In 2016, the Bulldogs won the SEC Regular Season Championship for the first time since 1989, were a national seed for the first time ever, and hosted a super regional for the second time ever.  After winning their home regional, however, the Bulldogs were swept by a red-hot Arizona team in the super regional. 

They wore 3 different uniform combinations in the postseason: Maroon MS jersey with white pants, Gray Pinstripes, and the White 85 jersey.  Uniform Stats for the 2016 postseason are as follows:

White 85: 1-0 Record, Regional Championship
Maroon MS: 1-1 Record
Gray Pinstripes: 1-1 Record

2016 was a much more constrained year for Mississippi State Baseball uniforms.  The Bulldogs wore 9 combos in 2016, down from 16 in 2015 and 20 in 2014.

The Bulldogs' season came to a sudden and disappointing end this weekend as they were swept in their home super regional by Arizona.  The losses ended what was a great season for the 2016 SEC Champions.  In game 1, the Bulldogs wore the Maroon MS jersey with white pants, as they have all year on Fridays.  In game 2, they wore the Gray Pinstripes, and it looked like the pinstripe magic would work again, until a late game breakdown ended the season for the Bulldogs.

Final Uniforms Stats for the 2016 Season:

The Bulldogs are hosting a regional for the first time since 2013.  In the game 1 win over SEMO on Friday, they wore the Maroon MS jersey with white pants, just as they have on every single Friday for the entire season.  In the winner's bracket game win over Cal State Fullerton, the Bulldogs were technically the away team, so for the first time this season they wore the gray pinstripes at home.  In the regional championship win over Louisiana Tech, they wore the inverted White 85 jerseys, the same jerseys in which they won the SEC regular season championship two weeks prior.

Also, you may notice that starting in the playoffs, the presentation will feature various uniform models.  The uniform for each game will feature the number of a top-preforming player from that particular game.

Unlike the last time the Bulldogs played in the SEC Tournament in 2014, the #1 seeded Bulldogs stuck to the classic uniforms in their three SEC Tournament games in 2016.  They wore the White MS jerseys in their lone win of the tournament.  They wore the Maroon MS jerseys in their losses to LSU and Florida.

Despite their lack of success in the tournament, the regular season SEC champs are still locked as a national seed, and even picked up a potential regional game 1 starter in Zac Houston after his dominating outing vs Alabama.  The Bulldogs were also reminded what it was like to lose after winning 12 straight, hopefully giving them a renewed sense of vigor in regionals and super regionals.

Here's a look at the Bulldogs' 2016 Uniform Stats after the SEC Tournament:

The 2016 Mississippi State baseball season was an improvement over 2015, to say the least.  The Bulldogs went from last place in the SEC in 2015 to being the outright SEC Champions in 2016.  Numerous changes were made in order to achieve this improvement; probably the least important of these changes were the uniforms.

In 2015, the Bulldogs wore 10 different jerseys, 5 different hats (only the maroon hat spanned multiple jerseys), and 6 different pairs of pants (3 of which were worn with multiple jerseys), totaling 16 different combinations (17 combinations were advertised before the season- that number never actually came to fruition.)

In 2016, 3 new jerseys were introduced, but 6 jerseys from 2015 were retired.  In total, 7 different jerseys, 4 different hats (3 of which were not worn in 2015), and 2 pair of pants (three if you consider that there were two versions of the white pants- one with a maroon stripe and one without- that were worn interchangeably.)  In total, 9 different combinations were worn in the 2016 regular season.

Wearing the same three uniform combinations they did two weeks previous vs Missouri, the Bulldogs swept Arkansas and claimed outright the 2016 SEC Baseball Regular Season Championship, their first since 1989, after finishing in last place a year ago.

The Bulldogs stayed consistent in their road series at Auburn, picking up their second sweep in a row and first sweep on the road utilizing the same uniform rotation as at Florida, LSU, and Alabama.

The Bulldogs won their final mid-week game of the year wearing the gray pinstripe uniforms at Troy.

In their 7th SEC Series win of the year, the Bulldogs finally earned a sweep over Missouri.  They accomplished the feat wearing the maroon hat and white pants all weekend, wearing the White MS jersey in game 1, the Maroon MS jersey in game 2, and the inverted White 85 pullover (which had previously been worn in the Governor's Cup) in game 3.

The Bulldogs stuck with what works in their road series at Alabama, wearing the same uniform sequence as they did at Florida and LSU, again taking 2 out of 3 in an SEC road series.  The Bulldogs wore the Maroon MS jersey with white pants on Thursday, and the Gray Pinstripes in both games of the Saturday doubleheader.
