Projected seed: 3

Mississippi State has built a strong resume with notable wins against quality opponents like Memphis and Pittsburgh, showcasing their competitive edge. The offense has shown inconsistency, particularly in their recent loss to Butler, while the defense fluctuates but has strength in the middle of the season. Upcoming games against top-tier teams like Kentucky and Alabama will be pivotal; victories in these matchups would bolster their standing significantly. However, disappointing results against lesser-ranked teams could undermine their position, especially with challenging road games against Auburn and Tennessee looming. Their ability to navigate this gauntlet will be crucial in solidifying their NCAA tournament seed.
