Video: MSU QB Nick Fitzgerald throws perfect strike to Donald Gray for long touchdown
Published:
Nick Fitzgerald and Donald Gray have quite the connection going against FCS Samford.
The duo has hooked up for a pair of long passing touchdowns, the most recent one a 74-yard bomb to extend the Bulldogs’ lead to 28-20 late in the second quarter. The first one was a 71-yard strike about six minutes into the game.
Gray, a junior, has already set his career-high for receiving yards on just two receptions.
The 145 yards receiving by Donald Gray are a career high.

The two big plays have helped Mississippi State hold off a pesky Samford squad that trails by just eight points heading into halftime. Fitzgerald’s longest pass of the season before today was just 46 yards, and he has already set a new high mark in just one half of football.
