Eastern Michigan 27, Akron 7
Box Score
YPSILANTI, Mich. -- Eastern Michigan gave its 18-member senior class a memorable last game in "The Factory" off, becoming bowl eligible with a 27-7 win over the University of Akron Saturday, Nov. 10, at Rynearson Stadium. Eastern's defense led the charge once again, this time not allowing an offensive touchdown as they limited the Zips to just 90 yards of total offense while forcing 10 three-and outs.

With the win, Eastern Michigan moved to 6-5 (4-3 MAC) and is bowl eligible for the first time since the 2016 season. EMU has previously played in bowl games during the 1971, 1987, and 2016 campaigns, however, the team also had six-or-more wins in 1988, 1989, 1995, and 2011 but did not receive a bowl bid. In addition, the Eagles have won four-straight MAC battles for the first time since the 1995 season. Conversely, with the loss, Akron drops to 4-5 overall and 2-4 in the league.  Full Story...
