OXFORD, Ohio – The Western Michigan defense picked up seven sacks and held Miami to a season-low 10 points to pick up a 16-10 road win over the RedHawks on Saturday.
The victory halted Miami's 16-game home winning streak at Yager Stadium. Prior to Saturday, MU's previous loss at Yager Stadium was a 40-39 defeat at the hands of the Broncos back in 2018.
The seven sacks tied a season-best for the Bronco defense, while the 305 yards of total offense allowed was the second-lowest total surrendered by WMU thus far in 2022. It marked the fewest offensive yards given up by Western Michigan in a conference game since the MAC opener at Buffalo last season.
