Richie Brown is a different kind of senior at Mississippi State

STARKVILLE, Miss. -- Erin Brown couldn't believe what she was seeing.

Sitting with her parents and four sisters three rows up on the 20-yard line inside Mississippi State's Davis Wade Stadium, a maroon-and-white blur caught her eye. It was the second quarter of No. 12 Mississippi State's highly anticipated 2014 game against No. 6 Texas A&M when she realized her then-boyfriend and future husband Richie Brown had done something. The crowd boomed with excitement around her and, sure enough, Richie Brown filled Mississippi State's monstrous video board, taking a Kenny Hill interception 30 yards downfield.
