Mississippi State’s 6-4, 310-pound interior disruptor arrives with power and pedigree
Tico Crittendon is a 2026 Mississippi State defensive lineman from Lithonia, Ga., and the profile that jumps off the page is size-plus-strength: he’s listed at 6-4, 310 with reported high-school lifts of 330 bench, 475 squat and 385 deadlift, and he played both defensive tackle and nose guard. In his high-school career, he logged 91 tackles, 34 tackles for loss, 4.0 sacks and three forced fumbles, which hints at real backfield-melting ability, not just space-eating bulk. The fit is obvious: a nasty interior body for a Bulldogs front that wants leverage, toughness and some old-school SEC thunder.
