KALAMAZOO, Mich. -- After another glorious moment in Western Michigans remarkable turnaround, P.J. Fleck was happy to look back on his first season with the Broncos, when he managed only one win in 2013 as a rookie coach.Im so thankful for 1-11, he said. Itll probably be the most memorable year ever in my mind, because failing is growth and we failed more than anybody in the country, but our perspective of failing was way different, and we wouldnt let each other be down.The 21st-ranked Broncos have come a long way since then, and on Friday night they capped an undefeated regular season in style, routing Toledo 55-35 to secure a berth next week in the Mid-American Conference championship game. Corey Davis became the career FBS leader in yards receiving, and WMU never trailed, advancing to the league title game for the first time since 2000.It was a milestone moment for Fleck, who turns 36 on Tuesday. His row the boat mantra has caught on in a big way at WMU, with fans chanting it and players savoring the chance to play for high stakes as the postseason approaches.Those who would stay, we promise you, you would be a champion, Fleck said, appropriating Bo Schembechlers old saying at Michigan. Were not a full MAC champion yet, but were a MAC West champion. Those who stay, the 1-11 guys, they all get to leave here a champion.The Broncos (12-0, 8-0, No. 14 AP) scored a defensive touchdown on the first play from scrimmage and eventually broke it open in the third quarter. WMU will face Ohio in the MAC title game in Detroit next Friday night, and its looking more and more like the Broncos will be playing for a spot in a major bowl.Kareem Hunt ran for 200 yards and a touchdown for Toledo, but there was only so much he could do after the Rockets (9-3, 6-2) fell way behind in the second half.Zach Terrell went 19 of 25 for 196 yards and three touchdowns for WMU, and Davis caught eight passes for 81 yards and a TD. Davis broke the career mark of 5,005 yards receiving set by Trevor Insley of Nevada from 1996-99.Jamauri Bogan also had a big day for WMU, rushing for 198 yards and a TD.Toledo received the opening kickoff, but Logan Woodsides pass on the first play from scrimmage was intercepted by Asantay Brown, whose 21-yard return gave the Broncos a 7-0 lead.WMU led 24-14 at halftime, then outscored the Rockets 21-0 in the third quarter.Its really hard to run the table in college football and go undefeated as you know, Toledo coach Jason Candle said. Hats off to their staff and their players for getting that accomplished.WMU fans rushed the field after the game in celebration.Weve come so far, and weve struggled so much, Davis said. Just to see the smiles on these guys faces and the fans light up, its just a blessing.THE TAKEAWAYToledo: The Rockets have been one of the MACs most consistently solid teams in recent years, but they havent made the league title game since 2004. Northern Illinois represented the West Division the past six years, and this season WMU has been dominant, leaving Toledo again on the outside looking in.WMU: If there was any pressure on the Broncos because of their undefeated record, it didnt show Friday. Against a tough opponent, WMU was simply terrific, winning by the kind of one-sided score that could certainly catch the attention of the playoff committee. The Broncos could go to a New Years Six bowl if they end up as the top league champion from the Group of Five conferences.WMU and Alabama are the only FBS teams that are undefeated, and Boise States loss to Air Force on Friday derailed one major competitor in the race for that top Group of Five spot.People can label us, put a number on us. We wont. Were going to define ourselves by how we play, Fleck said. Everybody else can talk about our program, say whats missing, say all those things, what conference were in. Were proud to be in the Mid-American Conference, and I would not have it any other way. This is an elite program, elite school, 12-0. Theres only two that are undefeated right now, and its pretty hard to go undefeated.INJURYIt wasnt a great fourth quarter for WMU. Linebacker Caleb Bailey was ejected for targeting, and safety Justin Ferguson was taken off on a stretcher with what Fleck described as a gruesome ankle injury. Ferguson, a senior, drew a nice ovation as he was taken off the field in the final home game of the year.UP NEXTToledo: The Rockets will certainly have a chance to go to a bowl. Hunt is now 24 yards shy of the schools career rushing record. Chester Taylor holds the mark of 4,849 yards.WMU: Somebody is going to win the MAC for the first time in quite a while. The Broncos havent done it since 1988, and Ohios last conference title was back in 1968. Cheap Sneakers Near Me . John Lucas, signed as a mentor for rookie Trey Burke, showed he can score if required, scoring 12 points of his 16 points in the second quarter as Utah built an 18-point lead.

