Football enters rematch with No. 22 OK State as 20-point underdog

Greg Cornwell | Staff Photographer Junior running back Martez Walker rushes the ball against Oklahoma State University Sept. 3 at Kelly/Shorts Stadium. The Chippewas fell to the Cowboys, 24-13.

John Bonamego doesn’t believe Saturday’s showdown with Oklahoma State is a statement game — at least not yet.

“It’s only a statement game if you win,” said Central Michigan's second-year coach. “There’s no such thing as moral victories.”

The Chippewas travel to Stillwater to take on the No. 22 Cowboys, who dismantled Southeastern Louisiana 61-7 in their season opener. Kickoff is scheduled for noon Saturday.

CMU fell to Oklahoma State 24-13 in the 2015 season opener at Kelly/Shorts Stadium.
