had a strong start to the season, winning all four of their home games by an average margin of 24 points. However, their performance on the road last year raises concerns about their ability to succeed away from home. Offensively, the team has been impressive, averaging 88.5 points per game led by standout player Josh Hubbard. With room for improvement in their three-point shooting, the Bulldogs are a dangerous team on both ends of the floor. Their recent win over the Utah Utes showcased their defensive prowess, holding their opponents to a low number of free throw attempts and three-pointers made. The team is currently ranked 33rd in offense and 74th in defense, with a 4-0 record this season. Their shooting percentages and rebounding numbers rank in the top 100 nationally, while their defensive statistics also show strength in limiting opponents' shooting percentages. Overall, the Bulldogs have shown promise and potential for success in the upcoming season.
