Chips Blast Red Hawks, 54-17

Oxford, OH -- Central Michigan's defining trait of the 2013-14 college football season has been a dominant defense. Ranked #24 in the nation for rushing yards allowed and #33 for passing yards allowed, the Chippewas have put together a string of strong defensive performances. It was on full display against the Miami (OH) Red Hawks.

Central's turnover machine generated four interceptions, two of which were returned for scores. At the end of the day, CMU hung a season-high 54 points on their MAC foes. The offense was no slouch, either, accounting for 318 total yards to MIA(OH)'s 260. The running game turned out a combined 217 yards and five scores between Zurlon Tipton and Saylor Lavallii. Quarterback Cody Kater had a forgettable performance, going 8-of-17 for 167 yards with zero points.

On the win, Head Coach Jonathan Boyd was all smiles. "We have a game plan every week, and the emphasis is always to play your best. That's no different than usual. Today, they played their best. That's CMU football."

The Chippewas will continue their conference play and stay in the state of Ohio next week as they take on the Ohio Bobcats.
