Rivalry week: CMU plays at WMU

Western Week.

That’s about all that needs to be said.

The Central Michigan football team will travel to Kalamazoo on Wednesday night (ESPN2, CBS Sports Network, 98.5 WUPS-FM) for its annual showdown with its most bitter rival. Kick off is slated for 8 p.m.

Western is never far from the mind of third-year CMU coach John Bonamego, who played at CMU in the mid-1980s. But for 51 weeks out of the year, it’s a simmer with regard to Western for Bonamego.

Come Wednesday, it’s full boil.

“It’s not something we talk about just this week,” Bonamego said.
