Mississippi State QB Nick Fitzgerald Suffered a Bad Broken Leg in Egg Bowl
By Jason Lisk
Nick Fitzgerald of Mississippi State kept the ball on a run, and the aftermath was awful. His foot got rolled over by a defender, and was pointing in the wrong direction. (Video below, but do not watch if you do not want to see the injury after the play).
