Last season, Central Michigan football players didn't have to worry about quarterback Jon Wassink in the Western Michigan rivalry game.
Now, they do.
Back in 2017, Wassink suffered a broken collarbone one game prior to the showdown against CMU, which ended in a 35-28 victory for the Chippewas. He's back and better than ever. with 143-of-231 passing for 1,924 yards, 19 touchdowns and six interceptions on the 2018 season.
Central Michigan takes on Western Michigan in hopes of snapping an FBS losing streak dating back to the 2017 season and an 0-3 start to Mid-American Conference play.
