The Washington Huskies aren’t a group of guys that the Mississippi State baseball team can take lightly. Yes, Washington is one of two teams in the College World Series without 40 wins. However, the other team without 40 wins is this Mississippi State baseball team.
Like Mississippi State, Washington found itself battling against expectations for much of this season. The Huskies had to overcome odds that were stacked against them and everything that came with that. Going 10-13 against out-of-conference opponents will make many teams overlook you.
But Washington responded by winning 20 of their 30 Pac-12 games this season.
