The redshirt freshman had a hand in all three of Michigan State’s touchdowns, throwing for two while running for another. Houser led the team to its first opening-drive TD of the season in the setback as he connected with senior wide receiver Montorie Foster Jr. for a 13-yard touchdown midway through the first quarter.

Carter became the first Spartan to score three touchdowns in a quarter since Jehuu Caulcrick in 2007 when he accomplished the feat in the third quarter of the team’s 45-14 victory once morest Richmond on Sept. 9.
