QB Kaleb Eleby had a stellar game for the Broncos as he passed for five TDs and 382 yards on 20 attempts in addition to punching in one rushing touchdown. Near the top of the highlight reel was Eleby's 85-yard TD bomb to WR D'Wayne Eskridge in the third quarter. WR Jaylen Hall was in the mix, too, providing WMU with two touchdowns.
A silver lining for CMU was the play of WR Kalil Pimpleton, who rushed for three TDs and 108 yards on seven carries. One of the most memorable plays of the matchup was Pimpleton's 65-yard touchdown rush in the first quarter.
CMU's overall record fell to 2-1. The Broncos' victory brought them up to 3-0.
