STARKVILLE – In a showdown of the state’s top two receivers, Starkville’s A.J. Brown came out on top Friday night.
The four-star Yellowjackets wide-out racked up a career-high 16 receptions for 176 yards to lead No. 6 Starkville to a 20-7 win over No. 3 Oxford in the third annual Little Egg Bowl.
Brown, a Dandy Dozen wide receiver, averaged close to a first down per catch. The Chargers threw their best at him, including matchups with fellow Dandy Dozen receiver and Ole Miss commit D.K. Metcalf, who converted to cornerback in an attempt to contain Brown.
“They played man-to-man. I don’t get that too often,” Brown said. “When they go man-to-man we just need to take advantage. Man-to-man, I think I can go against any corner in the nation.”

30 receptions in two games so far this year. Monster! TI still thinks we lead as of this morning. Says he still says he wants to get out of Starkville. We'll see.

According to DrewD, one name to keep an eye on is Blake Williams, TE from Oklahoma. He didn't play football the past couple seasons due to some kind of nerve disease. The condition has been treated, and he's back to playing football again. He showed out at our camp and a couple other camps, running sub 4.6 40's at each stop. We apparently love his athleticism and are going to be monitoring him. If the coaches like him enough, don't be surprised if another TE commit drops off the list and we add Williams. He's not even in the 247 database that I can find, but the feeling is that he has a very high upside. Very similar physically to the 5* TE, Nauta. About 6'4" 227 pounds.
