Just minutes after Derrick Nix crumbled to the floor after taking a groin shot from Zeller (Nix could hardly walk), Nix took over the game. He completely turned the momentum in the Spartans favor, taking the lead on 4 consecutive points and The Brez was at a fever pitch with the floor slapping defense. Referee Ted Valentine, halted play due to what appeared to be a retaliation fist to the balls by Nix on Zeller. The accusations flew on ESPN about the NIX cheap shot and lack of sportsmanship. The incident stopped play for 5-minutes and more importantly for Indiana, stopped the Spartans charge and caused MSU to take it's foot off their throat. It was a game changer. Izzo held Nix out of the game after the stoppage in play.

Zeller has got to be the craftiest player I've ever seen. I'm sure you can come up with other adjectives and colorful phrases. I am now so looking forward to meeting them in the B1G Championship game - gotta get there. Let's BEAT chUMps on the way there, then beat Indiana's chump in the last game before the big dance.
Bring it.
