Texas and Mississippi State have played 16 times before, and the Longhorns hold a 9-7 edge in the all-time series. Texas made its SEC debut last season with a sweep of Mississippi State in Starkville, but the Bulldogs' 2021 NCAA title team did eliminate Texas from the College World Series.
This series dates back to 1922, but perhaps the biggest games between the two schools were played during the Bulldogs last visit to Austin in 1983. With Texas hosting the NCAA Central Regional, Mississippi State pushed UT to the brink of elimination with a 6-2 win on May 27, 1983. Two days later, Texas secured the regional and continued its march to a national championship with 7-0 and 12-3 wins over the Bulldogs.
Those games between Texas and Mississippi State featured nine players who would eventually reach the major leagues. Texas had Bill Bates, Mike Brumley, Roger Clemens, Jeff Hearron, Calvin Schiraldi and Jose Tolentino on its roster while Mississippi State was led by Jeff Brantley, Will Clark and Rafael Palmeiro.
