  WEEK 0/AUG 31 MAC FOOTBALL SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Nick Devereaux, Eastern Michigan, WR, 5th Year, Troy, Mich. (Brother Rice),...Nick Devereaux took care of kick return duties in the opener with Sacramento State and ran back three kicks for 81 yards, including a 40-yard scamper, in his first career returns. The fifth-year former walk-on ranks second nationally in combined kick return yards (81) and fourth in all-purpose yards as he finished with 154 total yards that included 73 yards receiving with one touchdown. His 154 all-purpose yards are the highest of his career, surpassing the 121 receiving yards he posted against Ohio last year (Oct. 25) and marked only the second time in his career he finished a game with 100+ all-purpose yards. - MAC Football

  WEEK 0/AUG 31 MAC FOOTBALL DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Zach Mowchan, Eastern Michigan, LB, 4th Year, Dillsburg, Pa. (Northern York),...Zach Mowchan led a revamped defensive unit as he posted a game-high 14 tackles, including seven solo stops, while posting 1.5 TFLs as well. His tackles were one shy of equaling his career best of 15 recorded at Jacksonville State (Sept. 14, 2024). Overall, the defense stood tall against the Hornets in the MAC opener as it allowed just 10 offensive points that included a 40-yard field goal and a touchdown that came after a 10-play, 75-yard drive that needed over five minutes to secure. All told, Mowchan guided a defense that allowed just 34 total yards of offense to Sacramento State in the first half of play, including -21 yards rushing, only 271 total yards after averaging 416.5 last year, and forced two takeaways. - MAC Football

(Westfield),...Noah Kim was 27-of-38 passing for 279 yards and two touchdowns and added one more score with his feet to help lead the Eagles to an opening-night victory in MAC play against visiting Sacramento State, 28-17.

Kim, who came to Eastern without having recorded a rushing touchdown, has now run in seven scores, including the first points of the 2026 season. Additionally, he has recorded at least one passing and one rushing touchdown in six career games at EMU, which ranks third in the program (since 1995).

  Noah Kim threw for two touchdowns and ran for another to lead Eastern Michigan past Sacramento State 28-17 in a season and Mid-American Conference opener on Saturday night. The win marked the Eagles' 500th victory as they opened their 135th season. The game was Sacramento State's debut in the Football Bowl Subdivision and the first for Alonzo Carter as their head coach. The Hornets are a MAC member in football and have joined the Big West Conference in all other sports. Kim completed 27 of 38 passes for 279 yards. Sacramento State's Carson Conklin went 25-for-46 for 221 yards and was intercepted once. Although the first quarter was scoreless, the Eagles had driven to the Sac State 6-yard line at the end of the period. At the other end of the field, they finished off their nine-play, 79-yard drive after Kim scored on a 5-yard run.

Kim's 40-yard scoring pass to Santonyo Isaac made it 14-3, and a 7-yard run by Braydon Bennett made it 21-3 with five minutes left in the first half. Kim fumbled while being sacked by Fata Puloka later in the quarter, though, and Xavier Williams returned it 29 yards for a Hornets touchdown. Eastern Michigan led 21-10 at halftime, and Kim's 31-yard strike to Nick Devereaux made it 28-10 early in the fourth quarter. Isaiah Ene's 37-yard run was the highlight of a 75-yard touchdown drive that got the Hornets within 28-17, but Conklin was intercepted by Jason Marshall deep in EMU territory on Sacramento State's only remaining possession. - AP College Football

  Noah Kim threw for one touchdown and ran for another and Eastern Michigan topped Ball State 24-9 on Saturday, making Eagles coach Chris Creighton the 38th FBS coach all-time with 200 career wins. Joshua Scott had an interception for the Eagles (4-7, 4-4 Mid-American Conference), who held the Cardinals (4-6, 3-3) to 225 total yards and three field goals. Kim scored on a 1-yard sneak to cap a 58-yard on the first Eastern Michigan possession.

