Western Michigan football closes the season on the road at Northern Illinois Tuesday. Needing a win to solidify a bowl appearance, the game will be a tough one as the Huskies already clinched the MAC West a week ago. Here are three keys to how the Broncos can pull out a win.
Score early and often
A week ago against Eastern Michigan the Broncos had all of its scoring come in the 2nd and 3rd quarter. With the way the Northern Illinois defense gives up big plays through the air, the Broncos have to take advantage of this and air the ball out.
