Ryan Radcliff threw for 202 yards and a TD for Central Michigan,
which led 21-7 at halftime. After Miami got within 21-16, Saylor
Lavallii's 10-yard touchdown run gave the Chippewas a 28-16 with
10:28 remaining.



Zac Dysert ran for a score and threw a 68-yard touchdown pass to
Nick Harwell for the RedHawks (4-7, 3-4). Dysert finished with
343 yards on 26-of-43 passing, but was sacked five times. He was
intercepted once.
