KALAMAZOO, Mich. (AP) -- Jon Wassink threw a career-high three touchdown passes, Jamauri Bogan and Jarvi Franklin both ran for more than 100 yards and Western Michigan rolled to a 49-14 win over Wagner on Saturday night.

Wassink completed his first nine passes, hitting Keishaw Watson for a pair of touchdowns, and finished 11 of 12 for 165 yards. He hit Mitch Heimbuch for an 11-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter for the freshman tight end's first career catch.

The Broncos (2-2) piled up 527 yards and limited the FCS Seahawks (1-3) to 113, helped by 13 tackles behind the line of scrimmage. Both Wagner touchdowns came after Western Michigan fumbles.
