Mississippi State made Super Bulldog Weekend historical, too.
The 15th-ranked Bulldogs got 4 RBIs from Ace Reese and 3 hits from Noah Sullivan, staging their third late-inning rally in as many days to take down defending national champion and SEC rival LSU, 13-8, before a happy home crowd in Starkville.
That crowd witnessed some glorious Bulldogs baseball history on Sunday, with Mississippi State completing its first sweep of LSU since 1985. The Bulldogs trailed going into the bottom of the sixth inning in each game of the series, with LSU holding a 7-5 lead on Friday, a 7-2 lead on Saturday and an 8-5 lead on Sunday before Mississippi State stormed back each time.
On Sunday, there were multiple deficits to overcome for the Bulldogs, who trailed 3-0 after the first inning and 5-3 after the third frame before that 8-5 deficit was staring them in the face in the sixth inning. But Mississippi State, which improved to 34-10 overall and 13-8 in the SEC after the thrilling weekend of work, scored the final 8 runs of Sunday’s game, piling up 12 hits and drawing 7 walks to create plenty of traffic on the bases.
Meanwhile, LSU’s nightmare season continued, with the Tigers committing 3 errors on Sunday on the way to dropping to 24-21 overall and 6-15 in the SEC.
