Mississippi State beat Vanderbilt 3-0 in the SEC Championship game to complete its rampage through the conference tournament.

It was another dominant performance by the Bulldogs, who couldn't have picked a better time to play their best ball of the season.

Although their conference record (17-14) isn't overly impressive, Mississippi State flipped the switch at the perfect time. They've won nine of their last 10 games, and they avenged their only loss during that span by eliminating Kentucky, 2-1, in the semifinals.

The deep Bulldogs pitching staff was excellent throughout the tournament, surrendering just 12 runs in six games. Their crown jewel was the championship game, when four pitchers combined for the shutout.
