Quarterback Broc Lowry and Jalen Buckley each ran for a touchdown on Tuesday night to help Western Michigan beat Ohio 17-13 and take sole possession of first place in the Mid-American Conference. Western Michigan (6-4, 5-1) has a half-game lead over Miami (Ohio) and Buffalo in the conference standings, both of which have a half-game lead over Ohio (6-4, 4-2). Tailique Williams caught a pass from Broc Lowry behind the line of scrimmage and broke numerous tackles before he was brought down for a 71-yard game and, on the next play, Jalen Buckley ran for a 3-yard TD that gave Western Michigan a 17-13 lead with 13:43 left in the game.

Chase Hallock picked off a pass and returned it 37 yards to set up a 46-yard field goal by Palmer Domschke that opened the scoring about five minutes into the first quarter and Lowry's 1-yard TD run early in the third quarter gave the Broncos a 10-7 lead. Parker Navarro ran for a 2-yard touchdown late in the first quarter and Sieh Bangura capped a 17-play, 83-yard drive that took more than 10 minutes off the clock with a 3-yard scoring run on the first play of the fourth quarter that made it 13-10 after David Dellenbach's PAT attempt was no good. The Broncos honored former Western Michigan and Dallas Cowboys defensive end Marshawn Kneeland, who died on Thursday. On the team's Senior Night, players held a jersey with Kneeland's No. 99 on it and wore helmet decals that read "MK 99." His number was also painted on the football field. - Western Michigan/AP College Football

01/11/23 - Christian Leary, rSr/2026, Western Michigan, 5-09, 180 (DS#142 WR) + More +

Christian Leary, a wide receiver who spent the past two seasons at Alabama, announced Sunday that he is transferring to Georgia Tech. It is a change of direction for Leary, who entered the NCAA transfer portal in December and announced Dec. 13 that he was transferring to Central Florida. Leary made the announcement Sunday on Instagram. He did not reveal the reason for the switch.

Instead of becoming the third former Alabama player to join Gus Malzahn at UCF, Leary will instead join a Georgia Tech program led by former Tide offensive line coach Brent Key. Leary, who is from Orlando, was a four-star recruit in Alabama's 2021 class ranked No. 75 nationally in 247 Sports' rankings. He switched to running back during his freshman season when injuries struck that position before returning to wide receiver in 2022. He caught one pass for 6 yards this season while appearing mostly on special teams. - Birmingham News
