STARKVILLE — Mississippi State women’s basketball returns to Humphrey Coliseum on Thursday looking to snap a two-game losing streak. A favorable opportunity to do so awaits.
Kentucky (10-16, 3-9 SEC) sits in the bottom three of the SEC standings less than three years removed from a conference tournament title. The Wildcats are coming off a victory against Florida on Sunday — a win that snapped a six-game losing streak.

Mississippi State (20-7, 7-5) lost to Florida last week before losing at Ole Miss on Sunday. Before that, the Bulldogs had won five straight in conference play to elevate themselves as high as No. 2 in the SEC standings. However, they now are just outside the top four — noteworthy considering the best four teams get a double-bye in the SEC tournament.
MSU won at Kentucky on Feb. 1, though it was a tighter game than expected. Mississippi State trailed by six in the final minute of regulation before winning in overtime.
