It only took one play for the Spartans to find the scoreboard on Friday night.

Michigan State started off their season-opening match-up against Northwestern with a 75-yard touchdown run from new running back Kenneth Walker. It was Walker’s first carry as a Spartan after transferring to Michigan State from Wake Forest in the offseason.

The touchdown run gave the Spartans an early 7-0 lead over the Wildcats.

We now know who will be starting for the Wildcats in Friday night’s season-opener in Evanston, Ill.

On Monday, Northwestern revealed their official depth chart for Friday’s match-up against the Spartans to kick off the 2021 season. The Wildcats will be led offensively by senior quarterback Hunter Johnson and sophomore running back Evan Hull.

Below is the complete depth chart from Northwestern:

Michigan State has yet to release their complete depth chart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they don’t prior to kickoff on Friday. The Spartans have yet to reveal who will be starting at quarterback, and I wouldn’t hold your breath on finding that out until kickoff.
