The first 7 weeks of the 2018 Mississippi State football season were a roller coaster of emotions that left many fans extremely dissatisfied when the ride came to an end. The Bulldogs were 4-3 overall and just 1-3 in SEC play. All three losses were the result of some of the worst offensive play Bulldog fans had seen since the Sylvester Croom days.
But when Texas A&M came to Starkville on the last Saturday in October, the Mississippi State football offense seemed to find its way. And the biggest change in the offense’s performance was in the play of Quarterback Nick Fitzgerald.
