Top 10 Mississippi State Football Players: #9 Wayne Madkin (1998-2001)

Madkin was the greatest quarterback the school had ever seen.

That is until a certain kid from Sulphur, Louisiana named Dakota Rayne Prescott came along.

He is one of the most seasoned QBs in school history, winning 25 games across his 4 years as the starter. Madkin was the starter that led the Bulldogs to the 1998 SEC Championship. In addition to that, Wayne led the Bulldogs to the 1998 Cotton Bowl, 1999 Peach Bowl and the 2000 Independence Bowl. Madkin graduated as Mississippi State’s all-time leading passer with 6,336 yards and held the record until it was broken by Dak Prescott in 2015.
