There may not be two more underrated coaches in the Group of Five than Eastern Michigan’s Chris Creighton and San Jose State’s Brent Brennan. Their teams square off in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl. Here's what you need to know.
Creighton is a longtime head coach who worked his way from the NAIA to Division III to the FCS before taking over at EMU in 2014. Since arriving in Ypsilanti, Creighton has led the Eagles to five of the seven bowl bids in program history. This year’s team has posted the first eight-win season since 1987. He’s had just five losing seasons in 26 years as a college head coach. His teams have always leaned on the run, and the 2022 Eagles are no different.
The Spartans rank fourth from the bottom in the FBS with 1,017 rushing yards but have thrown for 20 TDs against four interceptions.Formerly the starter at Hawaii, Chevan Cordeiro pulled off the in-conference transfer this past offseason and did as good a job as any quarterback in the country at avoiding turnovers. He threw for 20 touchdowns against four interceptions, completing 61% of passes.
