Colgate vs Central Michigan Game Information

The Colgate Raiders will be back on the road Saturday afternoon with a 1:00 PM matchup inside Kelly/Shorts Stadium in Mount Pleasant, MI, against the Central Michigan Chippewas. Colgate is undefeated through its first 2 games of the season coming into Saturday, after a 25-point home victory a week ago. The Central Michigan Chippewas will be at home for the first time this season Saturday, winless on the year, after a 31-point road loss in New Mexico in their season opener. Stay in the action with our College Football Picks.

Colgate Preview

Jake Stearney is leading the Colgate offense this season with 437 yards and 4 touchdowns on 32 completions, along with 51 yards and 1 score on 13 carries. Danny Shaban is the top ball carrier on the roster with 308 yards and 3 touchdowns on 45 carries. Matt Fogler leads the team with 198 yards and 3 touchdowns on 10 receptions. Winston Moore has added 6 catches for 99 yards and 1 score.

Central Michigan Preview

Defensively, Central Michigan was outmatched last week, giving up 38 points on 364 total yards. Offensively, Central Michigan was terrible, scoring only 7 points on 149 yards after turning the ball over twice in the game. Jadyn Glasser led the way for Central Michigan last week, completing 4 passes for 16 yards in the game. Angel Flores completed 3 passes for 14 yards and boasted a team high of 27 yards on 10 carries. Nasir Williams added 23 yards and 1 touchdown on 1 carry.

Colgate vs Central Michigan Pick

Despite last week's loss, Central Michigan will be the better team coming into this matchup. Look for Central Michigan to play with their strengths on both sides of the ball and overwhelm an undefeated Colgate team on Saturday. Central Michigan will do enough in this matchup to get their first victory of the season, but Colgate will ride their momentum into this matchup to cover the big number.
