Texas A&M-Corpus Christi @ Mississippi State

What to Know

The Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Islanders and the Mississippi State Bulldogs are opening their 2022-2023 seasons against one another at 7:30 p.m. ET Monday at Humphrey Coliseum. Texas A&M-Corpus Christi went 23-12 last season and made it as far as the NCAA tournament play-in game but was eliminated by the Texas Southern Tigers 76-67. MSU had to settle for an NIT appearance, where they were knocked out 60-57 by the Virginia Cavaliers.

Since the experts predict a loss, the Islanders will need to dig deep. Perhaps they'll be able to flip the script and come out with a big win.
