The reigning national champions begin SEC play this weekend, as No. 2 LSU heads to Starkville for a three-game set with Mississippi State. 

The Tigers are yet to suffer from any sort of championship hangover, roaring out of the gates with a 16-2 record to start the season. Alabama transfer Luke Holman has yet to allow a run this season, hurling 24 scoreless innings with 40 strikeouts across four starts to begin his LSU career; immediately, he has helped fill the void left behind by Paul Skenes, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft.

The lineup, meanwhile, is equally potent. Every starting player has an OPS above .830, including 2023 first-team All-American Tommy White, who serves as the anchor. 

Mississippi State (13-5) has struggled through its non-conference schedule, including a 2-1, 11-inning victory over New Orleans on Wednesday night. 

The Bulldogs are led by slugging sophomore outfielder Dakota Jordan, who boasts team-highs in average (.415), slugging percentage (.938) and home runs (nine), among other offensive categories.
