Southeast Missouri State

STARKVILLE, Miss. -- Teaira McCowan's first game of her senior season was one that filled the box score, including 24 points, 17 rebounds and a career-high seven blocked shots.

But there was also that air ball and a couple ugly line drives at the free throw line. The shots were still sticking in her head even after No. 6 Mississippi State easily beat Southeast Missouri 88-53 in Tuesday night's season opener.

"I'm going to work on those," McCowan said. "Tonight."

It was one of the few things the Bulldogs could complain about after a solid debut.
