## Resource

For the second weekend in a row, Mississippi State let a Game 1 victory turn into a series defeat, and now enter the postseason with real questions about how far this team can actually go. Brian Hadad takes a look at what's been an unusual season for the Diamond Dawgs, and asks what will ultimately be the fate of Coach Brian O'Connor's first team in Starkville. Brian Hadad of SportsTalk Mississippi and Carlo Barone, along with legendary Diamond Dawg Brooks Bryan, give you the best insight into Mississippi State athletics. Covering the Bulldogs like no one else. This show is a production of SuperTalk Mississippi Media. Learn more at SuperTalk.FM
