First, there’s pitcher Dakota Hudson. Hudson has been one of the best pitchers in college baseball this season, and he’ll be counted on to lead the Bulldogs in Omaha.
Next, there’s outfielder Jake Mangum Mangum is a gifted hitter who can also play solid defense in the outfield. He’ll be a key player for Mississippi State all tournament long.
Finally, keep an eye on third baseman Gavin Collins. Collins is another excellent hitter who has been red-hot lately. He’s also a very good Defensive Player which will be important in the CWS.
The team’s path to the CWS
It took a little longer than they would have liked, but the Bulldogs are headed to Omaha for the first time since 2007. Here’s a look at their path to the College World Series

Their first game in Omaha will be against Oregon State on Saturday, June 16th. The Beavers are the top seed in the tournament and come into Omaha with a 54-4 record. They’re also the defending National Champions so the Bulldogs will have their work cut out for them.
The winner of that game will move on to play either UNC or Oklahoma State on Monday, June 18th. The loser will play an elimination game against either of those teams on Sunday, June 17th.

The CWS predictions
The Mississippi State Baseball team is headed to the College World Series for the first time in program history. They will face off against the University of Oregon in the first round.
The Bulldogs are no strangers to success, as they have been one of the best teams in the country over the past few years. They have won back-to-back SEC titles and have made four straight trips to the NCAA tournament
MSU is one of the favorites to win it all this year, as they are ranked No. 4 in the nation and have one of the best pitching staffs in the country. If they can get past Oregon, they will likely face No. 1 Florida in the second round.
The Bulldogs have all the pieces to make a run at a National Championship but they will need to play their best baseball of the year if they want to bring home Mississippi’s first ever College World Series title.
