The University of Akron football team will get its No. 1 quarterback this week as they prepare for their most significant game of the season thus far, according to a source with knowledge of the situation.
The undefeated Western Michigan Broncos (6-0, 2-0 in Mid-American Conference) will invade InfoCision Stadium for a 3:30 kick-off Saturday.
Thomas Woodson has been sidelined for the past two games after being injured in the Appalachian State game, one that he finished. He was a surprise scratch for the team’s rivalry game against the Kent State Golden Flashes.
But the Zips (4-2, 2-0) have been able to press on without Woodson as his backup, Kent native Tra’Von Chapman, led the team to two consecutive wins, allowing them to record a team record sixth consecutive MAC game.