Kim's 43-yard connection to Jamarien Wheeler made it 14-3 before a field goal made it 17-3. Tavierre Dunlap scored on a 36- yard run in between a pair of Ball State field goals. Cardinals kicker DC Pippin connected from 32, 35 and 38 yards. Kim was 18 of 29 for 229 yards. As the Eagles won for the 399th time in program history, Creighton became the fourth active coach with 200 wins. He is the fifth coach with 200 wins to coach in the MAC, joining Brian Kelly (Central Michigan, Nick Saban (Toledo), Woody Hayes (Miami) and Don Nehlen (Bowling Green) but he was the only one to get his 200th in the MAC. - Eastern Michigan/AP College Football

Telly Johnson Jr. broke free for an 80-yard touchdown run late in the third quarter to give the Huskies (1-5, 0-2 MAC) 10-6 lead.

NIU leads the series, 36-17-2 since the two teams first met in 1927. - Eastern Michigan/AP College Football

  WEEK 4 MAC FOOTBALL SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Rudy Kessinger, Eastern Michigan, PK, R-Freshman, Columbus, Ohio (Bishop Watterson),...The redshirt freshman played the role of hero for the Eagles as he knocked in a 42-yard field goal with three seconds to play, giving EMU a 34-31 win on Homecoming and its first of the season. Kessinger was 2-of-3 in field goal attempts and 4-for-4 in extra-point attempts for 10 points, marking the first time in his career he tallied double-digit points after scoring 11 at Kentucky. Kessinger also recorded his first career punt as he dropped 36-yard boot to the 1-yard line early in the fourth quarter to pin the Louisiana offense deep. Perfect on PATs (11-of-11) for the season and 8-of-11 in field goals, Kessinger's winning kick helped him to maintain his 2.0 field goals per game average, which ranks 10th in the FBS and 2nd in the MAC while his 8.8 points per game is third overall in scoring in the MAC and second among kickers. - MAC Football

  Rudy Kessinger drilled a 41-yard field goal with three seconds left and Eastern Michigan beat Louisiana-Lafayette 34-31 on Saturday for its first win of the season. The Eagles trailed 24-21 after Courtline Flowers jumped a route and returned an interception 35 yards for a third-quarter touchdown. Tavierre Dunlap answered, though, capping the next drive with a 6-yard score - his second of the day and the first multi-score game of his career. Kessinger then added a field goal to make it 31-24. Zylan Perry tied it for the Ragin' Cajuns with a 10-yard run with 47 seconds remaining, setting up Kessinger's walk-off winner.

Louisiana-Lafayette built an early 14-0 lead on Perry's 23-yard dash and a short plunge before the Eagles flipped the game to take a 21-17 halftime lead. Bill Davis ripped off a 45-yard touchdown run, and Noah Kim ran three yards for a score and found Joshua Long for a 15-yard strike. Kim went 21 of 31 for 226 yards passing with one touchdown and one interception. Dontae McMillan ran for 126 yards on 19 carries and eclipsed 2,000 career yards rushing in the first quarter.

  Cole Snyder threw for 241 yards and a touchdown and ran for another and Eastern Michigan beat UMass 28-14 in a season opener on Saturday. Eastern Michigan now has beaten the Minutemen for four straight seasons. UMass will join the Mid-American Conference next year. The Eagles scored first when on their second possession they put together a 10-play, 97-yard drive that ended when Snyder ran it in from the 1. Snyder threw a 32-yard completion to Terry Lockett Jr. for the longest play of the drive.

Just before the end of the first half, Snyder threw an 18-yard scoring pass to Oran Singleton who made an acrobatic over-the-shoulder grab in the left corner of the end zone for a 14-0 lead. Snyder connected with Lockett for 29 yards to mark the drive's longest play. UMass got back in it after forcing the Eagles to three-and-out to start the third. The Minutemen used a 10-play, 70-yard drive and ended when Jalen John ran it in from the 1. Eastern Michigan's Jesus Gomez kicked a 20-yard field goal with 4:49 left in the third, a 31-yarder with 7:49 remaining, and Delbert Mimms III ran it in from the 6 with 5:43 to go, and the two-point conversion made it 28-7.

  Cole Snyder passed for 265 yards and Tajay Ahmed took over the fourth quarter with 14 carries to lead Buffalo to a 23-21 victory over Georgia Southern in the Camellia Bowl on Tuesday. The Bulls (7-6) chewed up the clock with runs from Ahmed on 11 consecutive plays and one pile-pushing final first down. He finished with 27 carries for 98 yards and a touchdown. That last first down meant quarterback Kyle Vantrease and Georgia Southern (6-7) couldn't get the ball back for a final chance against Vantrease's former team, with whom he spent five years and started 26 games before transferring. Snyder, a Rutgers transfer, completed 21 of 38 passes, including a 32-yard touchdown to game MVP Justin Marshall to outduel his predecessor.

