YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – With not a cloud in the sky and the sun shining brightly, the Eastern Michigan University football team was back inside Rynearson Stadium today, Aug. 14, for its first team scrimmage of the fall 2021 campaign.

Broken into offensive and defensive sidelines, the units clashed in a full-pad affair that included certified NCAA officials and multiple sets of live, game-style football. With modifications in place, such as making all quarterback contact illegal and eliminating the use of certain types of blocks, the squads competed for the majority of the allotted practice time.
