Lowry throws for 3 TDs, Buckley runs for 3, and Western Michigan rebounds with win over Monmouth
On Saturday, Sept. 12, Western Michigan defeated FCS-opponent Monmouth 49-14 at Waldo Stadium in Kalamazoo, moving the Broncos to a 1-1 record.
This blowout win follows Western's controversial 13-12 loss to Michigan last week, an outcome the Mid-American Conference unsuccessfully appealed to the NCAA.
Redshirt junior quarterback Broc Lowry threw three touchdown passes, while running back Jalen Buckley rushed for three scores before a crowd of 24,605.
Head coach Lance Taylor praised the team's leadership on the ESPN+ broadcast, saying "It feels really good right now," as the Broncos pursue a College Football Playoff berth.
The Broncos travel to Rice on Saturday, Sept. 19, before returning home to face Boise State on Sept. 26 in a matchup between two Group of Six contenders.
