MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. – Just over two weeks ago, the Central Michigan defense allowed Kent State to drive 86 yards for the game-winning field goal with under two minutes to play.
Faced with a similar scenario Tuesday night against Ohio, the Chippewas weren’t about to let history repeat itself.
Central Michigan’s defense stood tall in the final minute, turning away the Bobcats to preserve a 27-20 CMU victory on Senior Night at Kelly/Shorts Stadium.
The Bobcats had a first down at the CMU 12-yard line with about two minutes remaining.
