The Bulldogs are one of several teams competing in Gulfport, Mississippi, this weekend.
The No. 23 Mississippi State Bulldogs head to Gulfport, Miss., for a four-game slate starting Friday that features a Saturday matchup with No. 24 Baylor on Saturday.
The Bulldogs (10-0) come into the Mississippi Gulf Coast Classic undefeated after knocking off then-No. 23 South Alabama, Southern Mississippi, SIU-Edwardsville, Samford, and Southeastern Louisiana over the past weekend and Monday.
The victories propelled the Bulldogs into the ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25 this week, and the No. 23 ranking is the highest for the Bulldogs in this poll since April 2008.
