Michigan State running back Nate Carter is expected to have a big second season with the Spartans.
One of Michigan State football's key assets who simply is not receiving the attention he deserves is Spartan running back Nate Carter.
Carter, who led the Spartans in rushing last season, will likely be the team's top running back this coming season. The returning Spartan showed fans what he is ready to bring to the table in Year 2 with a dominant display in Michigan State's spring game, the "Spring Showcase," back in April.Trent Knoop of Sports Illustrated's Wolverine Digest recently ranked the top 25 running backs in the Big Ten, placing Carter at No. 14.
Carter played in all 12 games for Michigan State last season, recording 798 rushing yards, four rushing touchdowns and 103 receiving yards."I just love how this offense allows me to explore more of my abilities," Carter said after the spring game. "I'm more versatile of not only running the ball, but being effective in the passing game.
