Mississippi State picked to win SEC women's basketball title

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) Mississippi State is the favorite to repeat as Southeastern Conference women's basketball champions this season.

The Bulldogs made it to the national championship game last season. Mississippi State 6-foot-7 center Teaira McCowan is the lopsided favorite to win SEC player of the year honors.

A panel of SEC and national media members voted on the predictions, released on Tuesday.

Mississippi State is followed by South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Missouri, Texas A&M and Kentucky. Auburn, LSU, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Vanderbilt and Mississippi round out the bottom half.

McCowan is joined on the All-SEC team by Missouri's Sophie Cunningham, Texas A&M's Chennedy Carter, Georgia's Caliya Robinson, Mississippi State's Anriel Howard, South Carolina's Alexis Jennings and Tennessee's Rennia Davis.
