Five Things Learned: Central Michigan at Northern Illinois

The Northern Illinois Huskies notched their first win of 2018 yesterday when they edged out the Central Michigan Chippewas 24-16. But what did we learn from the game?

1. CMU might have found their new quarterback

After struggling on offense for the first ten quarters of the year, Head Coach John Bonamego made a switch, pulling Tony Poljan and replacing him with Tommy Lazzaro.

The move sparked the Chips offense and led to 13 second half points and had CMU within 15 yards of tying the game before a late interception sealed it for the Huskies.
