Christmas has come and passed and now we move onto the Bowl games that will take place that last week of 2021. The first bowl to take place during the last week of 2021 is none other than the Quick Lane Bowl at Ford Field. This matchup will be between Western Michigan (7-5) and Nevada (8-4). The MAC going up against the Mountain West who has been very good in these bowl games so far. With that being said here is my preview for the Quick Lane Bowl.
Western Michigan
The Western Michigan Broncos have a high-powered offense that is very high around the country in all categories offensively. 18th in total yards per game (480.1), 61st in passing yards per game, 44th in rushing yards per game, and 49th in points per game. This Western Michigan offense is legit and is led by a solid running back duo of Sean Tyler and La’Darius Jefferson. Tyler has just over 1,000 rushing yards on the season and averages 6.1 yards per carry. Jefferson has 836 rushing yards on the year and averages about 4.5 yards per carry. Combined the duo has close to two thousand rushing yards and 19 total touchdowns on the season.
Now we move onto the quarterback play and Kalev Eleby is a solid quarterback for this team. Eleby has thrown for 3,115 passing yards to go along with a touchdown to interception ratio of 21/5. His main target is none other than Skyy Moore. Moore has 90 receptions on the season, 1,247 receiving yards (12th in the nation) and added 10 receiving touchdowns as well. So, for as good as this offense has been, the defense has let them down in certain spots this season. They give up close to 30 points per game and give up close to 360 total yards of offense per game as well. So, this defense will need to bring their A game against this Nevada squad in order to win this matchup.
