PHOTO: Mississippi State freshman will honor Keith Joseph by wearing his jersey

Keith Joseph will finally see the field for Mississippi State after all.

When Mississippi State redshirt freshman defensive lineman Keith Joseph tragically passed away in a car accident Nov. 6, his fellow freshman safety Jamal Peters lost more than just a teammate, he lost his closet friend on the team.

Peters was the last member of the Bulldog team to spend time with Joseph, as he dropped him off with his father just before the car accident that took both their lives. As Mississippi State prepares for the biggest game of its season, Peters has chosen a special way to pay tribute to his friend's memory.
