No. 9 Missouri out to showcase its refreshed run game with Buffalo on deck

Missouri showed off a refreshed running game last week against Murray State, when transfers Nate Noel and Marcus Carroll each reached the end zone in the ninth-ranked Tigers' 51-0...

SEPTEMBER 5, 2024 • Associated Press

Leading rusher in romp Noel rushed 11 times for 48 yards and a touchdown Thursday against Murray State, while also catching four passes for 20 yards out of the backfield.

Impact Noel and fellow transfer Marcus Carroll were listed as co-starters, and while both rushers found the end zone in the 51-0 laugher over the Racers, it was Noel who nearly doubled the touches of Carroll. A true split is unlikely to come to the forefront until the schedule gets tougher, something that does not happen next weekend against Buffalo.

Co-starter on depth chart Noel is listed as a co-starter for Missouri at running back along with Marcus Carroll on the team's 2024 team depth chart, per Calum McAndrew of the Columbia Tribune.

Impact Noel and Carroll were previously seen splitting starter reps in practice during the past week, but it appears the Mizzou coaching staff feels comfortable heading into 2024 with a committee approach. The senior Appalachian State transfer came to the Tigers in the offseason following a very productive four seasons with the Mountaineers, rushing for over 3,000 yards and 18 touchdowns on the ground. The workload split between Noel and Carroll will be worth monitoring throughout the season, but a committee approach seems to be imminent at least to start the 2024 campaign.

Took first-team reps Friday Noel was observed taking first-team reps during Friday's practice, Calum McAndrew of Columbia Daily Tribune reports.

Impact Although reports indicate this could be situational, it is worth noting that Noel was taking first-team reps ahead of fellow running back Marcus Carroll. The coaching staff has expressed comfort in deploying a committee between the two backs, which would fall in line with the starter reps for the senior ball-carrier. The 5-foot-10 running back carried the ball 173 times for 834 yards and five touchdowns while reeling in 16 receptions for 86 yards across 11 games during the 2023 season.

AUGUST 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Did not play Saturday Noel (undisclosed) did not play in Saturday's 55-27 loss to Georgia Southern.

Impact For undisclosed reasons, Noel did not suit up in Saturday's win. In 10 games this season he has rushed 160 times for 774 yards and five touchdowns, the vast majority of which came in the first five games of the season. Given the unknown reasons for his absence, he should be considered questionable for Saturday's Sun Belt Championship Game at Troy.

Quiet in timeshare Noel notched 10 carries for 21 yards and caught 1 of 2 targets for four yards during Saturday's 26-23 overtime victory over James Madison.

Impact Noel operated in a 50/50 split with Anderson Castle, as each back handled 10 carries and notched 21 yards. Since posting at least 100 rushing yards in his first five games while averaging 24.8 carries per contest, Noel hasn't topped 12 carries or 90 rushing yards.

NOVEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Breaks out for long run Noel accrued 10 rushes for 86 yards and one touchdown and gathered in their only target for two yards during Saturday's 42-14 victory over Georgia State.

Impact While Noel finished with a stellar 8.6 yards per carry, he averaged just 2.8 yards per carry outside of his 61-yard touchdown scamper in the first period. Since returning from injury, Noel has seen three, 12 and now 10 carries, while backup Kanye Roberts has also commanded a significant role. With just two weeks left in the regular season, it's possible Noel won't return to his pre-injury workload in 2023.

NOVEMBER 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Regains featured role Noel accrued 11 rushes for 51 yards during Saturday's 31-9 win against Marshall. He also caught two passes for 18 yards.

Impact While Noel only received 11 carries Saturday, he led Appalachian State in carries by five. Though it's not quite the workload he received prior to his ankle injury, Noel has seen his carries increase in three straight games, a trend that should continue next against Georgia State on Nov. 11.

NOVEMBER 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Plays, limited to three carries Noel (ankle) notched three carries for eight yards during Saturday's 48-38 win versus Southern Miss.

Impact Noel was tabbed probable for Saturday's game after participating in practice throughout the week. However, he was limited to just three touches on the day -- tied for the third most among Appalachian State tailbacks. Though it's unclear if Noel will be able to handle a full workload next week against Marshall, he should be expected to see more touches than he did Saturday.

OCTOBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Probable Saturday Noel (ankle) has been practicing this week and is expected to make his return Saturday against Southern Miss.

Impact Noel, who did not appear against Old Dominion last week, is gearing up for a return against the Golden Eagles. The 5-foot-10 senior has carried the ball 125 times across six games, totaling 639 yards and four touchdowns. If Noel is ultimately unable to suit up against Southern Miss, Kanye Roberts, who was effective against the Monarchs, will likely have a large role again.

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Absent Saturday Noel (ankle) did not play during Saturday's 28-21 defeat versus Old Dominion.

Impact Despite participating in practice leading up to Saturday's tilt, Noel ended up on the sidelines due to a right ankle injury he sustained in Week 7. With Noel out, Kanye Roberts saw 29 touches for over 120 yards from scrimmage. Noel's next chance to play will come Oct. 28 against Southern Miss.

OCTOBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Status for Saturday remains murky Head coach Shawn Clark mentioned in his press conference Monday that Noel's (ankle) status likely won't be more concrete until Wednesday, App State reporter Thomas Sherrill reports...

Impact Unfortunately, Sherrill also indicated that, due to a lack of media availability, public knowledge of Noel's status for Saturday may not be known until the Mountaineers take the field for pregame warmups. If Noel remains out of commission, Kanye Roberts, Maquel Haywood and Ahmani Marshall would all be candidates to see increased reps out of the backfield.

OCTOBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in return Noel (ankle) had 13 rushing yards and a touchdown against James Madison.

Impact Noel wasn't overly effective in his return but he was active and found the end zone. Appalachian State hosts the Citadel on Saturday.

OCTOBER 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Warming up Saturday Noel (ankle) is dressed in uniform and warming up ahead of Saturday's game versus James Madison, Cameron Burnett of The Appalachian reports.

Impact Noel has missed Appalachian State's last two games with an ankle injury. In his sole start he tallied 14 carries for 116 yards and two touchdowns while adding 2 receptions for 17 yards. Noel is clearly the team's top back when healthy, but his role this week is uncertain coming off an injury.

SEPTEMBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable with ankle injury Noel missed last week's win over Texas A&M due to a right ankle injury, Cameron Burnett of The Appalachian reports.

Impact His status for this week's game against Troy is uncertain. Ahmani Marshall got more carries behind Camerun Peoples with Noel out.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sees 16 carries against 'Canes Noel had 16 carries for 51 yards and two catches for 11 yards in Saturday's 25-23 loss to Miami.

Impact Noel and Camerun Peoples essentially split carries in Miami on Saturday, with the latter receiving just one more touch. Peoples was able to do more with his opportunities, averaging 5.6 yards per attempt, while Noel averaged just 3.2. Still, putting up 51 yards on a talented Hurricanes front is nothing to sneeze at. There should be more room to work for Noel against Elon next week.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Big night in opener Noel had 15 carries for 126 yards against East Carolina.

Impact Noel was the surprise performer of the night for Appalachian State as he led the team in rushing yards, besting Camerun Peoples. A performance like that should afford Noel a steady role in the Appalachian State backfield moving forward.
