If I told you that a team forced a fumble in overtime and only needed a field goal from a kicker who was 5/5 going into the game, you would think that team would have won, right? Well, you would also be wrong. It almost seemed like neither team wanted to win.
Northern Illinois quarterback Marcus Childers threw for 121 yards but also threw two interceptions. Unfortunately for the Eagles’ offense, Eastern Michigan was only able to get a field goal out of those two interceptions. Eastern Michigan quarterback Tyler Wiegers threw 180 yards but didn’t throw any picks.
