Western Michigan won its second-ever bowl game as a program in its home state, jumping all over Nevada early and cruising to a win in the Quick Lane Bowl. Nevada did enjoy the element of surprise in the early stages of the game thanks to the overwhelming number of absences from the team that got the Wolf Pack to this game.

So when backup quarterback Nate Cox led two scoring drives in the first 20 minutes of the game, it inspired some belief in this undermanned Nevada squad. But Western Michigan made good adjustments defensively, and Nevada's defense had a difficult time getting stops. Each of the Broncos' first five possessions ended in scores with four reaching the end zone, and by the time they punted for the first time, it was a point game in the third quarter.