LOUIS -- Theres no telling how these wacky World Series games will end. PHILADELPHIA -- The key to Maikel Francos success is not trying to do too much.Franco hit a go-ahead two-run home run in the seventh inning and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-4 on Thursday night.I just go try to put the ball in play, put good contact on it, Franco said. When you try to do too much, youre not being someone you have to be.Ryan Howard also homered for Philadelphia, which avoided a three-game series sweep.After all the home runs they hit against us, we finally beat them with a home run, Phillies manager Pete Mackanin said. That was huge.Justin Turner and Yasmani Grandal went deep for the Dodgers, who began play 1 1/2 games in front of the San Francisco Giants in the NL West.Thats a game that leaves a sour taste, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. Its a win we had late. We had a lead late.Michael Mariot (1-0) pitched a scoreless seventh inning in relief of Jerad Eickhoff to earn the victory.Freddy Galvis led off the bottom of the seventh with a single and Franco followed with his 22nd homer, to deep center off Grant Dayton (0-1) to give the Phillies a 5-4 lead.It was a fastball right down the middle and I put good contact on it -- nothing else, Franco said.Jeanmar Gomez pitched a 1-2-3 ninth for his 32nd save in 35 opportunities.Eickhoff gave up four runs and seven hits in six innings with eight strikeouts and two walks. The right-hander snapped an eight-game streak in which Philadelphia starters pitched fewer than six innings -- one game short of matching the club record.Hes got a bulldog mentality, Mackanin said. He means business when he goes out there. Tonight it wasnt the greatest, and he got burned, but he threw an awful lot of good curveballs.The Dodgers jumped on Eickhoff quickly as the first three batters of the game scored to put Los Angeles ahead. Chase Utley and Corey Seager singled and Turner connected on his 23rd homer.Utleys throwing error in the second led to an unearned run as Aaron Altherrs RBI single brought Philadelphia to 3-1.Grandals one-out solo homer, his 20th, off the scoreboard in right in the fourth inning made it 4-1.Howard led off the bottom of the inning with his 19th homer of the season, a booming shot to center, to move into a tie with Carlton Fisk for 75th all-time with his 376th career home run.ddddddddddddHoward has 11 homers in his last 28 starts and is batting .357 since the All-Star break.Hes been swinging the bat as well as Ive seen him in a long time, Mackanin said.And Philadelphia closed to 4-3 on Featherstons double to left-center.Featherston started at second base in place of Cesar Hernandez, who was a late scratch due to a sore foot.Dodgers starter Ross Stripling gave up three runs -- two earned -- and six hits in five innings.

There also were no fans in the first three rows in the sections directly above the scoreboard. In a statement, the Phillies said the scoreboard wasnt a threat to fall but fans were moved for precautionary measures. The problem with a bracket supporting protective netting in front of the scoreboard was to be corrected after the game, the team said.TRAINERS ROOMDodgers: RHP Bud Norris, sidelined since Aug. 1 due to a back strain, will be activated from the DL and start the weekend series opener at Cincinnati.Phillies: Hernandez said he will be in the lineup on Friday.UP NEXTDodgers: Norris (6-9, 4.26) will make his first start since July 31 in the opener of the four-game series, facing Reds RHP Tim Adleman (1-1, 3.73).Phillies: LHP Adam Morgan (1-7, 6.62) starts on Friday night when the Phillies host the Cardinals for the first of three games.
