Noah Wezensky to start for Miami at Akron

A tough game for the Miami RedHawks just got a lot tougher as Billy Bahl has been ruled out of Saturday’s game at the Akron Zips and Noah Wezensky has been named the starter at quarterback. The injury to Bahl puts Chuck Martin’s offense in a bind as it takes on an Akron defense that is considered one of the best in the conference.

The true freshman played admirably against the Ohio Bobcats last weekend in relief of Bahl by going 14-of-25 for 154 yards and a touchdown, despite the 4.4 yards per attempt and the three sacks.
