Western Michigan Broncos play Bowling Green Falcons in the MAC Football Week 9. Tre Bourguet will start at quarterback for the Broncos. Tim Lester took over the offensive game planning and Eric Evans called the plays from the booth. La’Darius Jefferson is suspended indefinitely. The Broncos defense had their best game of the season against Miami RedHawks. The Falcons excel in passing situations. They can be pushed around at the point of attack a little bit. It will be critical for Tyler and the other backs to be tough runners and take five yards when three are easy. To score points and keep the running game viable, they need to neutralize the Falcon's best defensive asset.

The Bowling Green Falcons have a very balanced offense. Matt McDonald is spreading the ball around to his wide receivers. Odieu Hiliare leads the team with 25 catches and 374 yards with four touchdowns. Ta’Ron Keith is sixth in the MAC for running backs in yards per touch. The Falcons defense has 32 sacks in their eight games. They get the same effect out of building a lead as the offense, but the defense can't directly control that. They have 15 players with at least one sack. Central Michigan has a good defense. It has 16-3 TD to INT ratio. Their quarterback is a high completion percentage passer.

Western Michigan Broncos are playing in the MAC Football Week 9 game against Bowling Green Falcons. The Broncos offense is inconsistent and third down is a struggle for them. Bowling green's offense has more consistency and is able to get to the passer without selling out on the blitz.
