One game down and two more to go in the non-conference portion of the MSU football schedule. With Tulsa out of the way the Spartans take on a much more familiar opponent this week. While they no longer row the boat, Western is no stranger to playing against the Spartans.
School: Western Michigan University
Nickname: Broncos
Conference: Mid-American Conference (MAC)
Location: Kalamazoo, Michigan
Head Coach: Tim Lester (3rd season, 14-12)
Mascot: Buster Bronco

Since the departure of PJ Fleck to Minnesota, the Broncos have slumped back into mediocrity in the MAC.
