The Golden Hurricane can score points in bunches, so this will be a tough test for the Central Michigan defense, though this will be an exciting early bowl game matchup.
Central Michigan Chippewas
Central Michigan limped to a .500 finish, going 1-4 in their last 5 games. Cooper Rush has had an up and down season, but can still make the big plays when needed (Hail Mary vs Oklahoma State). In their shocking loss to Eastern Michigan a few weeks ago, he finished the game 21-35 for 256 yards.
He didn’t throw a touchdown pass and was picked off once. He isn’t a threat to beat the defense with his legs either. This will be a tough game for him and I don’t expect him to reach 200 yards through the air in this one.
Devon Spalding has been inconsistent running the ball this season for Central Michigan. He can break the 100 yard mark and score a touchdown in one game, and then the next barely reach the 50 yard mark. The Tulsa defense has had a hard time slowing teams down, so on a big stage look for him to but up huge numbers.

If the Chippewas are going to have any shot at pulling off the upset they will need to stop the passing attack Tulsa will throw at them, if they can’t force turnovers it will be a long game for them.
Tulsa Golden Hurricane
Dane Evans has been great for the Golden Hurricane offense. In the win 2 weeks ago against Cincinnati he threw for over 300 yards with 3 touchdowns and 2 interceptions.
He had a great bounce back performance after throwing for only 126 yards in the previous game. He should make throws all over the field and get the ball to his dynamic playmakers. Expect 350 yards passing and 4 touchdowns from the senior QB.
James Flowers and D’Angelo Brewer are a great one-two punch in the Tulsa backfield. Each rusher has reached the 1,000 yard mark and both are effective at finding the end zone.
Flowers has 17 touchdowns on the year and Brewer will be looking to make a strong statement for the start of the 2017 season. Look for both runners to reach 100 yards and find the end-zone.
[dfads params=’groups=219&limit=1&return_javascript=1′]
Keevan Lucas has been a consistent threat receiving the ball all season long for Tulsa. He has been a touchdown machine the last half of the season, totaling 7 touchdowns in the last 6 games. He will continue his hot play and should have 8 catches for 125 yards and a score.
