Like at running back on offense, linebacker is one of a few positions at which the Spartans can be at ease. The question is whether their linebackers will be just solid or game-changers. Senior captain Chris Frey returns on the strong side. He led the Spartans in tackles last season with 96. MSU could use him to become more adept as a pass rusher, which Denicos Allen once did so well from Frey’s position.
