MSU's Conklin dresses; Kieler to start

PISCATAWAY, N.J. -- Michigan State starting offensive tackles Jack Conklin and Kodi Kieler both are dressing for the No. 4 Spartans tonight at Rutgers, for the first time since their knee injuries, and Kieler is listed as MSU's starter at left tackle.

Kieler is normally MSU's starting right tackle. Conklin, the starting left tackle, is available for emergency duty. Kieler injured his right knee in a Sept. 12 win against Oregon and Conklin injured his left knee Sept. 26 against Central Michigan.

The Spartans also have traveled two freshman cornerbacks for the game, Josh Butler and Tyson Smith.
