KALAMAZOO, Mich. (AP) — Broc Lowry threw three touchdown passes, Jaylen Buckley ran for three scores, and Western Michigan defeated FCS-opponent Monmouth 49-14 on Saturday night.
The blowout win comes on the heels of Western Michigan’s controversial 13-12 loss to Michigan last week.
Western Michigan led 21-0 at halftime despite being outgained 176-119 in total yards. Lowry had touchdown passes of 13 yards to Baylin Brooks and 23 yards to Egypt Nelson, and Buckley had a 1-yard run for the third score.
Western Michigan added touchdowns on three consecutive drives in the third quarter, with Buckley scoring twice, and the Broncos led 42-7 heading to the fourth quarter. Backup quarterback Trey Petty’s 21-yard scoring pass to Ryan Brotherton made it 49-7 before Monmouth scored on a short run in the final minute.
Lowry completed 14 of 20 passes for 212 yards. Aveion Chenault caught four passes for 101 yards for the Broncos (1-1). The Broncos finished with 414 yards but allowed 431.
Frankie Weaver was 28-of-46 passing for 273 yards with a short TD pass to Tra Neal, who had 106 yards on seven receptions for the Hawks (1-2).
