On Monday afternoon Mississippi State announced the completion of the 2024-25 basketball schedule with the addition of the last two games. Those last additions include a home game against Georgia State on Nov. 8 and a Power 5 matchup with Utah in Southaven, Miss., on Nov. 17th.

Last month saw State receive its full slate for the SEC season, as well. The Bulldogs open their SEC schedule with a home game against South Carolina on Jan. 4th while opening their SEC road schedule at Vanderbilt, either on Jan. 7th or Jan. 8th. Mississippi State will host Kentucky on Jan. 11th before traveling to face Auburn either on Jan. 14th or Jan. 15th.

Also in January, the Bulldogs host Ole Miss on Jan. 21st and will also host Alabama either on Jan. 28th or Jan. 29th. State also has January road trips to Tennessee on Jan. 21st and to South Carolina on Jan. 25th.

In the month of February, the Bulldogs will host Missouri on Feb. 1st, Florida on Feb. 11 or Feb. 12th along with Texas A&M on Feb. 18th or Feb. 19th. Also in February, State will travel to Georgia on Feb. 8th, to Ole Miss on Feb. 15th, to Oklahoma on Feb. 22 and to Alabama on Feb. 25th or Feb. 26th.

Then in March to wrap up the SEC schedule, State will host LSU on March 1st, host Texas on March 4th or March 5th, and then travel to Arkansas on March 8th in the regular-season finale.

Mississippi State’s non-conference schedule also features road trips to Memphis and SMU along with a home battle against Pittsburgh in the debut of the SEC/ACC Challenge. The Bulldogs will also face another NCAA Tournament team from a year ago in McNeese State and that game is slated to be held in Tupelo. The Bulldogs will also meet Central Michigan in Jackson on December 17th.

From a tournament standpoint in the non-conference schedule, State will face UNLV in an opening-round game in the Arizona Tip-Off in Tempe, Arizona, on November 28th. The Bulldogs will then face either Butler or Northwestern the following night. Under Jans, State has won non-conference tournament championships in the two previous seasons.
