The Central Michigan Chippewas will be without three starters for today’s game.
Second leading tackler and LB Alex Briones, TE Logan Hessbrook, and team captain and WR Devon Spalding are all out and did not make the trip to Lexington today.
Also, it has been reported by KSR’s Drew Franklin that Benny Snell was sick this morning and missed the pregame meal. His status is unknown, but according to Franklin we may see a heavy dose of AJ Rose and Sihiem King.
Those two are fully capable of carrying the workload, but it would still be a big loss for the Cats, not to mention a bad way for Snell to begin what may be his final season in Lexington.
You’d also like to see new quarterback Terry Wilson have his best weapon in the backfield next to him today.
Source says Benny Snell missed pregame meal this morning and is feeling very sick. It may be a big afternoon for Rose/King.

Not an ideal way to start the season, but stay tuned. Go Cats!
Update: Benny seems to be feeling better.
