The Western Michigan Broncos (1-2, 1-0 Mid-American Confernce) played host to a hobbled and conservative Pittsburgh Panthers (2-1) crew who was missing several key contributors ( including their first two quarterbacks) on Saturday, but were ultimately unable to pull off the upset, losing by a final of 34-13 on Saturday night.
The Broncos were within a score for most of the game, but struggled to move the ball at every point.
The big question coming into the game surrounded the Pitt quarterback situation. Before the game, it was revealed that regular backup, Nick Patti, didn’t travel with the team to Kalamazoo.
