TOP 25 : Ball State keeps record perfect
Posted on Thursday, November 20, 2008
MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. — Nate Davis threw four touchdown passes, and No. 14 Ball State survived a scare from Central Michigan on Wednesday night in a 31-24 victory that gave the Cardinals a school-record for victories in a season.
The victory also clinched a share of the West Division of the Mid-American Conference for Ball State (11-0, 7-0 ), which has never played in the league title game. The Cardinals can win the division outright with a victory over Western Michigan on Nov. 25.
Davis hit Briggs Orsbon in the corner of the end zone from 11 yards out with 7: 29 left to give Ball State a 31-24 lead. Central Michigan (8-3, 6-1 ) had a chance to tie it in the closing minutes, but Dan LeFevour was intercepted by Sean Baker at the Ball State 15 with 35 seconds left.
