Get the inside scoop on Mississippi State here. The Beavers are adjusting to life without Tres Tinkle, but they could receive a boost in the form of Stephen Thompson Jr, who is expected to return in a limited capacity tonight.
The most surprising pre-game news come from Mississippi State star Quinndary Weatherspoon though. Weatherspoon was averaging 18.8 points and 5.0 rebounds per game before suffering a wrist injury that was supposed to be season-ending. Instead, in a miraculous turn of events (for Bulldog fans) Weatherspoon is expected to start against Oregon State tonight.

It’s unknown what caused this turn of events. Is he foregoing surgery and toughing it out? Is he super human and has wolverine-like healing abilities? No one can know for sure, but it’ll be interesting to see if his wrist bothers him tonight.
Come hang out and chat about the game as Oregon State tries and get their first road victory of the year. Go Beavers!
