Diamond Dawgs prepared for battle with Auburn

Mississippi State faces one of its toughest tests of the season this weekend. Robbie Faulk breaks down what Auburn brings to the table — a battle-tested pitching staff, five consecutive series wins, and a program that plays with confidence on the road. Faulk digs into Auburn's expected rotation and what Mississippi State's offense needs to do to be successful, including staying disciplined, stringing hits together, and avoiding the strikeout-heavy approach that hurt them in Austin. The national seed picture is still very much alive.
