The Ags are led on the court by their Spanish sensation Ruben Dominguez, who leads the team with 13.6 points and has been absolutely lights out from three-point land, shooting 45.6 percent from beyond the arc.

Senior forward Rashaun Agee has been just as productive for the Ags in terms of scoring and cleaning the boards, averaging 13.3 points per game and 8.7 rebounds per game, which has come from him recording a double-double in four of his last six contests.

Mississippi State is led in scoring by junior guard Josh Hubbard, who is currently sixth in the nation with 22.3 points per game averaged.

The Bulldogs sit 10-8 on the season and 2-3 in conference play, having lost their last three SEC games against the Kentucky Wildcats, Alabama Crimson Tide, and Ole Miss Rebels after defeating the Longhorns and the Oklahoma Sooners to start the conference slate.
