Minnesota defensive back KiAnte Hardin (3) takes a photo with quarterback Mitch Leidner (7) after their Quick Lane Bowl NCAA college football game against Central Michigan, Monday, Dec. 28, 2015, in Detroit.
According to Sports Illustrated, Central Michigan is a team that has the kind of potent passing attack that can cause problems for any opponent. “I’ve been trying not to think about (the injury), honestly”. Besides Minnesota, the Nebraska Cornhuskers and the San Jose State Spartans made a bowl game with a 5-7 regular season record.
Hamilton said he enjoyed his time at Central, with one of his main highlights being able to play for Bonamego, who underwent successful cancer treatment over the summer. “You get in ballgames like that and it gets tight at the end, and you’ve got to have a play to win, your leaders do that”.

It was intercepted by Briean Boddy-Calhoun at the Gopher 35 with just over 2 minutes to play. They’ll play in the Quick Lane Bowl against Minnesota on Monday in Detroit. Leidner finished the season with 2,701 yards, 14 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. It lifted the Chippewas to a 14-13 lead.
“Looking back, probably should have just ate it”, the Central Michigan quarterback said.
It came when Minnesota turned the ball over on downs at the Chippewas 44-yard line. Its 10-7 lead held up the rest of the half. Corey Willis led the team with four receptions for 51 yards, while Ben McCord chipped in 42 reception yards from the hand of Rush.
If this game turns out anything like that one, the Ford Field fans are going to love it. Then again, both these teams feature tough pass defenses and poor running games, so a shootout seems unlikely.
