SALT LAKE CITY — There's nothing a defender loves more than the intimidation factor on the field.
Get a defender one-on-one against an offensive skills player and that defender will always believe he has the upper hand. It's no different for senior Tevin Carter, who's loving his role as strong safety behind an already "nasty" front seven.
It's that moment where the offensive player breaks through the linebackers and it's just him one-on-one. But at 6-foot-1 and 220 pounds, Carter looks more like an NFL safety than his counterparts. It's intimidation.
"I love that, to be honest with you," Carter says as a giant smile encompasses his face, as if he's already picked out his prey and is letting him pretend he has a chance.