Marshall caught 11 passes for 127 yards, and Quian Williams gained 100 yards on five catches. Vantrease completed 28 of 45 passes for 352 yards and two touchdowns with an interception. Beau Johnson had five catches for 118 yards. It was Buffalo's third straight bowl win after going 0-3 in bowls. Buffalo got a cushion thanks to Dylan Powell's interception and return across midfield in the fourth quarter. Ahmed then carried nine straight times but was stopped on three runs starting from the 2. The Bulls had to settle for a 23-14 lead with Alex McNulty's third field goal of the second half with 8:38 left. That FG was a school record, No. 49 of his career. Vantrease and Georgia Southern stayed alive with a 13-play, 90-yard drive. On fourth-and-7 from his own territory, Vantrease hit Johnson for a 42-yard gain. Then Jjay McAfee made a grab in the end zone for a 13-yard touchdown with 3:38 left. Georgia Southern needed only 26 seconds in the second half to wipe out a 14-6 deficit, thanks to a fumble, Vantrease's 79-yard touchdown pass to Joshua Thompson and a two-point conversion. - Buffalo/AP College Football

  Taylor Powell threw for 298 yards and two touchdowns, Samson Evans rushed for a pair of scores and Eastern Michigan defeated San Jose State 41-27 in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl on Tuesday. Eastern Michigan (9-4) won a bowl game for the second time in program history. The team last won a bowl game in 1987, beating San Jose State in the California Bowl. San Jose State (7-5) turned the ball over three times. It was first time this season that the Spartans had multiple turnovers in a game. The Spartans built a 13-0 lead in the first quarter when Chevan Cordeiro rushed 27 yards for a TD and then found Justin Lockhart with an 8-yard scoring pass. Then, Eastern Michigan stormed back, taking control of the game by scoring 30 straight points.

After San Jose State's second touchdown, Sterling Miles blocked the extra point attempt and Tristen Hines scooped up the ball and raced 87 yards for a 2-point defensive PAT. That was the spark Eastern Michigan needed. The offense that had consecutive three-and-out possessions had touchdowns on its next four drives, all but putting the game out of reach. Evans scored from 1 yard out to draw Eastern Michigan within 13-9 by the end of the first quarter. In the second quarter, Powell found Darius Lassiter with a 1-yard scoring strike, Evans had a 3-yard TD run and Powell and Lassiter connected on a 28-yard scoring play. Jesus Gomez booted a 51-yard field goal and Jaylon Jackson scored on a 31-yard run to round out the scoring for the Eagles. Cordeiro threw TD passes to Nick Nash and Isaiah Hamilton in the second half for the Spartans. Cordeiro led the Spartans offensively, completing 26 of 44 passes for 366 yards and three touchdowns with two interceptions. - Eastern Michigan/AP College Football

  2022 ALL-SUN BELT CONFERENCE FOOTBALL THIRD TEAM: LB - JT Killen, Coastal Carolina (RS Jr., LB - Lake Wylie, S.C.),...Killen picked up his first all-conference honor this season after sitting behind All-Sun Belt linebackers Silas Kelly and Teddy Gallagher for three years. Killen has made his mark this year in leading the CCU defense, as he has a team-high 89 total tackles and ranks in the top five on the team in tackles-for-loss (6.0), sacks (2.5), and pass breakups (4) while also adding two quarterback hurries, a forced fumble, and a team-high three fumble recoveries.

He ranks eighth in the Sun Belt in total tackles (89) and fourth in assisted tackles (62), as he is always around the football. His three fumble recoveries are tops in the league. Killen has recorded double-digit tackles in three games on the year, with a career-high 13 in the road win at ULM (Oct. 8), and 10 stops in wins at home over Buffalo (Sept. 27) and Southern Miss (Nov. 12). He has totaled five tackles or more in every game this year, showing consistency. He has also been key in helping the defense hold six different opponents to under 100 rushing yards for the game, including four conference opponents in Georgia State, Marshall, App State, and Southern Miss. - Coastal Carolina Football
