The Central Michigan Chippewas (1-2) desperately needed a result to go their way after an unexpected loss in their home opener last weekend, and thankfully for them, help came in the way of a 41-0 win over the Bucknell Bison (0-3), though it wasn’t exactly an easy victory for the Maroon and Gold on a cloudy Saturday afternoon.
Both teams would exchange three-and-outs to start the game, with Bucknell converting the first first-down play for either side on the third overall possession of the game on a drive which itself would end in a punt after a drive lasting 3:47 went nowhere.
