Mississippi State football: Nick Fitzgerald overcomes struggles to destroy Aggies

The Mississippi State football team defeated the Texas A&M Aggies tonight and it was largely due to the incredible performance that Nick Fitzgerald had tonight. Multiple times throughout the evening, Fitzgerald made several big plays and carried MSU past the No. 16 team in the country tonight.

Against one of the best defenses in the country, Fitzgerald completed 14 of his 22 passes for 241 yards and 2 touchdowns. Fitz also ran the ball 16 times for 88 yards and a touchdown, including the dagger to put A&M away.

This was arguably the best performance that Nick Fitzgerald has had this year and it couldn’t have come at a better time.
