The entire defense of the Texas A&M Aggies is driven by what Bobby Brown III does in the middle. Brown lines right up at defensive tackle and gets the necessary push to allow for everything else to occur, and part of that is an elite pass rush.

Meanwhile, Brown himself is able to get in on the action. While linebacker Aaron Hansford leads the team in tackles for a loss with seven, Brown is second on the team with six and a half. Meanwhile, he leads the team in sacks with four and a half. Add in his 19 tackles, seven of which were solo, and he knows how to be effective.

On the other side, Tennessee football has solid interior blocking, which means Brown is similar to Isaiah Spiller in that he shouldn’t be the biggest issue for the Vols. However, UT’s pass blocking has numerous issues, so if Brown requires extra attention, whomever is at quarterback could be under a ton of pressure throughout the day.

In each of his past two games, against the Auburn Tigers and LSU Tigers, Brown has come away with a sack. He had half a sack before that and two tackles for a loss against the South Carolina Gamecocks, meaning a majority of his production has occurred down the stretch.
