EMU knocks Western down, takes their lunch money

The EMU defense was utterly superb in forcing SIX Bronco turnovers. Real smashmouth effort. The offense simply decided to show up and run the ball down Western's throat, and as the game wore on, succeeded. 255 yards on the ground, 151 on 33 carries for Pierre Walker. Pierre Walker ran tough all day, he packed and lunch and brought a flashlight and did it the old fashioned way. Credit the offensive line for helping, alongside the turnovers, for holding the ball over 40 minutes. On a wet, nasty, and cold late October afternoon that offensive line never let up.

Speaking of the weather, uh, EMU fans was there a REASON you all started leaving at halftime? At least 50% of you left at halftime. C'mon Ypsi, we've gotta be tougher than that. Shame on anyone who left at halftime because of weather. Yeah it was only 3-2 EMU and chilly and wet but geez, a little tough love here. Like Stacey Keach used to advise Christopher Titus on his TV show:

Don't be a wussy

Well played EMU, good hard work results in a Homecoming win. For one day anyway, all is well in Ypsilanti

EMU 19
WMU 2

2 points, how lame. When you think of it that's only 2 points more than Johnny had.
