Richie Brown

Richie Brown missed a lot of tackles in the win over Northwestern State. He made up for it against Auburn.

Brown had 13 tackles on the night and 2 sacks on the night. Brown was all over the field making plays for the Mississippi State defense when they needed them the most.

Brown continues to lead the team in tackles. His 13 brings his total to 39 for the year. For a team that needed to replace McKinney, Brown has stepped up to show he is willing to take on the responsibility.
