Michigan State football copes with ‘thin’ backfield
LJ Scott isn’t quite being treated like an NFL veteran, but the Michigan State running back is hardly going to be pushed to the limit this spring. That’s because, as the Spartans continue spring practice this week, Scott is the only running back on the roster with any significant experience. Connor Heyward, who had three carries last season in limited action as a true freshman, is the only returning back that has touched the ball in a game.
